Hsinchu

This is a very special store. The ceiling allows people of all ages to freely express their creativity, making it very memorable, as everyone's unique characteristics are displayed on the ceiling. Although I've made Lei Cha elsewhere, I went there to use a discount coupon, and the value was just okay (the bread was only given after I reminded them, and the portion size was average 😂).

The handmade process is very therapeutic and fun. The staff is very kind. You can choose your own raw ore, cauliflower, and essential oils. You can get corresponding answers through the Book of Answers, and they are very much in line with your current situation, which is very magical~~ Finally, a small essential oil is given away at the end of the course.

Although the journey was long and bumpy, I really appreciate the tour guide, Qiang Qiang, for taking us hiking for two days and driving us back to Taipei for several hours! The hike wasn't too difficult, and this itinerary is very friendly for hiking beginners who like to explore nature. Although we didn't see the cherry blossoms in full bloom, the scenery along the way was worth remembering. Immersed in the mountains surrounding Smangus, a Tayal tribe village located deep in the mountains has its own culture and way of life, which is the purity and tranquility that cannot be seen in the city. The children of Xinguang Elementary School riding bicycles on the only small road left a deep impression on me. The grandma at Yaya Homestay kept urging us to eat well because it was cold in the mountains, as if she was treating her own grandchildren, and she actively offered more food. This human touch makes people feel warm. I would want to go back again, and it's worth recommending!

Tour guide Bratt Kao was great, the weather was good, and the kids were very happy after visiting the zoo 😃. Nanliao Fishing Port and the sea-sky line scenic spot were very windy, and the kids couldn't stand it, so they left immediately after seeing it, which meant arriving at Meishan Crab Trail early, before the tide had receded. The tour guide temporarily arranged a visit to the Mazu Temple and Baoan Temple to pray, as well as a short break at a cafe, to wait for the tide to recede before going back to see it again. As a result, they were able to see mudskippers and crabs ☺️. Really appreciate Bratt for making it a fulfilling day for the kids.

smooth travel from Taipei to Taichung~ we get to visit the Capoo House and Foamcat Cafe. Enjoyed Miyahara and Old Taichung Station which also has another Foamcat Cafe. We really enjoyed our day trip!

I had fun exploring Southern Taiwan with this 3 day pass. Very easy to use, it comes with a booklet that you'll get from the HSR counter. You can book your HSR in advance through the website, can even change your time of departure when you go to the counter. My accomodation is in Taipei and the day trips in Taichung and Tainan was just a breeze. HSR also provides free shuttle bus between HSR station to the main city, just research for the bus number. You have to go through the staff at the gates to pass through, they will inspect the booklet. I'll comeback to explore more of South Taiwan!

The car was new and smoke-free. The driver was very nice. We booked a ride to Leofoo Village, but our destination was Leofoo Resort Guanshi. The driver was thoughtful enough to take us to Leofoo Resort Guanshi. He drove very smoothly and his driving skills were excellent. A great driver.

Our driver arrived 15 minutes early. Our driver, 小楊 (Yang), always helped us get in and out of the car, which we really appreciated. I also forgot to include two locations in the Changhua itinerary I sent beforehand, but he accommodated them very well without any issue. He even recommended a really delicious rou bao (肉包) near Lukang Longshan Temple—after tasting it, we ended up buying a whole box to eat at the hotel. Communication via LINE was smooth and easy. He also played great music during the drive; I honestly wish I knew his playlist. We had a very pleasant and comfortable drive to and from Lukang. Highly recommended.
