I often travel north and south, so there are many opportunities to take the high-speed rail. Klook is a good way to buy high-speed rail tickets. I will continue to use it.

The popular swimming pool will lend you bathrobe-sized towels and slippers, which you can take home. You only need to bring a swimsuit. A shower cap is provided for your hair. The price on-site on weekdays is 800 yuan. You can save a lot by buying the coupon online for 529 yuan per person. The pool part is open-air, so if it rains, you will get wet. The temperature is about 40 degrees, which is not too high. I am a bit dissatisfied with the strength of the water column in the SPA pool. It is also weak. There is another area where it feels like water is being sprinkled. I still like the SPA in Jiaoxi Chuantang in Yilan. The water column is super strong. The spring water is a bit off-white and has a light sulfur smell. The pool is small and not large. There is no steam room or oven. The valet fee for the valet is 100 yuan. On-site swimsuits for boys are 490. Yuan for girls is 2,000 yuan

It is recommended to buy from here for high-speed rail because it is really convenient and cheap. You can order at a discounted price as long as you purchase additional items, so I recommend it to everyone.

The lighting effect of the exhibition hall is very good, and the ticket comes with a guided tour. Taking the guided tour around seems like experiencing a wonderful show. I recommend you to experience it when you have time!
