Simply scan the QR code to redeem your experience ticket. The scallion pancake making process is taught in detail, with several staff members assisting participants. After about 30 minutes of preparation, the pancakes will be immediately taken to be fried. Approximately 15 minutes later, you can enjoy your freshly made scallion pancakes on the spot. Experience: Good

We booked this trip on a whim, and it turned out to be unexpectedly fun and satisfying. We made delicious scallion pancakes and had the experience of picking our own scallions and harvesting jabuticaba berries. The kids were absolutely thrilled. Highly recommend!

Even though I had a composition in mind, my skills couldn't quite keep up, haha. I wanted to create a realistic, gradient-style traditional Chinese painting, but it ended up looking a bit messy. I hope it still looks decent after firing. I'd like to try again next time, but waiting for the finished product takes so long!

It's quite fun and interesting. Essentially, what you make is no different from what's sold, but you can't choose the flavors, and making 10 pieces in 30 minutes is a bit tiring... It's better to do it with friends or a partner.

The Red Turtle Cake DIY experience was incredibly fun! Not only did we get to experience making a traditional Taiwanese delicacy firsthand, but we also learned a lot of interesting facts about Red Turtle Cakes. It was truly a rewarding experience 🤍 Under the guidance of our instructor, we successfully made our own Red Turtle Cakes and even got to eat them right away 😋 It's true that food you make yourself always tastes extra delicious! It's wonderful to see a group of people quietly promoting traditional Taiwanese culture, ensuring these precious cultural elements are preserved and seen by more people 😽🫶🏻

Bringing children here for a DIY experience is great; the venue is spacious and bright, and there are many time slots to choose from, which is very convenient for travelers. There's also plenty of parking. During the activity, the instructor was very patient in teaching the children, and they could take their creations home to enjoy. The kids felt a great sense of accomplishment! 👍

The experience at the tourist factory was quite good. You can arrive early, and there are many products available for tasting. The staff aren't stingy or pushy with sales. For the DIY activity, there's a video tutorial to start, plus the instructor's explanation. Kids can simply assemble the items, so it doesn't take too much time. We were lucky enough to make the strawberry flavor, and the strawberries were very juicy!
