What to expect

Taichung, a city rarely talked about, may not be as popular as Taipei or as hot as Kaohsiung, but it exudes a leisurely and comfortable atmosphere, making you unconsciously slow down and feel the delicacy and beauty of life here, enjoying every moment in a light and breezy way. Follow the tour guide to stroll around the nostalgic old railway station and experience the Harry Potter-esque fun at Miyahara. This is also a great place to buy souvenirs, such as pineapple cakes, sun cakes, and cheese cakes, with exquisite packaging and unforgettable flavors. You can also personally experience making sun cakes at the Sun Cake Museum, embarking on an interesting and leisurely journey, and fully enjoy the leisurely taste of local life.

The tour guide is very attentive and answers all questions. It is great to be able to adjust the itinerary according to the physical condition of the group members. It’s because our group strength is too weak and we talk too much🤣

Making suncakes by hand is really great, and you can make them yourself! Through this event, I have a better understanding of Taichung's history and past prosperity! Many old buildings hide in everyday life! Miyahara Eye Clinic also has a story~

Good hands on experience at suncake museum and very nice staff whom can handle kid well as she helped to engage my 2yo in the pastry making. While the walking tour probably would be best to organise a more local sightseeing places as we were introduced and walked around this Asean building which we are already very familiar and nothing special for people from sg/my/indo. However, the tour guide is nice and helpful whom took alot of pictures for us.

Our tour guide Ivy took us around the famous attractions in Taichung, clearly introduced the characteristics of the place, and took us a lot of beautiful photos. She took us to eat the authentic shaved ice and spent a pleasant half day.
