easy to find the workshop as we toom a taxi. located in a quiet area. staff explained to us about the different types of Taiwanese jade and also comparing it to imported jades from Indonesia, South Africa etc. Each of us get to choose a jade design we like before doing own polishing. The staff was there whenever we needed help on our jade. my family is very satisfied with our own jades.

This was amazing! We highly recommend the moonlight treasure box making. Everyone was so friendly, helpful and inclusive. The tutor worked one-on-one with our group for the entire time. This session was extremely fun, enjoyable, easy and entertaining.

Amazing Experience! The women are so lovely, warm, kind, and patient. All the proceeds go directly to a charity organization helping local when and children. You will have the opportunity to make your own glass bread in a pattern of your choosing under the careful instruction of a teacher and translator (app assisted) if you do not speak Chinese. Then you will be able to weave your own souvenir. I highly recommend and it all goes towards a great cause!

Today we went to Fushoushan, Lishan, and Hehuanshan to enjoy the sunset. Thanks to Xiao Hao Moose for his careful driving throughout the trip and his excellent knowledge of the road conditions, allowing everyone to arrive safely and smoothly at their designated locations. The trip was safe, secure, and enjoyable.

If you are solo traveler grab this tour! if english tour is not available in the menu, choose mandarin tour and many foreigners are also joining or local that you can blend in. so perfect! so no need to worry if the speaker is taiwanese because he will tell you the time to come back in english. He will give you plenty of time for each location. No pressure at all. Also Hualien is so Amazing! the nature itself is incredible! You must visit! and I will come back again sometime.

It's really fun 🧨🧨 The ATV route is arranged reasonably, with flat areas, slopes, and waterways. The timing is also suitable to get used to the vehicle. The most recommended is the coach's professional posing guidance. Every photo is exquisite and unparalleled. It's really a group of photographers whose work has been delayed by coaching 🎊🎊 115-02-17

There's a free shuttle from Xincheng Station, and the ATV was a lot of fun and totally worth it. The instructor helped us take lots of beautiful photos, which was great. Also, the photos taken at the Mirror of the Sky were beautiful and unique, making it a really fun experience.
