A museum well worth visiting, with detailed explanations of the entire Lanyang Plain and the history and culture of Yilan. I spent about two hours there. Then when you come outside, you can take pictures 📷. The building is also really beautiful ❤️.

The park is kept very clean, and the keepers provide detailed explanations. The animals inside are friendly and not afraid of people, living and growing up in a loving environment. Highly recommended!

The underground parking is a mechanical parking system. There are also parking spaces in the open area in front of the hotel, but they are usually full at night. The rooms are small. There's a complimentary late-night snack from 8 PM to 10 PM where you can cook your own noodles. They provide various types of noodles, two kinds of vegetables, as well as minced pork sauce and mung bean soup, which is very delicious. Breakfast is okay.

The overall environment is clean and comfortable. The double room is spacious and includes a bathtub. The food is also pretty good, and the transportation is fairly convenient. I would stay here again if I have the chance.

A great value hotel that I've visited many times. The service is excellent, and the rooms have a hot spring bathtub and a washlet. The TV doesn't have cable, but it offers various streaming platforms, and Disney+ is free to watch. The breakfast is decent, and the restaurant offers complimentary afternoon tea, including drinks, fruit, and popsicles. The downside is that the blackout curtains in the room aren't thick enough, so it's easy for the morning sun to affect sleep. I recommend wearing an eye mask when sleeping. The room's air conditioning allows you to adjust the fan speed, but the temperature doesn't seem to be controllable. Although the temperature numbers can be adjusted, the actual temperature always remains at 22 degrees Celsius. For travelers driving, I recommend parking in the B1 parking lot, as B2 is not easy to park in. Overall, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, and I will definitely visit again. Highly recommended!

This is my third time staying here. It's great that they offer a midnight snack. The breakfast doesn't have a huge variety, but it's enough to fill you up. I'll definitely stay here again.

This horseback riding experience was very relaxing, and the horses were adorable. The instructor was attentive, guiding us step-by-step through posture and control, which helped us quickly get the hang of it. Even beginners can enjoy the process with peace of mind. Overall, it was a very comfortable and pleasant experience.
