Fantastic 5.0
Last year there was an earthquake, and I was a little worried about the tour because I don't speak Chinese and my English isn't fluent, but to sum it up, it was the best tour ever. Unfortunately, it will take some time for the gorge to be fully restored, but it was still wonderful. Thanks to Tommy guide's kind guidance and wit, I was able to finish the tour from beginning to end without any shortcomings. If I visit Taiwan again, I will definitely come to Hualien again! Thank you so much for leaving me with such a good memory~

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.

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.

Great 4.0
The instructors are very friendly, providing detailed explanations and patient one-on-one guidance. Completing the artwork is very rewarding. However, the packaging could be more careful. In addition to the plastic zip-lock bag, I recommend providing bubble wrap to prevent the glass beads from breaking upon impact.

I had fun exploring Southern Taiwan with this 3 day pass. Very easy to use, it comes with a booklet that you'll get from the HSR counter. You can book your HSR in advance through the website, can even change your time of departure when you go to the counter. My accomodation is in Taipei and the day trips in Taichung and Tainan was just a breeze. HSR also provides free shuttle bus between HSR station to the main city, just research for the bus number. You have to go through the staff at the gates to pass through, they will inspect the booklet. I'll comeback to explore more of South Taiwan!

The car rental location is conveniently located just outside the front station exit, a short walk to the right. They also provide a waterproof phone holder and two raincoats. The vehicles are very new and in excellent condition. If you exceed the rental time, there's an additional charge of $50 per hour.
