What to expect

During the Japanese occupation, the influx of Japanese immigrants was particularly great in the Hualien area, a period of history that is still very much in evidence today. This half day tour takes you on a journey to discover these touches of Japanese style and architecture, which have created a beautiful fusion of heritage, unique to the east coast. Begin at Jian Chinxiu Temple, a traditional Japanese Takono-style temple built for a large number of Japanese in the area in 1917. Onwards to Liyu Lake where, on a clear day, the mirror-like reflections of Liyu mountain and the cotton clouds above make for spectacular photos. Get your final culture fix at the Hualien Creative and Cultural Park. Housed in a former Japanese winery, this collection of contemporary galleries, exhibition halls, boutique shops, teahouses, and artist residences showcase cutting-edge Taiwanese art and creativity in a modern factory restoration

Review for: Afternoon Tour: 13:00(at donwtown hotel) / 13:30 (Hualien Transfer Station)

Although the driver is not talkative, his driving is reassuring and smooth, and he shows up at the appointed place on time. This kind of seriousness and responsibility is admirable.

Review for: 花蓮縱谷半日遊

It was a bit worrying to book this for the first time, but I was very satisfied after the experience!!!! Mr. Tang is very enthusiastic and quite familiar with the historical customs of Hualien in the area. The time and contact on the itinerary are very satisfactory, the only pity The hobbit house is not open, so I can only take pictures.

A pity that it’s a gloomy rainy day. Nonetheless we get to visit everything on the itinerary. Considering it is a round trip from your hotel, it is quite high in CP value. I will recommend it.

This time, I participated in the klook half-day tour, which is a scenic spot that I have never been to. The Liyu Lake and the cloud landscape are really beautiful. If you don’t drive in Hualien, you can consider participating in the tour (Mr. Sam’s cafe is closed on Thursday, and you can only take pictures outside)

The nine-seater car is easy to move, and the scenic spots are very distinctive. The coming season is catching up with the beautiful Tajima pine, which is very worthwhile.
