The room is quite large and has a bathtub. Parking is free at Carrefour next door. The TV has theater-style speakers, but you can hear it from the corridor outside. It's quite quiet. The bed is a double king size and very comfortable.

Remarkable Landmarks and Must-Visit Sights

Rainbow Village

Originally built as military family homes, Rainbow Village is now a colorful masterpiece created by Huang Yong-fu, also known as Rainbow Grandfather. The village is adorned with lively and fun artwork, showcasing the artistic talent of an elderly man with no formal training.

Feng Chia Night Market

Culture and History

Rainbow Village's origins date back to the early days of the Kuomintang's presence in Taiwan, serving as temporary homes for soldiers and their families. Saved from demolition by Huang Yong-fu, the village now stands as a symbol of resilience and creativity.

Local Cuisine

While exploring Rainbow Village, don't miss the chance to try the rainbow ice cream offered by roadside vendors. Refreshing and not overly sweet, it's the perfect treat to enjoy under the hot Taichung sun.
