Yilan: Aula de Culinária da Vida Rural

Thank you for meticulously arranging our interactions with locals, leading us to taste extraordinary local snacks and make small refreshments. A very good experience. This is a highly recommended cultural experience that includes conversation with different locals, tastes of Yilan and hands-on activities.

A truly wonderful experience! "Young Grandpa" took us to Yilan City's market to buy groceries and visit various shops, all while introducing us to local culture. We explored hidden corners that tourists wouldn't typically find, and he introduced us to unique local products. Afterwards, we went to an old farmhouse to make authentic local dishes. While not made with expensive ingredients, everything was incredibly fresh and delicious (including "Yichuanxin," which I initially had no idea what it was!). The rice was homegrown purple rice, and it was so fragrant! After the meal, we toured several old houses and farmlands, learning about different crops, which was very interesting. It's a shame we couldn't experience any farming activities in winter. At first, I thought the price was a bit high, but the hosts' warm hospitality and thorough preparations made for a very fulfilling and therapeutic day! The host couple are also very dedicated to preserving and promoting agriculture and local culture, and they absolutely deserve support!
