Taichung-ல் செய்ய வேண்டியவை

It was our first time in our Taichung and we’re glad that we booked Klook tour since it was very convenient and there was ample time for us to go through each attractions. We booked June so it is very hot & humid; just a tip to bring e-fan and wear airy clothes. Aside from that, it was perfect that we were grouped with Tour Guide Superman Eric— he was very informative and cool all throughout.

Alicia was a sweet, knowledge, and skilled tour guide! The tour was ran smoothly and had lots of chances to take photos, buy food + souvenirs, and take in the beautiful sights. As someone studying abroad in Taichung for a month with only weekends available, this was a great and affordable (compared to US prices) way to experience Alishan.

The itinerary deserves a perfect score, and first, I'd like to express my gratitude to our driver and guide, Brother Ken! Brother Ken arrived very early to pick us up and took thoughtful care of everyone. Our first stop was Cingjing Farm. The journey wasn't short, and the mountain roads were winding, making me wonder if it would be boring, but it wasn't at all. Brother Ken started sharing many interesting local stories even before we began ascending the mountain, which was incredibly entertaining. He would share details about every place we passed. On the way up, we saw trucks transporting cabbages down from the high mountains, and we got a sense of the indigenous people's way of life, culture, and art. Even the place names we passed had their own history. Thanks to Brother Ken, I learned so much about Nantou. The mountains in Nantou are truly beautiful. Stepping into the vast mountains, I truly understood what it means to see layers of green peaks. The mountains seemed endless. Occasionally, we'd pass by cliffs, and in the distance, we could see riverbeds. It was the dry season, so they looked like shallow, scratch-like marks, with a few shimmering, wide, thin mirrors reflecting on them. The scenery was captivating. Upon arriving at the farm, the weather was perfect. Time seemed to stand still under the blue sky and white clouds, and we gradually felt the temperature becoming cooler. Sheep trotted on the slopes, creating little 'flowers' on the lush green grass. The walking path was built along the mountain, and a few horses grazed in the flat area below. In the distance, the continuous mountain ranges were hazy, only their general outlines remaining, blending into the azure sky. We walked along the path to the exit, where Brother Ken picked us up for lunch before taking us to our second destination, Sun Moon Lake. Getting out of the car, I was immediately drawn to the surface of Sun Moon Lake. It was more expansive than I imagined, with an emerald-like surface that seemed bottomless. Just then, fragmented sunlight fell upon it, creating shimmering ripples, like light, thin silk stretching and unfurling in the wind. Taking a boat tour of the lake was exhilarating. The breeze was refreshing, reducing some of the early summer heat. Brother Ken continued to provide explanations, deepening our impression of Sun Moon Lake. The boat stopped at several piers, and in the shallow waters near the shore, we could faintly see small fish. I guessed the fish were as happy as I was. During our free time, we walked to the Yuchi Township Farmers' Association's Ita Thao branch and bought Ruby Black Tea. It felt like a must-do to bring back some black tea from Sun Moon Lake. The Assam milk tea we bought from a roadside shop was also delicious. On the boat ride back, we could see the cable cars, adding to the relaxed atmosphere. Sun Moon Lake at sunset, with its water becoming deeper and more profound, gently smoothed away all worries. Even though we were reluctant to leave, it was time to head back. Brother Ken drove us back, again carefully reminding us to gather our personal belongings. On the way back, we watched the sun set, and the fields along the highway turned golden. The lingering warmth of the sun gradually faded, and our phone galleries filled with more and more photos. I thought to myself how truly happy this day had been, and it had passed by so quickly. As night fell, we finally returned to Taichung, and Brother Ken patiently dropped us off at our respective accommodations, bidding us farewell. I am so grateful to Brother Ken and to this one-day tour. It felt like a wonderfully beautiful dream. I love the mountains and waters of Nantou, and perhaps if I ever feel anxious again, looking back at this trip, recalling those interesting little stories, those adorable little sheep, and those lovely ripples, will bring me peace. I truly hope to have the chance to visit again!

Facilities: We only visited Discovery World. For families with children: there are many facilities in the kids' area, some with an educational focus. For adults who just want to enjoy rides and aren't interested in characters: it's mainly because Tokyo Disneyland and Universal Studios Japan are too crowded and require long waits. The park is well-planned; you don't have to walk far between rides, and there are many small game stalls and seating areas along the way, plus plenty of restrooms! Convenience of booking with Klook: No need to go to the counter; just scan the Klook QR code at the gate for direct entry. Waiting time: We went on a Sunday in May, and it wasn't crowded at all. We didn't have to wait much; mostly just one or two turns before getting on a ride. Even for the Ferris wheel, we didn't have to wait, even near sunset.

This is a great place for edutainment, worth exploring again and again. The museum is divided into many different themed areas, and the exhibits in each theme hall are wonderfully and thoughtfully presented. However, some theme halls are not suitable for very young children, leading to constant crying and making it difficult to fully appreciate the exhibits, which is quite a shame. Some areas, such as the Life Sciences Hall, contain mummies and anthropomorphic sarcophagi, which can easily affect young children who are more sensitive. Parents are advised to think carefully and perhaps avoid this section, returning when their children are older and can better understand the exhibits. We suggest that the museum consider dividing visitors by age for different sections. It would also be beneficial to set up a play area, providing a temporary resting spot for children and parents. This is a museum worth revisiting and savoring.

The QR code entry was very convenient, but unfortunately the weather wasn't great that day. It was very foggy, so we couldn't see the beautiful scenery or the animals. There weren't even any birds. I usually see a lot of animals and insects when I hike other mountains.

ஆரம்பத்தில் கம்பி மேல் நடக்கும் சாகசம் மிகவும் பதட்டமாக இருந்தது. இடையில் சாகசக்காரர் கீழே விழுந்துவிட்டார், நல்லவேளையாக பிடித்துக்கொண்டார். கீழே மெத்தைகள் போடப்பட்டிருந்தாலும், நிதிப் பற்றாக்குறை காரணமாகவோ என்னவோ, 2/3 நீளத்திற்கு மட்டுமே மெத்தைகள் இருந்தன. ஒட்டுமொத்த நிகழ்ச்சி மிகவும் சுவாரஸ்யமாக இருந்தது. நிகழ்ச்சி முழுவதும் புகைப்படம் எடுக்கவோ, வீடியோ எடுக்கவோ அனுமதி இல்லை. நிகழ்ச்சி முடிந்ததும் சாகசக்காரர்கள் மற்றும் குதிரைகளுடன் புகைப்படம் எடுத்துக்கொள்ளலாம் (இலவசம்), விருப்பப்பட்டால் பணம் கொடுக்கலாம். கோமாளி நிகழ்ச்சியின் போது அவருடன் சேர்ந்து ஆரவாரம் செய்ய வேண்டியது சலிப்பாக இருந்ததைத் தவிர, ஒட்டுமொத்தமாக டிக்கெட் விலை ($380) மதிப்புள்ளது. இரட்டை டிக்கெட்டுகளை இங்கே வாங்குவது இன்னும் லாபகரமானது. வார நாட்களில் பார்வையாளர்கள் மிகக் குறைவாகவே இருந்தனர், எனவே $380-க்கு மேல் விலை கொடுத்து வாங்க வேண்டிய அவசியமில்லை, ஏனெனில் $380 இருக்கைகள் முன்புறத்திலேயே இருந்தன. சில நாற்காலிகள் உடைந்திருந்ததால் உட்கார வசதியாக இல்லை, பழுதுபார்க்க கூடுதல் நிதி இல்லை என்று தோன்றுகிறது. குழு உறுப்பினர்கள் மிகவும் உற்சாகமாக இருந்தனர், நாங்கள் புகைப்படம் எடுக்கச் சென்றபோது புன்னகையுடன் வரவேற்றனர். அவர்களுக்குக் கொடுத்த பணம் குறைவாக இருந்தாலும், அவர்களின் அர்ப்பணிப்பும் நட்பும் என்னை மிகவும் கவர்ந்தன.
