Wuling Farm has its own unique beauty in each season, such as cherry blossom viewing, ginkgo viewing, and autumn scenery - maple leaves and pine forests turning red. When the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, the whole farm is shrouded in a pink romantic atmosphere, and it is packed with people and cars. In addition to admiring the flowers, you can also take a walk along the Taoshan Trail and visit the majestic "Smoke Waterfall" where water smoke curls and surges. It is difficult to find a place to stay in spring when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom. We registered online in advance for a wooden pallet site in the camping area, which added some wild fun!

Wuqi Cultural Branch is located in Wuqi District, Taichung City. It is a Japanese-style building full of historical atmosphere.

The original wooden structure is preserved here, and the courtyard landscaping is matched, making it suitable for people who like Japanese style to visit and take photos. There was almost no one there when I first arrived, so I thought I could take some leisurely photos. However, a few minutes later, a busload of tour groups came in and the place was instantly packed with people. Tourists who want to take photos are advised to arrive on weekdays or early in the morning.

Moxy, a Marriott-owned hotel with a high cost-performance ratio, is a stylish, urban, and youthful hotel. The room itself is quite small. The space is not very spacious, but it has everything you need. The table and chairs are hung on the wall. You can open them when you need them, so you can make full use of the small space (it would be difficult to open a large suitcase). Although the room is not big, I like its design and color matching. It is also clean and meets the needs of accommodation when traveling. If I travel to Taichung again, I will choose to stay here again! #Valentine's Day 2025

When I visit Taichung, I especially enjoy staying near CMP Greenway, where I can easily stroll around and explore small shops. Heading south along the street, you'll find many charming creative shops, such as 'Green Light + marüte,' which hosts small exhibitions periodically, and 'WASHIDA HOME STORE,' which combines modern design with traditional craftsmanship. On the way to Audit Village, I always make sure to visit my favorite antique store, 'Reborn Antique.' Stepping into Reborn Antique feels like traveling through time, with each carefully selected item bearing historical traces and adding a unique warmth and charm to modern life. Entering Audit Village feels like stepping into a space where history and modernity, creativity and tradition resonate together. Originally a testament to administrative management, it has now transformed into a vibrant cultural and creative park, hosting art exhibitions, creative markets, and various cultural activities every weekend. It's really fun. Even just slowly walking along these streets, you can constantly discover delightful little corners. If you have the chance, definitely visit Taichung to slowly experience the city's diverse charm!

#1月好去地方2025 Every time I go to Taichung, I come and go in a hurry. I have heard of Audit New Village for a long time. Like Huashan and Songyan in Taipei, it is a reconstruction of old factories. I often feel that several cultural and creative venues in Taipei are isolated from the outside world. Huashan is close to Guanghua Shopping Center where you can buy parts and repair computers, and Songyan is next to high-rise buildings and bustling business districts. Although many people come and go, it seems to be completely different from this venue. It was my first time to visit Audit New Village. I felt that it was quite different from Huashan and Songyan. It was more like the concept of local revitalization. New start-up teams moved in to work, and there were beverage shops, coffee shops, cultural and creative products, bookstores, and souvenir shops. Several shops on the outskirts were also residential houses, and the buildings largely retained their original appearance. There are surprises every time I come to Taichung, and my favorable impression of Taichung increases.

| So beautiful you won't want to leave! ☆ Taichung accommodation | So beautiful you won't want to leave! The whole building is full of plants. As soon as you step in, you will be instantly attracted by the atrium. It's so beautiful~ I chose the *Comfort Double Room* and was surprised by the whole space as soon as I entered the room. The cool style with warm wood and the cute sofa is my favorite. I like it very much. It's very comfortable and I think the CP is super high. Although the bathroom is super big, it's a bit empty, but the water pressure and temperature are great. There are also free drinks available at the front desk 24 hours a day. I want to visit again.
