Taichung in a Day
HIGHLIGHTS
- • Experience Taichung in a day
- • Visit the ultra-modern National Taiwan Theater
- • Explore Taichung's Japanese Colonial past
- • Stroll through the city's fabulous gardens and art parks
If Taipei is Taiwan's NYC and Kaohsiung its’ LA, Taichung is the nation's Chicago, a town with whose unpretentious working class roots belie its rich history and artistic, quirky sensibility. Our Taichung in a Day Tour brings you through the culture and art, history and heart of Taiwan's Central City. Our first stop of the day will be a visit to the quirky, psychedelic Rainbow Village (possibly meeting its creator, the extremely charming Rainbow Grandpa). Afterward, we’ll visit the ultra-modern National Taichung Theater to explore one of Taiwan’s most recent and renowned architectural achievements. We’ll then go to the Art Garden and Park Lane, where guests will be able to choose from a number of excellent eateries for lunch. Following lunch (at guest’s expense), we’ll head on over to the Shen Ji New Village, a former industrial area that’s been turned into a vibrant artist's community featuring stores, cafes, street art and more. From there, we’ll explore Taichung’s Japanese colonial history and architecture with visits to the Shiyakusho and Miyahara buildings, two important structures from that era that have been re-purposed in ways we promise you’ll find equal parts charming and sweet.
