#境外遊

📍Address: No. 1, Pingshi Road, East District, Tainan City, Taiwan 🕰️Business Hours: 17:00 to 00:00 💰Average Spending: 150 TWD 💞Recommended Reason: A new type of Tainan night market 🏖️Environment/Facilities: Other entertainment facilities available Although Tainan has several large night markets, you can try visiting the newly opened Dayi Night Market next to Nanfang. It operates from Thursday to Sunday and is quite pleasant to stroll around. Unlike other night markets that are overcrowded, this one doesn't give you a cramped feeling. While it may not have very popular or must-try famous stores, the overall experience is comfortable. After visiting the night market, you can also go to the two nearby large shopping malls, which offer a wide range of high-end and low-end products and food.

📍Address: No. 91, Laiyuan Road, Wufeng District, Taichung City, Taiwan 🕰️Business Hours: 08:30 to 17:00 🏖️Environment/Facilities: The school's back garden 💰Average Cost: 30 TWD per person The facility is located within the Ming Tai campus, making it a unique location. In the last century, after a famous member of the Lin family passed the imperial examination, he renovated the garden on a large scale to show gratitude to his mother, Madam Luo, for raising him. He named it 'Laiyuan' after the story of Lao Lai Zi entertaining his parents with colorful clothes. The architecture is a harmonious blend of Chinese and Western styles, and the pond and surrounding landscaping are beautiful. It is one of the attractions of the Wufeng Lin Family Mansion and Garden. If you are driving, you can park your vehicle for free inside the campus. It is worth visiting, although the park is not very large and can be toured quickly. You can also plan to spend half a day visiting other related attractions.

If you didn’t go to Tang’an Rice Terraces, this trip to Zhaoxing would probably be very disappointing 😂😂 Tang’an Rice Terraces are beautiful under the golden light of sunset, and Tang’an Dong Village is very peaceful at night and in the morning. You don’t want to rush down the mountain after watching the sunset🌄 Maybe you can stay one night in the hall and experience it slowly like us. It will definitely be an experience you won’t regret👍 🌟Guizhou Zhaoxing 4 days and 3 nights itinerary🌟: Day 1: Arrive at Congjiang High-speed Railway Station – Zhaoxing Dong Village – B&B transfer to Tang’an Dong Village Day 2: Hiking from Tang’an Dong Village to Zhaoxing Dong Village Day 3: Huanggang Dong Village Day 4: Return to Zhaoxing Dong Village We booked a B&B with a view of Tang'an Rice Terraces on the first night. There were not many accommodation options and most of them were not soundproof. But the advantage was that we didn't have to rush down the mountain after watching the sunset. We could also spend the night and the next morning in a quiet and leisurely hotel. Take a stroll in Tang'an Dong Village. Next, let's talk about the specific itinerary in Tang'an for your reference: 🌟Day 1: ✅ Arrive at Tang’an Rice Terraces Viewing B&B around 4 p.m. ✅ Take a walk around Tang'an Dong Village. In addition to the terraces that everyone goes down, we saw a staircase going up the mountain behind the Drum Tower. We were curious and went up to have a look. The scenery is also good (p3-4, p9) ✅ I walked to the middle of the terraces at sunset. I originally wanted to try the newly opened Cowshed Coffee (p12), but there were too many people and the price was a bit high, so I didn’t try it. ✅ After watching the sunset, I went back to the B&B balcony to watch the sunset, which was great ✅ Have dinner at the restaurant on the first floor of the B&B, the farm food is delicious👍🏻 🌟Day 2: ✅ Go to Shanshuijian (p13) for coffee and tea ✅ Check out for lunch ✅ Hiking down to Zhaoxing Dong Village, passing through the Xiage Rice Terraces (p14-18), it takes about 3 hours to walk and take pictures. It is not difficult but you need to know the route in advance because there are no signage on some side roads. ✅ Arrive at Zhaoxing Dong Village To be honest, I feel that Zhaoxing Dong Village is really overly commercialized now. Half of the main streets are travel photography shops or some nondescript shops🥲🥲The village is full of people traveling to take photos in every corner , the car drove into the already crowded village, and it turned into a smoky night market street at night, with singing from several bars filling the streets. If I hadn’t experienced it slowly in Tang’an this time, I would have been extremely disappointed with this trip‼ ️But I have seen the golden terraces shrouded by the setting sun, seen the crimson sunset over the endless mountains, experienced the quiet beauty that only belongs to the morning before it is occupied by tourists, and walked through an idyllic scenery between the terraces and the Dong Village. Hiking 🏞️🏞️ If you will go to Zhaoxing Dong Village and read this article, you must take some time to experience the beauty of Tang'an. #global travel #parent-child travel #parent-child good place #surrounding travel #guizhou tourism #guizhou #overseas travel #sunset #terraces

#NovemberGood Places2024 How can you miss Chiikawa Land in Sendai PARCO when traveling to Tohoku? 🤩This is the only specialty store in the Tohoku region of Japan with the theme of the cute character Chiikawa. Compared with Tokyo and Osaka, there are relatively few tourists in the Tohoku region, so the experience here is particularly relaxing😚. I arrived on a weekday afternoon and was able to enter the world of Chiikawa directly without waiting or sorting out my papers in advance. All kinds of Chiikawa peripheral products are available, and many popular series of products are still in stock, especially the gashapon blind boxes here, which are plentiful🛍️. There is no sense of oppression or crowding when shopping here, allowing fans to slowly appreciate each item and choose at will. The decoration in the store is also very cute, exuding the charm of Chiikawa everywhere, making people want to take pictures📸. 🛍️Attraction: Chiikawa Land Sendai PARCO store 📍Address: 8th Floor, Sendai PARCO Main Building, 1-2-3 Chuo, Aoba-ku, Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture ⏰Business hours: 10:00 ~ 20:30 #Overseas travel #Japan travel #Japan Tohoku

#NovemberGood Places2024 This time when I went to Isetan in Niigata, Tohoku, Japan, I accidentally discovered a fried pork cutlet set meal restaurant on the 7th floor - Wako😋. We ordered several different types of set meals, and the most amazing one was the one-bite cheese fried pork chop🥓 recommended by the waiter. The pork chop in this dish has a golden and crispy skin, and the meat inside is tender and juicy. When you bite into it, the rich cheese instantly melts in your mouth, perfectly blending with the fresh aroma of the pork chop, making it endlessly memorable. In addition to the main character pork chop, the white rice here🍚 is also impressive. Niigata's white rice is very famous, and when paired with fried pork cutlets, you can feel the wonderful texture of the rice in every bite. What’s even more surprising is that you can add unlimited amounts of rice and miso soup. Just tell the clerk softly and you can enjoy this delicious food again😜. 🍽️Restaurant: Kazuyuki Isetan Niigata Store 📍Address: 7F Niigata Isetan, 1-6-1 Yachiyo, Chuo-ku, Niigata City #日本 Northeast #Japanese food #Japanese travel #overseas travel

The ancient city of Ephesos, which has stood for more than two thousand years, has Greek and Roman elements and has been listed as a World Cultural Heritage 👍 It is one of the best preserved and largest ancient Greek and Roman civilizations in the world❗️ The city was founded by the Ionians in the 11th century BC. It disappeared from history in the 15th century until it was excavated and reappeared in the second half of the 19th century. The most distinctive feature of the ancient city is its marble-paved streets, so be careful. Walk🤣🤣🤣 I even slipped on a marble😂😅🤣 A major feature here is the open-air opera house. The entrance and exit are passages on both sides and there are dressing rooms. The circulation design is almost the same as that of a modern theater. The theater can accommodate 25,000 spectators. At that time, the population of Ephesus was already 400,000 to 500,000. It was one of the largest cities at that time! ! This city has witnessed the prosperity of Greek and Roman culture. The most impressive thing is that the statue of the "Goddess of Victory" is the inspiration for the trademark design of a well-known sports brand. This was once the most fertile and prosperous city in Asia✨️ When you look at the first few photos, do you think they look like a mini version of the Roman Coliseum? #外游 #travel #travelholic #Turkey #Turquia #Eurasiajunction #100 Ways to Travel

📍Address: 100 Donghua North Road, Songshan District, Taipei 💰Average cost per person: $600 🏖️Environment/Facilities: Large outdoor crescent-shaped swimming pool 🕰️Business hours: 24 hours Just went on a family trip to Taipei and stayed at ILLUME Hotel next to the Taipei Arena. Although it is a four-star hotel, it has the grandeur of a five-star hotel. This hotel is very suitable for attending concerts at the Taipei Arena, as it is just a short walk away. There are also many dining options nearby in the evening. The hotel room is still very spacious even after placing two beds, and it is clean and tidy. It also has a gym and an outdoor swimming pool, giving it a high-end feel. Highly recommend adding the buffet breakfast, the restaurant has a very high ceiling and is very beautiful.

Early in the morning, take the limited express train from Shin-Osaka to Shirahama, which takes about 3 hours. The first thing to do upon arriving in Shirahama is to purchase a one-day bus pass at the Meiko Bus Shirahama Station Information Center next to Shirahama Station. This pass is cost-effective as you will be taking the Meiko Bus to various famous attractions in Shirahama throughout the day (a route map of the buses is included). The first stop is Tore Tore Market for lunch, where you can buy sashimi, seafood, and local products. There is a public area outside the market for dining. After eating, take the bus to various attractions. It is recommended to check the bus stop signs for the arrival times of each bus to plan your schedule. The itinerary for the day is as follows: Tore Tore Market --> Shirahama Underwater Observation Tower (only viewed from the outside, did not go up the tower) --> Senjojiki --> Sandanbeki --> Engetsu Island (to watch the sunset) --> Shirahama Ginza Street (most shops are closed by dusk). Unfortunately, the sunset that day did not align with the small hole in Engetsu Island, but it was still worth the visit. After completing the itinerary, take the Meiko Bus back to Shirahama Station and then the limited express train back to Shin-Osaka. Note that the last Meiko Bus and the last limited express train back to Shin-Osaka are quite early (the last limited express train that day was around 7 PM), so be sure to check the timetable in advance.

The bustling Zhongxiao Night Market in Taichung is a food lover's paradise 😋. We indulged in several popular snacks, including Angelica Duck Vermicelli, Wei Quan Rice Cake, Yongde Hall Job's Tears Milk, Crispy Soup, Sweet Potato Balls, and Squid Soup. Wei Quan Rice Cake is a long-standing favorite at Zhongxiao Night Market, always drawing a crowd. The lines for takeout are endless, and finding a seat to dine in is a challenge. The rice cake has a wonderfully chewy texture, cooked to perfection, and is full of flavor 👍. Yongde Hall Job's Tears Milk has a prominent sign, and the owner is known for his strict quality control. The stall is adorned with various 'warning signs,' which is part of its charm. The Job's Tears Milk is rich and smooth, with a delicate texture of Job's tears complemented by the creamy milk. Halfway through, you'll already feel quite full ☺️. Since there aren't many seats at Zhongxiao Night Market, we opted to take our feast back to the hotel to enjoy at our leisure 🥰.

Zermatt, located at the foot of the Swiss Alps 🇨🇭, is not only a popular spot for hiking but also the best place to admire the majestic Matterhorn 📸. We chose to take the mountain train 🚂 to the Gornergrat viewpoint. The train station is right in the center of Zermatt, simple yet full of Swiss charm. The train is equipped with large observation windows, allowing passengers to clearly capture the scenery along the way and get a full view of the Matterhorn 🏔️. The final stop of the train is the Gornergrat viewpoint, at an altitude of 3,130 meters. From the viewpoint, you can enjoy a 360-degree panoramic view of the spectacular Matterhorn and the shimmering glaciers. The contrast between the blue sky and the white snow mountains makes you feel like you're in a fairyland 🥰.

Humen Park offers free admission, yet it features various amusement rides such as roller coasters and drop towers.

This park is perfect for both adults and children. So, if you are visiting Dongguan, make sure to check out this park for some fun and relaxation. 😄

Sakata City in Yamagata Prefecture, Tohoku, Japan 🇯🇵, is home to an important historical landmark from the Edo period—the Sankyo Soko. During the Edo period, Sakata City relied on the westbound shipping routes of the Sea of Japan ⚓️, becoming a crucial rice port. The design and construction of the warehouses reflect the commercial wisdom of the time, utilizing the local natural environment to maintain stable temperatures inside the warehouses, ensuring the safe storage of rice. Surrounding the Sankyo Soko is an ancient beech forest 🌳, with trees over 150 years old providing a natural barrier against the strong winds from the Sea of Japan. Walking along the path, 36 beech trees line both sides, each showcasing its own beauty 😍. Near the Sankyo Soko, the 'Sakata Yume no Kura' offers many unique souvenirs 🛍️ from Yamagata, each item brimming with local charm. 📸 Attraction: Sankyo Soko 📍 Address: 1-1-20 Sankyo-cho, Sakata City, Yamagata Prefecture 🚝 Access: From Sakata Station, take the Shonai Kotsu Bus to the Sankyo Soko-mae Bus Stop, about a 10-minute ride, then a short walk to Sankyo Soko.

After leaving the museum, we headed to the nearby Tottori Sand Dunes, which is the largest sand dune terrain in Japan🌵. As soon as you stand on the sand dunes, you will be shocked by the endless desert landscape. The shape and texture of the dunes take on different colors as the sun hits them. When you climb up to the horseback sand dune🏜️, you can overlook the surrounding beautiful scenery. The endless Sea of ​​Japan is in front of you, which is very magnificent. 3. Uradome Coast 🌊 Uradome Coast is the easternmost stretch of coastline in Tottori. The unique natural seawalls, caves and jagged rocks here are formed by sea erosion. Moreover, because the water is extremely clear and the transparency is as deep as 25 meters, it is rated as the highest-grade beach in Japan. View☺️.

Where can you find a colorful castle? The castles in children's hearts are always beautiful! As parents, bringing our kids here is an achievement for us too! Sintra is located about a half-hour drive west of Lisbon. It's not hard to get to the city, but reaching Peña Palace is a challenge, especially during the peak holiday season in summer. First, you can drive to Sintra's train station and park your car. From there, you can take a bus or a tuk-tuk to the castle. Once you arrive, you'll need an entrance ticket to get in. Remember to buy a bus ticket when you purchase your entrance ticket! After that, you'll need to queue up at your designated time slot to enter. I think this castle is one of the most challenging attractions we've visited, but it's absolutely worth it!

Have you ever thought about how a winery visit could be a family trip? Initially, we didn't think so either.

They can pick grapes! This process is especially fun! Picking grapes is very enjoyable, and although the sun is strong, the rows of grapes are truly beautiful!

The palace is characterized by its typical Korean architectural style, featuring exquisite archways, colorfully painted grand palace roofs, and a neat and orderly layout, all of which reveal the essence of traditional Korean culture. Strolling through the palace's corridors and courtyards, one feels as though they have been transported back to the prosperous era of the Joseon Dynasty. Many visitors also rent various traditional and modern Korean hanboks and take photos against the backdrop of the stone walls of Bukchon Hanok Village, experiencing the rich traditional Korean atmosphere in another way.
