I have had several visits to mezamashikohi cafe and I find it very comfortable for working. It's a cafe with a good balance of elements that play an important role for a work cafe. The wifi is free and steady. There is a decent library as well where customers can pick books and read. The atmosphere is nice. It's a Japanese inspired cafe with a decent menu. Brunch sets are served on wooden plates with fresh grind soy milk and coffee. I have tried some of them and also ordered drinks separately. I liked their scones. Overall it served the purpose very comfortably. #chinatrip #workcafe #taichung

Caffaina is a chain of cafes in Taichung with a massive selection in desserts and bread items. I have visited other branches too but I find the one in Huilai to be the best in terms of quality and space. The café has one of the best patisseries in town and all of that at reasonable prices. All the croissants pastries are particularly delicious. Since they are quite popular, there will be ques and wait times. Overall, It’s a nice cafe with a good atmosphere. It’s not too busy or loud so you can study or work as well. But also nice enough for you to have a small gathering with friends or just hang out. #chinatrip #taichung #roctaiwan

I have done come true coffee a couple of times. Mostly during the brunch hour and with some work to take care of. This place suits both my needs perfectly. Although quite expensive for the simplest of dishes like the souffle pancakes or even some variations of drinks. But with less people around in the afternoons, it has been a good spot for me to get some work done. I have also tried their Nitro cold brew. Some very creative offerings in the menu. Overall my experience with food, drink and the atmosphere has been positive. I only with simpler dishes could be more cost effective. #chinatrip #taichung #roctaiwan #brunch

｜Taichung. Central District｜ Opened just last December, 'HAUSINC 1035' is located on Shifu Road. The café retains the two-story Western-style building that used to be a clinic, featuring high wooden beams inside. The name includes the phone number 1035 to distinguish it from other branches. The menu focuses on light meals and desserts. This time, we tried the savory pie, brunch, and pudding. We loved everything, especially the pudding served in vintage porcelain teacups, which perfectly matched the café's ambiance. The pudding was soft, creamy, and had a rich egg flavor, with caramel at the bottom adding a slight bitterness without being overly sweet—absolutely delightful! The breakfast plate with sourdough bread was also a favorite. The only downside was the menu listed 'Italian sausage,' which we expected to be like Salami or German sausage, but it tasted more like Chinese sausage. Despite visiting on a weekend, the place wasn't crowded, and the spacious environment made for a comfortable dining experience. Both indoor and outdoor seating are highly recommended. 🔰 Potato Stew Savory Pie with Seasonal Vegetables / $320 🔰 Italian Sausage and Mushroom Scrambled Eggs Brunch / $360 🔰 Caramel Pudding 🔰 Plain Latte / $160 🔰 Mixed Fruit Tea (Iced) / $150 ✅ HAUSINC 1035 📍 Address｜No. 73, Shifu Road, Central District, Taichung City 400 ⏰ Business Hours｜10:00–17:30

While wandering near the Model Market in Taichung, I stumbled upon 'BeanGood Café,' which started as a coffee cart and has now become a street-side shop. The café retains the traditional hand-painted signboard of the old hardware store, giving it a retro and charming vibe. The open space is perfect for relaxing, daydreaming, or chatting after a stroll along the Greenway. Besides their popular house-roasted beans, their cinnamon rolls are also a hit. This time, I tried the limited edition #MilletWineCoffee. It was slightly sweet but overall fresh-tasting. The alcohol content is low, so you can taste a hint of millet wine without getting drunk. The owner mentioned that their #Tiramisu is made with tofu, so I had to try it. The texture isn't as creamy as mascarpone cheese, but it makes the dessert feel light and refreshing. The taste is quite similar, and I highly recommend giving it a try. ✅ BeanGood Café 📍 Address: No. 6, Lane 46, Mofan Street, West District, Taichung City, 403 ⏰ Business Hours: 10:00 AM – 9:00 PM

#winhkflight #taichung #flowers Zhongshe Flower Market is one of the most underrated flower viewing establishments I’ve visited. It’s pretty out of the way and I can understand why people don’t really consider it. But the moment I stepped in the market, I could only smell fresh flowers. It was amazing and bewildering to be smelling that many flowers. Rose, lavender, lilies. It’s insane and intense. They also provide many props to take pictures with. And if you come on a good day, there would be a clearer picture of a nearby mountain in your photos. This is definitely a 9/10 experience for me and it’s really family friendly as well. I wish to go to Hong Kong in order to explore nature and find flowers as beautiful as the ones here at Zhongshe.

- I arrived at Taipei Main Station at 9am and 10am train tickets were sold out to Taichung so had to wait until 11am. My ticket cost 375 NTD one way. - I got there at 1:15pm. Then, I got a bus from Gancheng Station about 10 mins from Taichung Railway Station but it stopped there anyway. - Make sure you have coins for the bus it cost 190 NTD. The staff were so kind and felt the service wasn’t good enough and told me I only needed to pay 100NTD! I left at 1:45pm and arrived at 3:25pm. - There is a nice view from the Starbucks. Tenren Tea is also next to it but not sure if there is a view from there. - It was too late to get a bike as shops close at 6pm. Got a boat for 300NTD to visit three points and was told to be back for 6pm. - Arrived at 4:20pm at Xuanugguan Pier. Small walk uphill to see a temple. You just need about 30 minutes here. Left at around 5pm. - As I moved over to Ita Thao Pier, there was commentary provided but it was all in Chinese. There is a nice pagoda and temple along the route. - At Ita Thao, I got there at about 5:15pm so I really only had 45 minutes. There is a short trail along towards the rope way which closes at 3pm. Wear bug spray around your ankles because you will get bitten! - Overall the area is nice but I would recommend staying overnight to really enjoy it or else booking everything well in advance and getting up very early. - It was nice to see the rowing team on the water and water skiers as well. - I was on the 6pm boat back and arrived at Shuishe by 6:20pm. I got a pizza at Moon Restaurant and they charged my phone for me. - I left Sheuishe at 7:25pm on last bus and arrived at Taichung HSR Station at 9pm . I had to pay 700NTD for my train which left around 9:30pm and arrived at Taipei Station at 10:30pm. - Thanks for reading and I hope this is useful!

I just had to make a return trip to Maple Garden in Taichung, this time during the early spring season in late February. 🌱 Even though the flowers hadn't fully bloomed yet, the garden had its own unique charm. 🌿 The peaceful pathways guided me through a serene landscape with budding blossoms, creating a sense of anticipation for nature's grand awakening. Taking a leisure stroll takes around 45 minutes to an hour. It was a perfect pit stop to rest after running around the city. 📍: Maple Garden, No. 2, Wénquán Road, Xitun District, Taichung City, Taiwan. 🚌: Take Bus No. 45 from Taichung Railway Station to the Maple Garden stop #taichung #taiwan #peaceful #garden

Visited Carton King a couple years ago, and it was fun. We could see many beautiful creation made from cartons. They were really creative! There's a cardboard train that we can try to ride. This place is colorful and full of fun activities. It is also family and kids-friendly. You can buy various cute souvenirs here. To get here we can use Taichung city bus, and walk a bit from the nearest bus stop. There's entrance fee to get here, but don't worry. It's worth it! #wecreate #cartonking #taichung

There is art everywhere in Taichung city, Taiwan. One of it is absolutely the National Taichung Theater. It is simply a beauty. Designed by the legendary Toyo Ito, this place was straight out of a dream. The swooping curves and how it blended with the surroundings was like something from another planet. The lush greenery, serene ponds, and picture-perfect gardens all harmonizing with the stunning architecture. It was like nature giving the theater a big hug. Calling all art enthusiasts! This place is buzzing with art and cultural vibes. Artists and performers from all over come here to showcase their talent. The calendar is packed with mind-blowing performances, exhibitions, and cool workshops. There are year-long exquisite and artsy souvenirs for sale at the foyer.

For all you travel enthusiasts seeking a dose of architectural marvel and artistic magic, the National Taichung Theater is an absolute must-visit. Trust me, it's a mind-blowing experience where art and travel collide. #taiwan #taichung #operahouse #theater #art #architecture

If you search "What to Visit in Taichung", you probably will get this place as top 3 recommendation of attraction in Taichung. Rainbow village is an area with amazing wall painting that is full of story and history! I visited it in the Summer, and many people did too. I went there by Taichung city bus. Fortunately, some of bus/minibus in Taichung charged free for certain distance. My suggestion when you visit this place, please remember the Chinese name of it as well (彩虹眷村) since when I asked the local about its exact location, they didn't familiar with the "Rainbow Village" as its English name ✨ #wecreate #taichung #rainbowvillage

#wecreate #taichung Perfect sunset to watch with bae☺️ Gaomei Wetlands is over 300 hectares of grassy, mossy, muddy flat land on the west coast of Central Taiwan at the mouth of the Dajia River.

Experienced High Speed Railway - Taipei to Taichung, it take about 45 minutes only. We bought the buy 1 free 1 tickets during the tourism promotion, it was worth for money. Otherwise might to use TRA which take about 2 hours. Alight from HSR, you need to use TRA instead of MRT to reach Taichung city, which TRA New Wuri Station is connected to HSR Station, from here you can start to use the Easy Card, otherwise you can purchase token from the ticket counter.
