has always had a special affection for Taiwan. I forgot where it started. Maybe it was every lyric memorized in the concert where Mayday raised his hand; maybe in "Blue Gate", the youth dream of the High School Affiliated to Normal University. Later, I heard from Mayday that Lin Youjia, Tian Fuzhen, Chen Qizhen, Soda Green, and more and more independent bands, went to the Taipei Arena to watch a concert. It was once one of the must to do goals in life.
【Pre-departure preparation】
One and two permits and one sign:
1, the permit for mainland residents to travel to and from Taiwan, referred to as the Datong permit, issued by the entry and exit department of the mainland, the cost is 50 days, and there are national staff who have been filed with the public security organ (whether it is Civil servants are still public institutions, and banks are said to be more troublesome.) You still need the unit’s approval to leave the country before you can apply;
2, G endorsements, and free travel endorsements, and now accounts in cities that are open to free travel can be processed, and you can apply for it at the same time as the Chase. The additional visa fee is 20RMB, and some cities such as Shanghai and Xiamen can also apply for it on their own;
3, entry permit, which is the proof that Taiwan agrees to enter the country. After applying for the grand pass and G visa, the last step is to apply for the entry permit. Taobao has agents, usually between 150-200 yuan, and occasional discounts. In addition to the ID card, household registration and other materials, the income certificate and the emergency contact certificate are the most important. The stamped copy is on the left of
, purchased from the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, and the Meihua seal on the admission card is a bit beautiful.
If you are a student, you don’t need a proof of income and you only need to provide proof of school. The proof of income is proof of deposit of 50,000 (need to be frozen for more than three months), credit card gold card proof (the card surface is marked with gold, preferably Yes Visa card) or the certificate of annual income of 120,000 issued by the unit, which is the most convenient in comparison with the credit card certificate. Simply put, use the Grand Pass and G to sign out of the mainland, and use the entry permit to enter Taiwan.
2. Tips for air tickets:
Tip1: Where to book, because it’s the National Day holiday departure, the tax included between Wenzhou and Taipei is nearly 2600. The price is about 1800 on weekdays. With so many airports in the mainland, Wenzhou is probably the closest to Taiwan, direct About 1 hour and 15 minutes. In addition, the people of Fujian can also choose the small three links to take the boat to Kinmen first, and then the small plane from Kinmen to Taiwan. The ticket is cheap and it is said that it is valid for one year.
Tip2: There are currently 4 flights from Wenzhou to Taipei: Air China CA835, 15:05-16:25 every day, to Taoyuan; Air China CA5545, 11:45-13:10 every Thursday, to Taoyuan; Huaxin Aviation AE272, every Tuesday and Saturday 19:30-20:55, to Taoyuan; Mandarin Airlines AE958, every Monday, Thursday, Sunday, 19:05-20:10, to Songshan Airport.
Taipei Station, the level of cleanliness, citizens can sit on the floor
Tip3: Songshan Airport is close to the city, and I almost got off the plane to check in nearby hotels You can get out happy when Taoyuan Airport is one hour away from the city by bus. When you get out of the airport, you can choose to take Guoguang Bus 1819 to Taipei Railway Station, NT$145. And Taipei Main Station It is a transportation hub for Taipei High Speed Rail, Taiwan Railway, Passenger Transport, and MRT, and the transportation is very convenient.
3. Tips for mobile card, currency exchange, etc.
If the flight you choose to take can arrive in Taiwan before 8pm, you can withdraw money and apply for a mobile phone card at the airport one-stop (because the airport mobile phone operator counters are mostly closed at 21:00, some Douyou added Before National Day When I went to Taiwan, I got a mobile phone card at Taoyuan Airport after ten o'clock in the evening, and there are many people doing it. You can refer to it because Taiwan’s service industry is very developed, and it is possible to delay closing for passengers.
1. Withdraw money: You can apply for a Huaxia card, and the first cash withdrawal every day (refers to the 24 hours interval between the first withdrawal and the second) is free of handling fees, and the exchange rate is relatively cost-effective. Generally, a 7-day journey of 20000NT is enough. You can swipe your card for shopping in most malls, and you can get a tax refund for more than 3000NT.
2, Mobile phone card: There are three major operators: Taiwan Big Brother, Chunghwa Telecom, and Far East Telecom. If you are not particularly urgent to surf the Internet, you can also enable mobile roaming in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan on the mainland, and the tariff is not too expensive. Line hotThere are still a lot of points, 7-11 can surf the Internet for free for 30 minutes; if you are heavily dependent on mobile phones and often need to refresh WeChat Moments or Weibo, you can apply for the corresponding package according to the length of the journey. There are unlimited packages for 3 days, 5 days, and 7 days, with prices ranging from 350-500NT.
3. Travel Card: Available at convenience stores (don’t doubt that the most densely distributed convenience store in the world is in Wanwan), you can take the bus, MRT, and you can also swipe the high-speed rail ticket, 300NT starting charge, 1000NT will not be charged I think it’s too much, because the convenience store has so many things~
4. Youth card: It is available at Taipei Main Station, but Taiwan’s cultural department does not know that it is open to young people under the age of 30 by the Tourism Bureau. Free application, some youth hostels, Tourist attractions, especially the National Palace Museum in Taipei, can enjoy a half price discount.
5, APP recommendation:
①google map Yes, only the mainland has blocked Google Maps, you can use the street view function, which is very convenient to find;
②Taiwan Railway ticket booking machine inquires the train schedule and ticket booking in one step, strangely, If you leave Taiwan, you won’t be able to use it.
③Taiwan High Speed Rail The newly launched mobile app by the Taiwan Railway Department. I haven’t used it. It should be about the same as 12306. There are still many great homestays for rent on the B&B Ordering Network. Our stay in Jiufen Taipei this time is booked here. Warm reminder: Taiwan’s hotel check-in time is 3 pm, and check-out time is 12:00 noon , The time difference of 3 hours in the middle is suitable for hurrying and hanging out. Please pay attention when arranging the itinerary.
[About itinerary]
DAY1: Wenzhou-Taipei Taoyuan Airport AE272 19:25-20:45
Eat: Ningxia Night Market ★★★
Tip: (closer to Taipei Station, about 15 minutes walk), the taste feels flat, but at least not There is no food safety problem when using waste oil like the mainland. Moreover, even the night market in Taiwan is in very good hygiene, which is worthy of reflection. It is open until around 1 am.
Live: Master Business Hotel ★★★ 3000NT
Tip: Booking reservation, nothing else, because the next day we have the morning high-speed train, we chose the one close to the station. However, the accommodation in Taipei is the highest in Taiwan. .
DAY2: Taipei-Kenting
Line: Taipei-Kaohsiung High Speed Rail 6:36-8:12, 20% off early bird ticket 1300NT*2
Kaohsiung-Sizhongxi taxi carpool 400NT*2
from Sizhongxi-Kenting taxi to car 150NT, transfer bus to Kenting
Kenting electric car 700NT one day
Play: Kenting Street-Chuanfan Rock-Eluanbi Park (40NT)-the southernmost tip of Taiwan-Longpan Grassland (★★★★★) round trip
The Longpan Grassland is super beautiful and windy, and the mobile phone can be blown out of the hand accidentally.
Warm reminder, you must wear safety pants XD when visiting Kenting.
Eat: Houbihu Seafood Market (there is no fresh food stalls in Wenzhou, but you still have to wait for a large group of people. It is said that Huige's sashimi portion is sufficient and the price is reasonable. This time I didn't eat it. It's closed, so you have to eat dinner early)
Stay: Sizhongxi Mingquan Hot Spring Hotel, Mine-Chuan Hot Spring Hotel ★★★★ 3680NT
Tip:
1, this stay in Kenting and Tainan is shared by a sister from Douban , The post recommends detailed recommendations for accommodation in South Taiwan. It is very reliable. The host has been to Taiwan 15 times, and also lists the points that Taiwan is worth visiting and will not go again. If you are interested, you can poke it.
2, How to get there: I can’t find this one on mainstream booking websites like booking and agoda. You have to go to the website by yourself, the website is still old Bad: http://www.since100hotspring.com.tw/ The location is near Kenting. From Kaohsiung, you can take the Kenting Express Line, get off at Checheng, and take another taxi, which will cost you 150 Taiwan dollars. We came by carpooling with people, 400 NT$ per person. If you start from Kenting, you should be at Around 700 Taiwan dollars.
We live in a Japanese-style room, this room type is super tight, and we should book as early as possible.
high Rail booking guide: booking website http://www.thsrc.com.tw , It is on sale 28 days in advance, and you can grab an early bird ticket of 35%, 20% or 10%. After traveling in Taiwan, I found that other prices are no different from the mainland, and some are even cheaper than the mainland. Only high-speed rail tickets. Much more expensive than the mainland Many, even 20% off early bird. Credit card payment, you can pick up the ticket by yourself with the certificate and order number at the time of booking.
DAY3: Kaohsiung-Tainan Taiwan Railway 142 106NT*2
Line: This day was going from Kenting to Tainan, the process was quite bumpy, the taxi transferred to the bus and then to the Taiwan Railway, arriving in Tainan is already more than 4 pm. Anyway, the check-in time of all hotels in Taiwan is after 3 pm, so really don’t schedule a day’s schedule too full or be confident that you have good physical strength. Anyway, it took at least half a month to recover after we both came back. .
play: Shennong Street (★★★), Hai’an Road Art Street
Tip: Shennong Street at night is more beautiful than during the day, and because of its old age, it has a weird taste when it is illuminated with a yellow light. When the tourists fade away, you can really sit in the middle of the alley and take pictures. But I was also surprised at Tainan's cultural and creative industries and old houses The power of the city, the layout along Shennong Street is either a cafe or an independent designer brand, or something that makes you willing to spend money. And just outside Shennong Street is the Hai’an Road Art Festival. You can watch various installation art during the day and at night. It turned into a variety of open-air bar stalls, it was so lively, and across the alley was the largest Narcissus Palace market in Tainan, with a breath of life.
Eat: 1. Huzai Snack Department·Clean Porridge and Side Dishes ★★★★★
Tip: There are delicious food everywhere in Tainan, and the overall speed is half a beat slower than other big cities. Everyone eats and wanders around. I like it very much and want to go again. The level of snacks is indeed the highest in the Taiwanese cities I have been to Yes, it's delicious and cheap. It's the kind of "anything you want to eat in and it's super delicious", while the level of Taipei is "just finding a restaurant to eat in will not disappoint you." We met this porridge side dish by chance, I especially liked the bonito flakes, which were sprinkled on small octopus balls, and we never found them again. Originally, we wanted to pack some and bring them back, but after thinking of the abnormal search system of the customs, we gave up.
2, Garden Night Market★★★★
Tip: Huayuan Night Market should be the biggest night market I have ever seen in Taiwan. It not only has a variety of food (most of Taiwan’s food also originates from Tainan), but also various daily necessities and clothing. The most amazing thing is that the selfie stick is popular recently, so it is in the night market. After walking a few steps, I saw that the stall owner was also drunk while demonstrating the use of the selfie stick. The Garden Night Market is worthy of being a Taiwanese kitchen. Needless to say, the food is delicious and the price is quite affordable. I wish I had several stomachs.
Live: Youfang Apartment ★★★★ 2680NT
Tip: 1. The breakfast is quite standard, the decoration is vintage style, and the small bath items are L’Occitane or something. Because it was an old house renovation, there was no elevator, so I had to carry the boxes upstairs again, which was very hard.
2. How to get there: No. 9, Lane 269, Section 2, Haian Road, West Central District, Tainan City
http://www.trip235.com/ The website is not stable, and there is no online banking payment interface. Paypal is required. Later, we asked our friends in Taiwan to help transfer the reservation, pay half of the room price, and pay the balance after check-in. Pay a certain percentage of liquidated damages. Tainan is not very big. Basic hotels can be reached within 2 kilometers of the scenic spots.
Youfang Apartment
In the corner of the room we live in, we love the green sofa. The more successful homestays that have been renovated include Xie’s House, Zhengxing Cafe, Jiajia Market, Maowu and Youxingwei, friends who love architectural aestheticsShould have a cold.
DAY4 Tainan Zhuyoufang Apartment 2680NT
Play: 1. Anping Castle★★★★
Tip: It has a similar historical background to Longwan Yongchang Fort. Because he is a cultural worker, he will pay special attention to the integration of cultural heritage and tourism industry, Tainan Although it is old, we are always our teacher in this respect, and I feel heavy on this day.
The city wall of Anping Old Fort is made of mashed oyster shell ash with sugar water and glutinous rice juice and stacked bricks, wonderful
2, Anping Tree House ★★★★
Tip: The tree house was originally an ordinary warehouse, and the old banyan tree has been entrenched in this ancient castle for a hundred years, and finally created the amazing scene of "there is a wall in the tree, and there is a tree in the wall", the sun shines through the branches and leaves to cast a mottled light and shadow in the house , Shuttle in the meantime It feels very unusual. Tickets are 50NT, free with a press card. There is a school outside the tree house. It is the site of the former British consulate. It is a school without walls in the true sense. The whole landscape blends naturally.
The mottled light and shadow in the Anping Tree House
3, Deji Foreign Trade ★★★
Tip: Now it is the Taiwan History Museum. Here you can see the history of Taiwan from the beginning of the aboriginal residence to the present. After reading it, I feel that the people of Taiwan The sense of self-identity is indeed quite subtle. It is connected with the tree house and visits two attractions with one ticket.
4, Yanping Old Street★★
Tip: Like the general scenic spots, all kinds of souvenirs are sold at high prices, which is quite tasteless.
Literary and artistic Jasmine Lane, located in Yanping Old Street
5, National Theater ★★★
Tip: The old movie theater in Tainan with few digits still retains the style of the old theater-there are no computer-output tickets and flannel seats, but paper theater tickets with manual stamps, and the audience sits on simple metal chairs. Hanging above the entrance is Nostalgic, 3 meters square hand-painted movie posters, come here to experience the fun of watching movies in the 60s. What's more, it is said that Ang Lee often came to watch movies when he was a child and then achieved his movie dream blabla.
6, National Museum of Taiwan Literature ★★★★★
Tip: A museum that makes people immersed in and pays attention to the content of the exhibition itself. The interaction is excellent, and it is also suitable for parent-child travel. Five-star sincere recommendation.
7, Narrow Door Cafe★★★★
Tip: "You have to enter the narrow door" is a sentence from the "Bible". The narrowest part of the alley at the entrance of the narrow door cafe is only 38cm, which is also a big test for fat people. If you are not careful, you can only pass by sideways. Up. this is A coffee shop opened in a century-old house is also a successful example of the rebirth of the old house. Tainan has done particularly well. The day we went there happened to be a few high school students doing market research, and we heard that they were Ban Niang's dialogue, in short, is wonderful.
was once a landmark building in Tainan, Lin Department Store
8, Lin Department Store ★★★★
Tip: Lin Department Store was once the tallest building in Tainan. This traditional store has withstood the test of time, and recently reopened with a new attitude and transformed into a cultural and creative department store. Each floor has different planning themes. Tainan's characteristic canvas products, sword lions, pastries, etc. have been stationed in succession. The combination of tradition and modernity is very unique. There are restrictions on the flow of people and up to 470 people. I personally like this style.
Eat: 1. Tongji Anping Beancurd (★★★★)-just delicious, so smooth that you can't stop
2, Anping Chengjiao omelet rolls (★★★★)-shrimp rolls are delicious
3, Du Xiaoyue Danzi Noodles (★★★★)-Emma is not as amazing as the first time I ate it, but the taste is still good
4, Lily Fruit Shop (★★★★)-A fruit shop that has been open for 67 years, there is a certain Reasonable
has opened the Lily fruit shop for 67 years
DAY5: Tainan-Jiufen
Play: Jiufen Old Street ★★★
Tip: Famous for the movie "City of Tragedy", Haru Miyazaki's "Spirited Away" streets were inspired by Jiufen, which attracted a large number of Japanese tourists (now Japanese and Korean tourists almost occupy Jiufen). Before I came, I was also because of Teacher Chen’s "Nine "Coffee Shop" and I am full of expectations here, but now in addition to human beings, the other thing is to regard "Ki Shan Street" as "Gee Street" and tell me I am not alone!
Live: Jinguashi·Yuehe B&B·Creative Coffee House ★★★
215RMB Tip: Book on airbnb, because Jiufen’s fancy B&B is full, so I will stay in Jinguashi which is 15 minutes away from Jiufen. After experiencing a series of thrilling events that cannot be repeated, I can only say that Zhenxin Cafe is the most unexpected encounter of our trip!
DAY6: Jiufen-Taipei Passenger Transport 1062 bus
play: 1, Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall ★ ★ ★
Tip: Needless to say, the ceremony for the handover ceremony of the soldiers on the whole point, there is also an exhibition of Sun Yat-sen's life on the 1-3 floors, and the square in front of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is also A place where Taipei citizens take a walk and relax, and you can even see street dance groups rehearsing.
2, Xinyi Shopping District★★★★
Tip: 1, The layout of Taipei 101 and Shinkong Mitsukoshi in turn will also pass by the Taipei City Government. What attracts us is not the convenience of shopping here, but the intoxicating place names. The Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is on Ren’ai Road and Building 101 is on Xinyi Road, and we I live in a homestay near the MRT Zhongxiao Fuxing Station. People who know a little about history know that the four-dimensional and eight virtues, namely "propriety, justice, integrity and shame" and "loyalty, piety, benevolence, love, faith and peace" are the national morals advocated by the New Life Movement in the early years of the Republic of China. Taipei People put Sun Yat-sen’s horoscopes on the name of the road, and the east-west main lines are nationality, civil rights, people’s livelihood, loyalty, benevolence, faith, and peace.
2, Lao Jiang always thought of recovery after he came to Taiwan, he could only draw the ground as a prison, and put the place names of various cities in China on the map of Taipei according to the geographic direction, so Wenzhou Street must be close to Yongkang Street, Qingtian Street, and Taishun Street. It must be in the southern district of Taipei, and it has become one of the most humanistic neighborhoods in Taipei because of the existence of the two universities in Taiwan.
3, Eslite Dunnan Store★★★★
Tip: It is not closed 24 hours. When we go, it is 2:00 in the morning. It is still brightly lit and crowded. Among them, there are many handsome guys with temperament, which are really seductive.
4, Lin Dongfang Beef Noodles ★★★★★
Tip: You must go to Taiwan to report. The difference from other beef noodles is that it is open until 4 am, and other beef noodle shops close at 9 pm, so Lin Dongfang It has become the best choice for supper; the second is that the soup has been boiled 24 hours a day since the store opened for 30 years. The
and the shop’s homemade shacha sauce make it a perfect match. 5 Large chunks of thick beef tendon, simmered to be soft and loose, with thick noodles, one beef tendon, one noodle, really enjoyable.
Live: a homestay near the Zhongxiao Fuxing Station of the MRT★★★
Tip: It is also booked on airbnb. Taipei accommodation is considered the most expensive, and because of its superior location, the price is naturally high. What’s cooler is that you can see 101 on the top of the building, with a wide view and a very Local community, just live like a Taiper. Even the back streets and alleys downstairs of the homestay are very good for shopping, and you can gain something if you walk around, such as tsumori Brands like chisato, and various small shops; or walking into a snack bar, coffee shop, or even a street stall, are all of a very high standard.
DAY7 Taipei
Play:
1, National Palace Museum ★★★★★
2, Kangqinglong block ★★★★★
Tip: Retains the aura of the city, is especially suitable for walking, and is also a place for writer Shu Guozhi. Here is the best choice to experience the beauty of Taipei’s alleys. There are no tall buildings or divisions of major roads. Starting from Yongkang Park, people can walk freely among the narrow streets and alleys. In the well-preserved old houses, shops with their own characteristics are quietly operating their own world.
Eat:
1, Yonghe Soy Milk King★★★★
Tip: Finally, only in Taiwan do you know the authentic soy milk fritters, and I am drunk.
2, Sanxitang ★★★
Tip: Originally the library of Emperor Qianlong (?), it is now the "canteen" of the National Palace Museum in Taipei. You must eat beef noodles. There are more seats and the environment is comfortable.
3, Dalai Xiaoguan Braised Pork Rice ★★★
Tip: Taiwanese dishes, small quantity, compared to the night market, haha.
play: Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall ★★★ (just to see Freedom Square)
Summary 1, 2 days in Taipei is not enough, 3 days seem to be a little more reasonable, like this time we abandoned Ximending for Wenzhou Street and Qingtian Street , Longshan Temple, Presidential Palace and other attractions. The more literary Fujin Street, the former residence of Lin Yutang, the former residence of Qian Mu, and the former residence of Hu Shi, etc., are also more than capable. Next time, I must go to Yangmingshan! ! ! 2. If you have enough time, you can also go to Beitou to soak in a hot spring, which is one of the four largest hot springs in Taiwan. If the fresh water does not have a particularly strong Jay Chou complex, you can also omit it, because the sunset is beautiful everywhere in Taiwan. 3. It takes at least 15 days to circle the island, and there are only 7-8 days of vacation, either on the west route (Taipei, Taichung, Tainan, Kaohsiung) or the east route (Taipei, Hualien, Taitung). The traffic on the west route is relatively developed, and it is more cultural and east-west. There are only Taiwan Railways or chartered cars, which is natural, and the Pacific Ocean is on the other side. Only 5 days, let's play in the Greater Taipei area. 4. Purchasing needs to be cautious, especially those who bring books. The mainland Chinese people who buy in Taiwan are definitely banned. It will be troublesome if they are seized by customs. There are also CDs, medicines, cosmetics, electronic products, etc., after all, they are for fun. Something not You can see it as soon as you leave the MRT station. It takes time to find it. However, the time on the island is limited. This is a shameful act of taking up valuable time for people to play. I hope those who ask friends to bring things every time they speak. Casual classmates learn a lesson. Of course, students who have shopping options in the itinerary can ignore this, but I personally think that why do you travel with most of the things that can be purchased online? I am tired of your shoulders. 5. The best souvenirs in Taiwan are facial mask, pineapple cake and nougat. Recommended for pineapple cakes, hot hills, sunrise, Jiade Bakery, Vigor Bakery, and Nougat recommend Sugar Village, above. About cost Airfare plus accommodation plus shopping costs about 11000RMB, of which round-trip airfare is 2600RMB. Accommodation has been reflected in the guide, and it is all in Taiwan dollars without special mention. When entering Taiwan, we will mention it alone. It is 10,000 NT, which is equivalent to about 2,000 RMB. It is mainly used for transportation and meals on the island. All shopping is credit card, and the per capita shopping consumption is about 3,000 RMB. Among them, accommodation is the big one, because our requirements for accommodation are quite high. If you are not a friend who particularly cares about, staying in a hostel or homestay throughout the whole journey will not cost you so much. For a 7-day tour around the island, the cost is controlled at 7000-8000RMB, which is normal.
