The 10 Best Things to do Good for Big Groups in Taichung, Taiwan
Among its many tourist attractions, Taichung offers a downtown shopping experience similar to that of Tokyo or Manhattan, a bustling nightlife, and a cuisine to please even the pickiest palate. Travelers come to this city to feast their eyes on the temples, markets, parks, and museums. Touring families often visit the Taichung National Museum of Natural Science to marvel over the exhibits or the Feng Chia night market to purchase local goods. But perhaps what Taichung is known for the most is Bubble tea, the most famous beverage in the region.

A very interesting and well designed museum with a variety of exhibits ranging from the sciences & space to natural history to local and international culture... Could easily spend a whole day here and only touch the surface. Our 2yr old loved the dinasaur exhibit as well as the many interactive displays. Will defenitly return again [maybe without the little one ;-) ]

5. 921 Earthquake Museum of Taiwan
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 292 reviews
At 01:47AM on September 21, 1999, the central part of Taiwan was struck by an earthquake that registered 7.3 on the Richter Scale. The resultant loss of life and damage to property put it among the worst natural disasters of the past century in Taiwan. In the wake of the 921 disaster, the local government decided to preserve some of the phenomena related to the earthquake such as slips in the fault line, collapsed school structures, raised river beds and other selected locations, to serve as reminders for the public of the need to prepare for such disasters and to be ready to provide emergency rescue services. With the rebuilding of Kwangfu Junior High on its present site, the Earthquake Memorial Museum was renamed the 921 Earthquake Museum of Taiwan on February 13, 2001. The new plan retains the original sites as a record of the damage wrought by the earthquake, and it also adds educational facilities designed to inform the public and school children about earthquakes and disaster readiness.

This is well worth your time. We took a cab drive here and back. The museum is built around the ruins of a junior high school, where luckily no one was killed due to the quake happening in the middle of the night. The displays and signs are very interesting, with areas educating visitors on earthquakes, tsunamis, being prepared and what went wrong. There is an area that is free, which includes the snack bar/cafe, so if you want to eat there keep your ticket handy to get back into the paid area. We enjoyed the museum and the snack bar and wished we had more time to explore.

This is THE place to go to view beautiful sunset against a backdrop of windmills. The place is windy (obviously!) and packed with people all waiting to catch a glimpse of the beautiful sunset. There is a boardwalk over the wetlands (where tiny crabs can be seen scrambling..) and although there are loads of people, you can still see the sun slowly disappearing over the horizon ! Go early to grab a seat on the boardwalk, dangle your legs over the boardwalk, enjoy the wind and just wait ... it's worth a visit if you are in the vicinity.
7. Dasyushan National Forest Recreation Area
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 57 reviews
Dasyueshan National Forest Recreation Area nurtures a wide variety of wildlife and plants. It is internationally famous for bird watching in the middle altitude region. The red maples in autumn and winter, the starry sky on summer nights, the sea of clouds in the evening, the muntjac (Muntiacus reevesi) and Mikado Pheasant (Syrmaticus mikado) wandering through the forests and along the trails, and thousand-year-old giant Taiwan red cypress are the most appealing scenes in the Dasyueshan National Forest Recreation Area.

My wife and I spent several days in the Dasyushan Forest during our recent birdwatching tour of Taiwan ????????. This was the only area where we managed to see the endemic Mikado Pheasant along with many other Taiwan endemic species. There are plenty of recreation areas to park and and there is a visitor centre at the end of the main road into the park, there are plenty of clean toilet facilities within the park. A must for any visiting birder.

As soon as I stepped in this temple, I feel that this place is magical, as this temple is really crowded with visitors & followers.. and the other God/Goddess visiting from other temple to here is nonstop... and this is very interesting because as God/Goddess visiting here, they will bring on a parade of their own, it consist of possible dozen of person to parade their entrance and exit into this temple... They welcome all visitor to even go in and make prayers... no restriction... but as all temple .. please show respect and wear appropriate... This temple definite has it own charm "magic"... it doesn't matter what religion you into, just pay this temple a visit, and you will see the charm I am talking about
