The most beautiful garden in Taiwan that you must visit once in your lifetime is in Miaoli Nanzhuang! Covering an area of ​​approximately 48,000 square meters, Suvla Manor is a secret place embraced by forests. Upon entering the park, you can reach the viewing platform in the park, where you can have a bird's eye view of the entire Miaoli Nanzhuang Street and the Zhonggang Stream. The trees and flowers in the manor are luxuriant, and every May the tung trees bloom, it’s like a rain of tung flowers, so beautiful! In June, you can see hibiscus flowers in full bloom and butterflies flying gracefully. When the weather is good, you can also see the mountains of Garry Mountain, Egong Qishan and Leshan. The hazy beauty after the rain allows you to feel the wonder of nature no matter when you come. The manor not only provides dining and food, diverse accommodation spaces, but also 3D murals, extra-long slides and other facilities, allowing you to get closer to nature in a five-star environment and add phytoncide to your busy life. Healing.

Zhuoye Cottage is a beautiful place with Hakka cultural characteristics. The indigo dyeing works on display are exquisite, and you can also try making your own. The food is all-you-can-eat, fresh, delicious, and unique. However, the place is a bit small and the prices are a bit high.

The Old Mountain Line Rail Bike is the first railway bicycle train in Taiwan. Riding on the train can enjoy the most beautiful Old Mountain Line C route, the natural scenery surrounding the mountains and forests, and the charming tunnel of the hidden girl. You can leisurely shuttle through it. The old mountain line railway, with your feet stepping on it and your eyes walking along it, gives you a sense of traveling through another world.

All indoor facilities and underground parking are suitable for a whole day of fun here. It closes at 6 o'clock, and facilities will gradually close at 5:30. You can purchase tickets online one day in advance and redeem them at the door on the first floor. The large climbing frame area on the sixth floor can be entered repeatedly. The magic school on the third floor takes about half an hour. There are some small stalls on the sixth floor where you can buy snacks, or there are many restaurants in the building next door.

West Lake Resort is located in Yuchi Township, Nantou County, nestled between lakes and mountains. It is a great resort for relaxing and enjoying the beauty of nature. This trip allowed me to experience the elegance and tranquility of West Lake Resort. Whether it was the accommodation facilities, catering or scenery, it was all impressive. The resort has a very beautiful environment, surrounded by lush green mountains and lakes, and the scenery is picturesque. From every corner of the resort, you can enjoy the magnificent lake view and green mountains, as if you are in a natural painting. My favorite part is the promenade along the lake. Walking along the lake, you can not only enjoy the fresh air, but also listen to the birdsong and the sound of water, which makes people feel extremely relaxed. The accommodation facilities at West Lake Resort are also very comfortable. The decoration in the room is simple and elegant, and it is well equipped, making people feel very comfortable.
