I first met Taiwan when I was in elementary school. The textbook said that it was "beautiful and rich" , and it was "Treasure Island of the Motherland" .
Later, I learned more about its past and present life.
Later, because of the movie "Cape Seven" , I began to yearn for that coastal city Kenting , because of the "The Girl We Chased Together" , I wanted to go and see Pingxi Railway , because of "My Girls' Generation" , and I was crazy about Taiwan "campus style" ...
△Taipei 101 Building (from the Internet)
But I never expected that the first time I went to Taiwan was not to go to Taipei 101 Building , nor to visit Taipei Forbidden City , Zhongzheng Memorial Hall , not to go to those filming places , but to hibernation , but to hibernation stroll in the countryside, accompanied by blue sky, white clouds, breeze and warm sun, fruit and vegetable farmers.
△Taiwan Regional Map (from Mafengwo)
Taiwan is mainly divided into five regions: north, west, central, southern and eastern. The little madman entered from Taoyuan International Airport in the north, headed south to Nantou County, and then returned to Taipei. The country trip was mainly concentrated in the northwest.

Because, it makes me feel that I am not just a tourist, but also a friend who can integrate into local life.
If you also want a rural trip in Taiwan that is full of experience and gain, then don’t miss it...

There are too many things worth experiencing in Taiwan. I am afraid that there will still be regrets if you stay for a few more days! It is like this, and even if you leave, you will be obsessed with it.
But I am very happy and glad to meet such a Taiwan. It turns out that in-depth experiential travel is much more interesting than "get on the bus and sleep, get off the bus and take photos"; it turns out that there are always people living a life of being with the breeze and being friendly with the sun and the moon; it turns out that happiness will become very simple when returning to nature.
In order to visit Taiwan again, two friends who accompanied him "deliberately" left their clothes there, saying that they would go and get them back in the future.But I left my heart there and had to go and get it back again~ Of course, I can't say what else would fall into there...
If you have always dreamed of building your own courtyard in the countryside, planting flowers and plants, and covering the sunshine, then you must go to the countryside of Taiwan to take a look.
