The first stop of your one-day tour to Taichung is Zhonshe Flower Market, where there are vibrant flowers vibrant floral seas bloom throughout the year, such as sunflowers, roses, lavenders and more and more. You can wash away all worries and fatigue in the fragrance of the flowers, and learn to coexist with nature among the flower groves.
Miyahara is a red-brick architecture built by Miyahara Takeo, a Japanese ophthalmology doctor in 1927. It was the largest ophthalmology clinic in Taichung during the Japanese colonial period.

Fantastic day! The arrival instructions were very clear, Peter was very knowledgeable and funny, and the itinerary was extremely smooth. Would definitely book again!
The guide, Eva, and the driver were excellent. The rainbow village was the highlight for me, along with the ice cream shop and the wetlands. I could’ve used a little more time at the rainbow village instead of the stop at the theatre, but that’s just a small suggestion.
We had a great time on this 1-day tour to see the highlights of Taichung. Our tour guide Tony was very professional.
We had a memorable experience in Taichung 🤍 It’s a must see in Taiwan and we will definitely be back to see the other cities
I didn't mean to sign up for the English tour, but the English tour surprised me. But they also mixed in Chinese here and there, so I didn't have any trouble. Thank you for the guide.

For the first time, traveling by bus to several famous attractions is actually too convenient to save a lot of traffic time. The guide explained it was interesting. The floral variety of the flower market and the remote mountain views are very relaxing. Mayan Eye and Rainbow Village experience a different cultural atmosphere. The last high-quality wetlands are really worth visiting, and the sunset and vast sea views make the perfect phrase for the journey. In short, highly recommend this trip!
It was really fun, especially the tour guide and humor, not only detailed the tour, but also gave a lot of careful advice, the whole trip was very pleasant and a great day trip.
