Best Taitung Souvenirs

From Kenting, I took train to Taitung via Fangliao train station. Brown Avenue : An idyllic path in Chishang Township, Taitung County, which was popular for shooting advertisements for Braun coffee, is known as a "green paradise road." The vast green rice fields, there is no power pole on the roadside, really feel the endless, not only has a good view of the photo, but also can take the mind away from the hustle and bustle, and experience the pureness of relaxation.
Only a 5-minute drive from Taitung Railway Station and Taitun Airport, Formosan Naruwan Hotel features shuttle services. Domestic visitors and those from nearby countries stay for three to four nights on average. With 台東必吃美食 its pleasant climate and stunning views, international visitors flock to Hualien, where there's plenty in the way of accommodation and other amenities - not to mention the famous Taroko Gorge just a few miles away.

Jointly sponsored by the Taitung County government, East Coast National Scenic Area and Taitung County Cultural Affairs Association, the "2013 Taitung Music Festival" will take place at three well-known tourist spots along Taiwan's beautiful east coast - Taitung Waterfront Park, Sansiantai, and Siaoyeliou.
The island was classified as an ethnographic reservation by the Japanese during the colonial area, and closed to ordinary visitors until the 60s, and is the only place in Taiwan where the original aboriginal population has not been drowned by waves of immigration.

While enjoying your 2011 New Year tour in Taitung, you surely do not want to miss taking hot spring baths at Jhihben Hot Spring Jhihben Hot Springs are odorless and colorless alkali carbonate springs with a temperature ranging from 45 to 56 degrees Celsius that are famous since the period of Japanese colonization.
The most convenient and straightforward way to get to Taitung from Taipei is by the local train 台鐵 managed by TRA. It looks down over bluffs to the floor of the Beinan River, which flows out to sea at Taitung City, and looks across at the Luye Highland, venue for the annual Taiwan International Balloon Festival.
Breakfast serve at hotel, visit to Chihsingtan Beach. This re-purposed space now hosts many permanent art exhibits and performers, as well as a tourist shop selling souvenirs for visitors. The difficulty of travelling to this hinterland of Taiwan has turned Taitung into a reclusive haven, like a lonely island within an island nation.

After breakfast, enjoy an east coast scenic train ride to Yilan. The northernmost section of the Weekend Jianguo Market is where you'll find local Taipei artists plying their craft, so go have a look (but only on the weekends; on the weekdays the place is a parking garage).
Drive along the East Rift Valley and visiting the Luye Gaotai and the Chishang Rice Village before reaching the Chishingtan Beach. Taitung hotels such as Chief Spa Hotel , Rainbow Resort, and Taitung Bali Suites Hotel are great Taitung accommodations for your Taitung tour.

Visit SuSu Second-Hand Bookstore & Guesthouse in the city center and play with the local owners' two pet cats who call the shelves their home. After a much welcome ice cream (it was 32 degrees and humid today), we left the east coast and headed across the mountains to the west coast, including a stop for lunch (beef noodle soup today).
When the hotel staff recommended fried chicken, I thought I heard wrongly as I was rather surprised since fried chicken is so common place and how good can fried chicken taste in Taitung. This tour starts in Taipei and takes you around the most important spots of Taiwan.

Their combined market value is five times that of Taiwanese athletes, and it provides Taitung with a hefty sum of international tourism revenue. The park contains a Chinese-style garden with elegant buildings, pavilions kiosks, streams, fountains and ponds for visitors to relax and enjoy the cooler climate.
