Description

On this guided adventure, you will start exploring the city from the old Taichung Train Station, traced back 100 years. Continue with a visit to the old and very stylish Miyahara Sweet Shop. Then, along the river Midorikawa, you will have a glimpse of ASEAN Square, which previously was named First Market but has changed dramatically over 80 years.
Following, you will find out that the hard-working people on the herbal street and Jiguang street still live in the old-time memories. They smile and shout for the old skills and methods in order to protect those losing stories.
Next, the tour will take you to two totally different ice cream shops, one with Taiwan local shaved ice (Mitsumame) and the other one with over 70 flavours of ice cream (Fourth Credit cooperative bank). Finally, stop at the DRF Goodot Village, a co-working space with many organizations committed to promoting the central district of Taichung.

Let’s have fun together in Downtown Taichung!

An absolutely wonderful walking tour!

Flora was punctual, professional, knowledgeable, and explained everything in such a clear, dynamic, and entertaining way. The places she showed us were fascinating, and we learned so much about Taichung and its history. But what impressed us most was Flora herself. She is an incredibly kind and generous person, and you can immediately see how passionate she is about her work. She was attentive to us at every moment and did everything she could to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. She even shared food and drinks with us, which was such a lovely and unexpected gesture. Her warmth, generosity, and genuine care made the experience feel much more personal than a normal guided tour. She truly puts her heart into what she does. 100% recommended! If you are visiting Taichung, do not hesitate to book this tour with Flora. She is wonderful, and thanks to her we will remember our visit to Taichung with an even bigger smile. ❤️
