The people of Taiwan's customs and traditions, answer good plus points!
And below, a la carte.
Finding serenity in Taipei's downtown
The Kang Qinglong neighborhood in the southern part of downtown Taipei is completely different from the downtown that people traditionally think of. Instead of being loud and noisy, or modern and stylish, this is a space of elegance that relaxes the mind and body. It has a simple name - South Village.
South Village borrows the name of East Village in New York, which is full of humanistic and bohemian flavors, to show the local customs of all corners of Taiwan and to promote a slow and happy lifestyle.
Walking into a tea room called "Yetang", there is no prominent signboard outside, but when you push open the door, there is a whole new world inside. Tea pots and bowls, tea leaves in various packages, paintings and calligraphy on tea, and ancient and modern books on tea fill the traditional Chinese furniture to overflowing. The rustic interior furnishings and the relaxing environment carefully created by the owner add to the charm of the tea room. Our host, Mr. He Jian, served us a cup of hot tea and invited us to sit down. Sipping the tea, staying a while, and chatting with Ken about Taiwan's tea culture, we suddenly felt that we had added so much new knowledge.
After sipping the ponkan tea at Yedang, we walked into the only guqin museum in Taipei, the Waiting Hall. It is a space full of oriental poetry, with a Zen flavor in its simple furnishings. From time to time, the sound of the guqin drifts out of the museum, sometimes softly and sometimes forcefully, making people stop for long periods of time. The museum offers classes and lectures on the guqin, making it a place to meet friends with the instrument. It is a quiet and cozy place like a basin of fresh water in the bustling Taipei. Just listen to a piece of ancient music to calm your bustling mind.
The vegetarian restaurant "Hui Liu", which combines classical and modern elements, is decorated with flower arrangements, calligraphy, and pottery, and sitting down to savor the elegant food, one really feels like returning to nature. There are many other similar venues in Nanchunlu, such as "Chang Yi Fang", which sells handmade cloth bag opera puppets and Taiwanese flower cloth, a small store selling handmade chocolates, and "Huo Jin Gu Studio", which sells second-hand design lamps. "These small stores are trying to share the heritage and accumulation of life, to make business into culture, and to show the texture and light of human feelings in daily life in Taipei." Han Lianglu, director of South Village, told reporters.
To the mountain villages to feel the ethnic flavor
To the countryside of Taiwan, to feel the pure and simple ethnic flavor, is also a good choice for free travel. For example, Nanzhuang Township in Miaoli County is mainly inhabited by the Hakka ethnic group. The Hakka people in Miaoli usually treat their guests with "beaten tea", and we experienced the process of making authentic Hakka beaten tea at the Shishitou Shanli Tea House.
The Hakka word "擂" means "to grind with a wooden stick. The Hakka tea is a way of life that the Hakka people brought to Taiwan from the mainland. A few of us sat down around the table, and the tools for making the tea were already on the table, namely the bowl and the stick. The bowl is a ceramic bowl with a caliber of about 50 centimeters, with many grooves inside the bowl to make it easy to grind. The stick is a wooden stick made from the trunk of the oil tea tree, about 80 centimeters long. Under the guidance of our host, we poured the tea leaves and peanuts, sesame seeds, melon seeds, pine nuts and other ingredients into the bowl, ground them into powder with the stick, added popcorn, and brewed them with boiling water, and a special aroma of tea filled the air at once. At this time, breathing the fresh air in the valley, sip a Hakka tea, all feel comfortable.
Continuing to the mountains. Between the green hills and trees are a few huts where the Nanzhuang Shibi Dyeing and Weaving Workshop is housed for visitors to experience the dyeing and weaving techniques of Taiwan's aboriginal Atayal people. Each of us held a square piece of white cotton cloth and followed the example of the workshop's owner, Lin Shuli, who used leather straps and small wooden sticks to fold the cloth into different shapes, then put it into the natural dyes made from the unique local plant, Ma Lan, to soak and rub it in, and after an hour or so, a piece of Atayal floral cloth had been dyed.
Dapeng Bay: a good place for ecological recreation
Pingtung's Dapeng Bay Scenic Area is Taiwan's only single-ported, sac-like "lagoon," and a place where Taiwanese love to go on holidays, with almost no mainland tour groups visiting.
Dapeng Bay is rich in flora and fauna, and the mangrove forests around the lake are home to many tidal crabs, which leisurely move their small bodies on the wetlands. This is a very dense growth of sea ibis trees, the age of the tree has been 70 years, and because it is located in the mouth of the sea, the growth of aerial roots is very luxuriant.
Take a dinghy to the center of Dapeng Bay "oyster shell island", the whole island by the oyster shells piled up and become, when the tide is high, the island is submerged in the water, as the ebb tide floating in the water like a pearl.
The Qingzhou coastal area next to the Dapeng Bay estuary has a long stretch of beach, known as "Taiwan's Hawaii", with children's pools, coastal trails, beach volleyball, restaurants and other observation. In one of the fishery culture exhibition halls, elementary school students from Taichung are visiting the fishing process of fish and shrimp.
Sporty tourists can ride on the 16.4-kilometer-long bike path around the bay, a two-hour trip, stopping at any time to enjoy the scenery of fishing villages, sunset seawalls, mangroves and other beautiful sights, and also choose from the more exciting programs here, such as military tunnel explorations, canoeing, windsurfing, hand-rowing boats, bumper boats and light airplanes. Or go 14 kilometers out to sea to enjoy the unique geological landscape of Little Liuqiu, the only coral reef island offshore Taiwan.
Experience colorful industrial tourism
There are quite a few industrial tourism projects in Taiwan, and all of them have hands-on components. At the Xinglong Towel Tourism Factory in Yunlin County, we followed our guide and visited the production procedures of towel design and layout, yarn selection, pre-bleaching, warping, sizing and weaving. The tour guide also explained to us how to select better quality towels based on color, fragrance, taste and water absorption. After the visit, it is time for tourists to experience, we in the guide's guidance, with a small square towel, folding, clip clip, and then so a set of a few minutes, a naive puppies, rabbits, cakes and other small toys were born.
Boss Lin Ying Sui said, due to the pressure of competition is too great, they came up with the production of styling towels this new idea, but also with the form of tourism marketing, the effect is really good, not only to drive the sales of towels, but also so that tourists can be modeling towels through the production of towels, towels, towels, towels, knowledge of the industry.
The content of Taiwan's industrial tourism tour is varied, both to the centuries-old soy sauce factory to visit the soy sauce and tempeh ancient production process, to the brewery to visit the brewing process, to the bicycle factory to assemble a belong to your own car, but also to the shoe factory to see the complete process of shoemaking, to the pencil factory to make a pen. Visitors can thus feel the real state of Taiwanese business and life.
