The second weekend in Taiwan, we went up to Taichung.
After meeting with our friends, we decided to book a taxi and head up to Nantou, where we visited Ching Jing Farm and Little Swiss Garden. The taxi is about NTD4200 the whole day.
It takes around 2 hours to reach from Taichung.
*Breakfast - Fried Egg with Bacon and Mi Jiang.
NTD 25 + 15
p/s: Mi Jiang is a peanut drink.
You can apply it at various places and you just need to bring your passport with you and fill in a form. https://youthtravel.tw/sub_en/card/location.php
This farm is divided into two parts. The first is the farm where you can see sheeps roaming about.

9am and 3pm if not mistaken but i am sure the taxi driver would know.
*Sheep wool from the show.
*Goat milk ice cream
Sticks at NTD 35, Cups at NTD 50.
*Amazing Landscapes
*Lamb petting.
*Roaming sheep
*Fat and round sheep
Part two of the farm where generally you can take cute and nice pictures and to also enjoying the amazing mountain view. only required to pay once.
*Cafe uphill.
In between these two places are stores selling products and food stalls.
It would be wise to compare prices to get the best discount.

*Original Taiwan Sausage
NTD 30

However, they do sell it NTD 25 for small size, NTD 35 for large i think.
*Vegetarian Toufu with Vege.
NTD 50
There's also a Cartoon King Outlet here, whereby they sell paper-made stuffs.
On the way back, we dropped by OLD ENGLAND for photo. It's a majestic place for the rich and we can only take photos from the outside so nothing much.
Then we dropped by this place for a late lunch recommended by one of the therapist.
The highlight of the meal is the chicken whereby it is being cooked the traditional way.
*The view.
*We ordered a set of meal for 6. NTD 200 per person.
The stove above is used to cook the chicken.
In the evening, we dropped by Puli, a small town in Nantou. This is the famous wine brewery but unfortunately it's closed when we reached.
Then we also went to the Paper Dome. Entrance fee is NTD 80 but it's actually a voucher whereby you can use it to claim drinks or use it when buying souvenirs.
For dinner, we decided to drop by Feng Jia Night Market, situated near FengJia University.
It is a very famous and big night market and you can get there by bus. However, i forgot which bus number to take so the easy way is to ask the locals or the bus drivers before getting on.
Since we weren't hungry, we decided to opt for local snacks.
*Smelly toufu.
NTD 100.
*Da Chang Bao Xiao Chang ( Small sausage in big sausage)
NTD 60
*JUICE
*Teokbokki since someone was craving for spicy food.
NTD 100.
We spent the night shopping around the area until 1am!! The ladies were satisfied with their purchases.
Then we took the taxi back to our guesthouse, costs us around NTD 200.
Thats all for this post and thank you if you read it through. XD
