【Lukang Old Street】
Since Lugang was mainly engaged in trade in the past, the area near the port became an important stronghold for shipping and merchants due to its convenient geographical location. Yaolin Street, Putou Street and Dayou Street are located near the river and thus are concentrated areas of shipping companies and docks. The Old Street, the main trunk of the wharf area when Lukang was prosperous, is now the Putou, Yaolin and Dayou streets. The winding red brick alleys are lined with renovated old-style shophouses. Their mysterious interior layout and old-style appearance are intriguing. Some of the old Lukang's features can be found here. Walking into the red brick roads of Yaolin and Putou Streets, one will naturally feel a sense of antiquity, as if entering a time tunnel. The old mansions with a southern Fujian style, the various evil-avoiding antiques on the door lintels, and the door couplets on both sides all tell the pace and lifestyle of the elders in the old days. In recent years, as sightseeing and collecting folk customs have become popular, some homeowners have opened folk art shops, providing tourists with many places to stop while reminiscing about the past. The streets are particularly winding, sometimes even with a series of right-angle turns. This is a display of the wisdom of our ancestors and their adaptation to the hardships of life. When walking on the street, please carefully experience the historical stories contained in each twist and turn. After a long period of time, the atmosphere here has changed from the former bustling and prosperous to the current indifferent and leisurely.

【National Taichung Theater】
Located in the Phase 7 redevelopment area of ​​Xitun District, Taichung City, it is a large public exhibition and performance space designed by Pritzker Prize-winning Japanese architect Toyo Ito. The National Taichung Opera House is blessed with three professional theaters and a multi-functional space called the "Corner Salon" within this perfect building. If you add the plaza under the blue sky and white clouds, the outdoor theater, and the rooftop sky garden, the opera house can be said to be a charming stage from the inside to the outside, from the ground to the roof.

【Taiwan Miso Brewing Culture Museum】
About Weirong SAUCECO Hidden in a small alley in Fengyuan, Weirong's delicious soy sauce has been matured for more than 70 years. The rich and mellow taste has been slowly simmered over a long period of time, making it the number one brand of organic miso and organic black bean soy sauce in Taiwan. The founder, Mr. Xu Huolie, established the first professional brewing production factory in central Taiwan in 1945, using Taiwan's excellent local agricultural products to produce miso, red yeast rice and bean paste products. In 1976, Mr. Xu Zonglin took over and introduced production lines for black bean soy sauce and canned pickled vegetables. In 1999, the third generation, Mr. Xu Lisheng, standardized the production process and successfully introduced "food safety", "organic brewing" and "industrial tourism" to break through the traditional industry framework and enhance brand value. In order to continue the spirit of Taiwan's brewing culture and promote local cultural crafts and agricultural products, Weirong established the country's first miso brewing culture museum. Through five-sense experience handcraft activities, using the concept of "mobile museum" and local revitalization operations, we will continue to revitalize and prosper the region. The exterior of the building was constructed using the concept of environmentally friendly green architecture. The museum displays century-old antique cedar barrels, koji boxes, etc., and introduces the origins, history and types of early brewed foods. It helps people understand miso and a variety of brewed foods, and provides people with safer, richer and healthier kitchen sauces and cultural and creative souvenirs. Eat your fill and savor the delicious meal. When visiting here, you may want to arrange a Baihe Lotus Tour and go to the Lotus Park to admire the beautiful lotus flowers, adding beautiful memories to this trip.
