Arriving early isn't necessarily better, as the boat only opens when it's full. Online sources say it opens at 8:00 AM, but the ticket booths only open at 8:15 AM, and the site is disinfected around 8:30 AM. If you bought tickets online, remember to exchange them at the Dazhong Temple first. Buy one ticket for each trip. Children are free, but still need to purchase a NT$30 insurance fee (which also includes a ticket). Children are only charged based on their ticket, not their age. Tickets for the Taijiang and Sicao routes are sold in the same place, just at separate booths. The Taijiang boat doesn't depart until around 10:00 AM, so travelers with planned itineraries should take note. However, the staff on-site helped us exchange our tickets. Sicao is beautiful; I hope to take the Taijiang boat next time! 😊
Whether you like Sanrio or not, you should ride this train. Meals are served during the journey, and you can drink as many drinks as you like for free.
