My first trip to Taipingshan coincided with a cold snap; the temperature on the mountain was only 1 degree Celsius, and with the rain, it felt even colder. This resulted in seeing different scenery, but unfortunately, the fog obscured the mountain peaks. With eight passengers on the bus, the seating was a bit cramped, so it wasn't advisable to bring too much luggage. If you get motion sickness, take medication. Having been to Smangus in Hsinchu, I found the mountain roads on Taipingshan to be quite manageable. When visiting Jiuzhize, I don't recommend cooking just two ears of corn; the water will wash them out of the bamboo basket, making them difficult to find. It's advisable to cook with a group. Finally, we visited a tea-producing area; the hot tea was delicious, and the braised dishes were on the sweeter side.
Initially had a little trouble with signal dropping, but after that, the gadget worked flawlessly. For all but one day, I didn’t have to recharge the device granted I only used data for Google map and texting. For the price and convenience, would definitely get again. More info on where the kiosk is located would help customers., such as a simple map.
