Yehliu Ocean World

The show was better than the one in Okinawa. The seal Coca-Cola was adorable, and the dolphins were incredibly well-behaved. You could see they genuinely loved the animals and had a wonderful rapport with them; occasionally, you'd see them kissing or bumping heads without warning. The high-diving performers were a little awkward at first, but considering their circus-like comedic style, you could tell they were putting on a really good show. The all-inclusive ticket included the Underwater World on B1, which is definitely worth seeing. It's Taiwan's first aquarium (designed by the master architect Yang Ying-feng). Though small, it's fully equipped, offering a free mini-X-Park experience. Luckily, we included it in our itinerary; even if we didn't have time to see the Queen's Head aquarium, it wasn't a big deal.
