The overall experience was excellent. From the delicious food to the warm hospitality of the crew, it was definitely worth the trip. However, it was a bit of a shame that we didn't catch much in early April and there were no stars in the sky. But the significance of night fishing is unique.
First of all, the shopkeepers were very friendly. The guide who led the hike to Hill 401 on April 11th was very friendly and professional, and the instructor who brought up the rear was also very friendly. 1. This is really challenging; assess your own abilities, as the hot and humid weather will increase the difficulty. 2. Bring an extra set of clothes; you'll be soaked through after the hike, and your underwear will be completely drenched. 3. Bring a small handheld fan; the dense forest areas are windless, damp, and stuffy, with few well-ventilated spots. 4. Bring a parasol; you'll need it for the island loop. You won't need it for the hike itself, but it can be used as a walking stick. 5. Some steps are very slippery; wear shoes with good grip because it's very damp, and the fresh fallen leaves are sap-covered, making it very slippery. 6. Fog is normal, but without fog, the clear blue sky would be unbearably hot. 7. Get a massage when you get back; definitely massage your legs and stretch, otherwise your legs will be very sore. 8. We set sail promptly at 8:00 AM and returned to Wushi Port around 2:30 PM. We didn't see any dolphins or whales on the way there or back. The boat trip was half an hour each way, so we didn't need to take seasickness medication, but we still saw one or two people vomiting.
First of all, the tea experience was fantastic! At the beginning, a staff member showed us how to prepare the tea as a demonstration, and after that, it was self-service. It seems you can take home any leftover tea leaves, but there are no fasteners, so it's convenient to bring a rubber band or something similar. Next, the scenery was absolutely beautiful✨ I spent the whole time wandering around Jiufen until our reservation time, but I was able to take the best photos there🤳 We were seated on the second floor, but it was also possible to go up to the third floor to take photos. A staff member near the entrance called out to us and took photos of us with Jiufen in the background, and even guided us to a place where we could take even more beautiful photos. Everyone was incredibly kind.
