前陣子到臺中出差，入住的旅館剛好就在西區。
早上起床，會先到附近的市民廣場快走，工作告一段落，需要喘口氣時，就到國美館看看展覽，逛逛勤美誠品綠園道。
來臺中這麼多次，如果要選一個地方住下來，那我肯定會選這一區。
這段時間的藝文展覽圈，許多人都在為「故宮」、「國寶」、「龍藏經」和「七世福報」瘋狂。
其實，不用排 3 個小時的隊，也不用搞懂新的預約系統，到故宮南院就有機會悠悠哉哉獨享《龍藏經》。
"Forgive this unaccomplished self."— Battle City II: Economic Miracle
New Taipei City ◦ Shuangxi | A Charming Town Featuring a Century-Old Historic Street | TAIWAN 368-76
走過兩百多個鄉鎮，雙溪讓我特別難忘，由於商區和景點距離很近，從雙溪車站出發，用走的就能串起昔日的繁華和今日的靜謐。
When people think of Liouying, often praised as Taiwan’s “hometown of dairy cows,” the first thing that comes to mind is its rich and fragrant fresh milk. I’m a devoted fan of Liouying milk myself. On this visit to Liouying, I discovered not only the local Liu clan culture, but also artists who left a profound impact on the worlds of painting and music. Only then did I realize there is another side of Liouying—one that is truly captivating.
距離上次走進故宮，已經是十幾年前的事了，這次再訪，光是一開始的購票就讓我目瞪口呆！
作為台灣首屈一指、館藏三天三夜也看不完的博物館，門票竟然只要 150 元，外籍人士也才 350！
在如今特展動輒三百五百、電影票 320 元起跳的環境下，故宮也太佛心太划算了吧！
Every time I visit Tainan, I am either amazed by its time-honored cuisine, lingering among historic sites, or discovering unexpected scenery in its narrow alleys. This time, a walk into the North District brought all three delights at once. Tainan is simply a city that never grows tiresome, no matter how many times you return.
I remember that when I was graduating from high school and preparing for university entrance exams, a close friend made a special trip to Taichung to take a local train—just to collect a commemorative ticket that read “Zhuifen–Chenggong” (which sounds like “pursuing success” in Chinese) and wish me good luck.
Taiwan has many historic streets. Hukou Old Street isn’t particularly famous, yet it’s a place I find myself wanting to return to again and again. To me, this is when travel feels most meaningful. Some well-known attractions don’t linger long in my memory; instead, it’s the unexpected surprises—places I didn’t have high hopes for at the outset—that leave the deepest impressions in my heart.
When I arrived in Budai, I thought the highlight would be its bountiful seafood. To my surprise, what truly moved me was the magnificent history of salt production—a tradition that has stretched on for over two centuries and still leaves traces everywhere in the town.
