Taiwan’s third largest city, Taichung is located west of the country’s central region and just 40 minutes drive from the larger cities of Taipei and Kaohsiung. Despite a predominantly urban environment, the city benefits from relatively close proximity to the coast and has the highest concentration of parks of any city on the island.

As a tourist destination, Taichung has plenty to offer, presenting visitors with a wealth of cultural attractions, an excellent selection of outdoor activity options, some great dining establishments and an infrastructure well geared towards providing comfort and convenience for holidaymakers.
