Travel to Kaohsiung, Taiwan : Ready to use Itinerary in Kaohsiung


Most people visit to Kaohsiung as a side trip from Taipei. I went to Taipei and Hualien on early April 2016. I regretted so much since my leg was hurting so much and unable to cover many part of Taipei. I then booked my way to Kaohsiung which is the Southern part of Taiwan. I was there for 11 Days / 10 Nights. Yup! too long for some of you thought. I have my own disability to cover this in shorter days. Use up the many number of days to travel and explore at my own phase.

Ready to use itinerary if you fly to Kaohsiung :


* 2 Nights - Kaohsiung
* 2 Nights - Cingjing
* 1 Night - Alishan (overnight at Hotel near Train Station)
* 2 Nights - Sizhuo (Tea plantation Homestay)
* 3 Nights - Kaohsiung 

Where to go in Kaohsiung for 4 Days 3 Nights ?



You don't need 5 nights like me in Kaohsiung. You are much healthier to explore Kaohsiung in shorter days. It is possible to do this in 4 Days 3 Nights.

Day 1 (Full Day)

* Pier 2 Art District - Modern Art Wharf
* The Love River
* Wufu 4th Road
* Central Park Shopping Area


Day 2 (Full Day)

* Visit to Cijin Island
*  Former British Consulate at Dagou
* Kaohsiung Harbour (optional)
* Sizihwan Bay
* Sun Yat Sen University (optional)

Day 3 (Full Day)

* Lotus Pond
* Shopping District at Zuoying District

Day 4 (Full Day)

* Singuang Ferry Wharf
* Sanduo Shopping District
* Kaohsiung Tower

Its meaningless to visit Taiwan and skip the famous night market. There 3 famous night market that I know in Kaohsiung.

* Rueifeng Night Market (I would rather skip this one.)
* NanhuaNight Market (totally prefer this one)
* Liouhe (small scale but still worth to visit)

Where to go if you have 3 Days 2 Nights in Cinjing ?



You don't need 3 Days and 2 Nights here in Cinjing. All you need is just 2 Days / 1 Night. The hotel I stayed provide me with Free entrance ticket to most of the attraction.

Take note, this requires lot of walking and hiking.

* Green green Grassland
* Walking trail
*  Little Swiss
* Book a good hi tea at beautiful castle and sip you tea or coffee with fresh baked bread while enjoying a magnificent view.

Where to go in Alishan ?





It is worth to spend 2 or 3 Nights here in Alishan. I love the natural view here. The hiking trail has a lovely view.

* Catch 4am train to view the sunrise. WTH! no sunrise for me. isk isk isk
* Hiking Trail and breathe lots of fresh air




* Booked yourself at any homestay near tea plantation
* Enjoy the walking trail there while enjoying the beautiful view and breathe lots of fresh air. 




* Explore old town down at Fengzhihu, sample the street food
* Take the Forest Train down to Chiayi


From Chiayi you can take the high speed train back to Kaohsiung. Just a simple itinerary if you are visiting to Kaohsiung. I spent a lot in transportation. High Speed train cost isn't cheap. Its more or less Japan price. But I could say the service here is also almost similar to Japan. You pay higher and you get what you expected. So...I have no complaint at all.

Cosmoderm Luminous A Retinol Review

In general, most people are advised to start using retinol in their mid-20s. Why do we need retinol for our skin? Well, this is because collagen and elastin production starts to slow down. Adding retinol into our skincare routine at age of 25 to 30 is the perfect time to slow down the ageing process. So, what is retinol that people are hyping about? In short, retinol is a topical product containing a vitamin A derivative. Technically speaking a type of retinoid which works to increase collagen production. It helps to treat acne, and blackheads and is also ideal to improve skincare texture such as minimising fine lines, and wrinkles and brightening dull skin. Personally, I am a beginner in adding Retinol into my skincare routine. At the age of 47 years old. I guess, am afraid to start one because I read many side effects if use it wrong.  What is the side effect if you use retinol wrong?  Retinols can increase your skin's sensitivity to sunlight. So, it is advisable to apply th...

Honest Review: Sunplay Skin Aqua Hyaluronic Acid Serum UV

  When I first picked up the Sunplay Skin Aqua Hyaluronic Acid Serum UV , the sleek blue bottle already gave me that “hydrating luxury” vibe. Unlike the usual heavy sunscreens or sticky sunblocks, this one feels more like a skincare serum than a typical sunscreen. That’s the first big difference ! It’s marketed as a serum UV , not just a sunblock. Texture & Application The texture is lightweight, almost watery-gel like, and it spreads effortlessly across the skin. No greasy residue, no sticky film, and most importantly.....  no white cast . This is a huge win for those of us who hate looking like a ghost after applying sunscreen. It absorbs quickly, leaving the skin feeling supple and hydrated, almost like you’ve just applied a hydrating essence. This is where it stands out! It doesn’t just sit on top of your skin to block UV rays, it actually locks in hydration thanks to the 3 types of Hyaluronic Acid (HA, Absorbent HA, Nano HA). Think of it as a sunscreen that doubles ...
