PART 02 - Tai-FUN - Fun times in Tainan! - a bunch of fun places to experience Tainan
I love good food, but between meals it’s not a bad idea to do something else to spend your time. Today I will introduce you to a few very interesting places that you can experience, learn and spend quality time. Are you ready? Let’s go!
大鋤花間咖啡生態農場 (Dachu Coffee Estate)
If you know me, you know I love coffee. I drink 3 cups of coffee per day. The moment I found out I am going to visit a real coffee plantation I was so thrilled. And, I was right. The place is Dongshan in the beautiful mountains of Tainan. Once you arrive you are surrounded by coffee trees. What can you do here? Of course drink some delicious, fresh coffee. But also there are other things to do: you can learn about coffee planting, processing and roasting methods. What’s more - the owner took us on a ride to the top of the hill where his field is, and the view was truly breath-taking. I took some photos so you can see it but nothing could beat the experience of seeing it with your own eyes. Plus, well, I am not sure if you know ( I didn’t know that before) you can eat coffee straight from the tree there. How interesting! They also serve hot pot and other dishes. It is a place where you can escape from the city with your family and friends.
奇美食品幸福工廠 (Chimei Happiness Factory
Chimei is a well-known Taiwanese food supplier. Going to their museum is quite an experience. I think lots of kids would love to learn how to make traditional Taiwanese foods (such as dumplings or steamed buns). You can also play some interactive games and learn about food safety. But the real highlight is the DIY Pineapple Cake Baking experience - yes, you can make a famous pineapple cake with your own hands, and later take a box home! (that’s not included in the normal ticket). Apart from those two, you can find a coffee shop, bakery, restaurant, and a whole lot of Chimei foods ready to take with you (pineapple cakes, frozen buns and so on). I am sure if you come with younger ones you will have a great visit.
銀器飄香工坊 (Tainan Silver Jewelry & Accessories Workshop)
Taiwan has a long and rich tradition of silver making. I found it really thrilling when the art of making jewelry is mixed with Chinese traditions and beliefs - dragons, buddha and tao symbols, and way more. Lots of them seem to be quite a good investment because they are meant to help you make more money :) Besides, The owner is a really interesting and passionate person who will happily explain to you about the silver making process. They also provide repair and cleaning services.
愛享家寵物樂活館 (IKNOWPETSHOP)
If you are an animal lover, you should definitely check it out. It’s a full service place for your pets (even if you don’t have one - you can adopt one right on the spot). The place offers an animal swimming pool, showers, hotels and a wide variety of animal products and snacks. And the puppies and cats there - please be careful - they may melt your heart in a split second!
Feel free to ask any questions that you have, feel free to share and tag friends that haven’t been to Tainan before or recently, and need to go there with you and… and…. and make sure you stay tuned because there are more stories coming soon!
