Yizhong Shopping District

Miyahara Eye Clinic cake shop and ice cream parlor

Situated by the Green River (Luchuan) close to Taichung Train Station, the Miyahara Eye Clinic was founded by Dr.Miyahara Takekuma during the Japanese colonial era. While the red-brick walls and clinic signage were converted into components of a nostalgic, wooden-roofed arcade, the clinic's high-ceiling interior space now features bookcase-inspired storage cabinets, complete with a library-like classification system to conjure up a magical atmosphere.

Taichung Park

The 100-plus year old Taichung Park has long been a landmark of Taichung CIty. In addition to the Taichung Park has long been a landmark of Taichung City. In addition to the Taichung Park Pavilion, a city-designated historic site and a city icon, the park boasts a poetic landscape with lush foliage and historically significant elements, notably Paotaishan (known in earlier days as "Da-dun") and Moon Pavilion is currently the only recognizable remnant from what was once the Taiwan Prefecture. These quaint structures bear witness to Taiwan's history.

A gold-painted, 7-story-tall Maitreya Buddha statue is considered the temple's icon, equally as important as the You-ai Belfry and Seven-Tier Pagoda. This gigantic Buddha is also a popular spot for snapshots.

Known for it's diverse flora and fauna, the Dongshi Forest Park includes a firefly zone that offers an opportunity to closely observe this dazzling insect. Highlights of the park include an array of spring-flowering trees (cherry, Prunus, peach, apricot and azalea)' a "summer snowfall" created by falling Tung blossom petals; the striking summer blossoms of Indoor azaleas, Bauhinia blakeana and wild peonies; and the colorful autumn foliage of Tung and maple trees that morphs into winter's bleak leafless branches. The park provides a perfect getaway that distinctly showcases each season.
