#Natural Landscape Address: No. 18, Xueshan Road, Heping District, Taichung City, Taiwan 424 Atmosphere/Facilities: Parking lot, visitor center, hiking trails, natural scenery, accommodation at Snow Mountain Villa, Features: Natural summer air conditioning, Shenmu Forest, Tianchi Lake, sea of ​​clouds, mountain mist Price per person: 200 yuan Rating: A natural summer resort with an altitude of more than 2,000 meters, Daxueshan National Forest Recreation Area was planned from the original Daxueshan Forest Farm. It is located in Heping District, Taichung City and is rich in forest resources. In the hot summer weather, the temperature in the city is still over 30 degrees, but the temperature in the mountains is dropping as the altitude increases. Arriving at the visitor center, the temperature is in an air-conditioned environment below 20 degrees. Because of this, the crowds are relatively large in summer, whether on weekdays or holidays. The park charges separately for people and vehicles, 200 yuan per person and 100 yuan per vehicle. Taichung citizens can enjoy free admission to the park, which is considered as a maintenance fee for the national park. The biggest feature of the parking lot on the left side of the entrance to the park is the row of modified camping cars. People will gather in the forest area next to the parking lot for picnics, which is very lively. From time to time, mountain mist and sea of ​​clouds cover the entire parking lot, and occasionally you will encounter the parking lot manager's blue-bellied pheasant. But you need to come early or it will be hard to get a seat. There are pavilions and restrooms here. Further inside, the visitor center provides a complete tour guide and Snow Mountain Villa accommodation area. Considering the current high housing prices in Taiwan, this is considered a low- to medium-priced property. Accommodation is mainly in log cabins, which can be booked through the official website. The visitor center has ample parking space, side stairs, tables, chairs and a water heater. It is suitable for drinking tea, chatting, feeling the sea of ​​clouds and mountains, or enjoying the most delicious hot instant noodles in the mountains. As you drive up to Tianchi and the mountain entrance, the road is narrow and you need to drive slowly and carefully and watch out for oncoming vehicles, especially buses, because the buses on the mountain drive very fast and the driving skills are not very good. Very dangerous. There are frequent collisions between buses and private vehicles on the road, and bus drivers keep complaining that the roads are too small. Warm reminder: The forest park is non-road land, in the event of a traffic accident. The police will not issue a preliminary judgment form, so it doesn't matter whose fault it is. The liability for the accident is shared equally by both parties, even if there is insurance coverage. It will also lead to an increase in insurance premiums. It is better to drive carefully. #100 Ways to Travel
