Top Culture in Taichung

If you're on a budget, look for discount passes for nearby attractions. I ended up saving a decent amount by visiting places with combo tickets.

Bring a water bottle. They have places to refill, and it’ll save you some cash instead of buying drinks inside. Plus, you'll stay hydrated while exploring!

Try to visit on a weekday if you can. The crowds were much thinner, and I really enjoyed taking my time looking at the pieces without rushing through!

Don't skip the gift shop! There's some unique art-inspired souvenirs that I didn’t expect to find. Just be aware some items can be pricier than you think

There’s a small coffee shop inside—grab a drink and take a break while looking at the views. I wish I had taken the time to relax there!

Pay attention to the local events! Sometimes there are art installations or performances happening that really enhance the experience... I didn't see one last time and wish I had!

Grab a drink at one of the riverside cafes. They have some tasty options that won't break the bank, and it’s nice to rest a bit!
