Day 2 Tainan
Taking the high-speed train down to the south, today, we are going to explore the historical city, Tainan. Taiwan was colonized by the Dutch in the 17th century. Nothing's more authentic than going on an epic scooter ride! Yes, now we are truly becoming the locals! Tainan is incredible with all the temples and attractions from the colonial period. Of course, we end the day with more Taiwanese food!

Chihkan Tower (Fort Provintia)
Yes! We are going paragliding today! One of the must-tries if you are not afraid of height. Nothing can beat that panorama view when you are high in the sky, overviewing the East Rift Valley. Breath-taking! Continuing the day with a nice bike ride, our final stop of the day was the tea house. Taiwan's tea has been famous for more than 150 years. Learning about tea culture while sipping the best Oolong tea. Life is not too bad :)
