Speaking of my trip to Taiwan Province, I'm actually quite ashamed. I went there in February this year, but I only wrote travel notes at that time, but I failed to sort out a complete strategy. I'm very sorry. Today, I sorted out and covered the travel expenses along the way. You who want to go to Taiwan Province can also use it.

Taiwan Province Island has always been a mystery to me personally. All I know is that it's beautiful and there are too many sights I want to see. I live in Xiamen, across the sea from Taiwan Province Island for three years, but I have never been to Taiwan Province. I feel a little sorry.

in December p>215, I made up my mind to go to Taiwan Province, and I began to plan this free trip. I've been thinking for a long time about documents, accommodation and how to play, glad you came.

I went to Taiwan Province with my boyfriend. Two people, who went there during the Spring Festival, went to Taiwan Province for a Spring Festival and met with the Kaohsiung earthquake, which was a unique experience in their lives.

From February 4th to 12th, I spent nine days and eight nights in Taiwan Province, so many memories of my life. I think I can't forget the days that passed and the stories that happened along the way after all.

to this day, I still remember my trip several months ago so deeply. I don't know when I can go again, but to be honest, Taiwan Province is a place worth visiting many times. Only when you really arrive can you really appreciate the scenery and people there.

hearsay may not be true, but seeing is believing. I. Documents for going to Taiwan Province

Documents required for going to Taiwan Province: Mainland residents' travel pass to and from Taiwan and entry permit

It should be noted here that the pass was issued by the mainland and the entry permit was issued by the Immigration Department of Taiwan Province. Only when you have a pass can you apply for an entry permit. You can only go to Taiwan Province Island if you have both certificates.

At present, Jinmapeng is an outlying island in Taiwan Province, and you can go to landing visa. That is, you don't need to apply for an entry permit, but you can go by boat in Xiamen with your pass. But I can't go to Taiwan Province Island. If you want to go to Taiwan Province Island, you must have an entry permit.

I won't go into details here. After all, it's easy to handle. However, the entry permit often stumbles too many people. Conditions for applying for an entry permit

Many people find it troublesome to see this, but it's actually fine. I have to say that Taobao is so convenient in mainland China that everything can be settled. However, this kind is only suitable for residents who can travel freely in cities, mainly by looking at the G sign on the pass, that is, personal endorsement.

[Remarks: The validity period of one endorsement of the Pass is six months, while the validity period of the Entry Permit is three months, and the entry stay is 15 days at a time, so it is necessary to plan the itinerary. [

There are too many interesting places in Taiwan Province, so it's not enough to go once. It's my first time, and I can only travel around the island.

◎ how to apply for an entry permit? Precautions!

The entry permit often encounters minor problems:

1. What if there is no emergency contact?

2. What should I do without proof of income?

The general price of an entry permit is: 15-2 (all conditions are complete)

In fact, an entry permit is a thin piece of paper. The above picture shows my personal entry permit to Taiwan Province in February. Looking for a travel agency in Taobao can handle those who have no emergency contact and no property certificate, but on one condition, the price will be higher.

I won't name which travel agency it is, so you can search for it yourself. We don't have an emergency contact. Emergency contact is too troublesome, and it is very troublesome to get any proof of relatives.

proof of income, it's easy for a company to find a job directly with an annual salary of more than 13,. It is only used to apply for an entry permit, and the company will generally issue it.

to get in touch with the travel agency store, you just need to send the required materials one by one in electronic form. In almost a week, the certificate will be done. It is an electronic version, and you can print it yourself. There are some coupons attached, and our schedule is too tight to get them.

Entry fee: 454 [two, one is 228, and I used the voucher to reduce or exempt 2 yuan]

Second, how to get to Taiwan Province Island?

There is an advantage to starting in Xiamen. You can try the mini three links. Small three links, the price is favorable, and tickets are easy to buy, and the price will not fluctuate because of the light season. It's convenient, but it's more suitable for travelers from Xiamen and Quanzhou. If you can only fly directly: If it is not convenient to Xiamen or Quanzhou, you can only fly directly. Generally, it flies directly to Songshan or Taoyuan in Taipei. Personally, according to your accommodation, choose the airport, and generally fly to Taoyuan.

it's best to buy a plane ticket two months in advance, or you won't get a special ticket at all. Of course, it doesn't matter if you are not short of money.

There is a small disadvantage here: you may have to go through Taipei twice, that is, Taipei enters Taipei and exits, so you have to go back and choose the mini three links: the mini three links are from Xiamen Wutong Wharf and Quanzhou Shijing Wharf, take a boat to Kinmen, and then fly to any city on the island of Taiwan Province.

this is the advantage of choosing mini-three links, and there is no turning back. You can fly from Kinmen to where you want to go, and choose the most suitable city according to your itinerary.

And it's very convenient to choose mini-three links. Take Xiamen as an example, take a boat from Wutong Wharf, and it takes half an hour to get to Kinmen. When you get there, you can directly find the airline to push your luggage, take the bus to the airport according to the instructions, and then board the plane. It is very convenient to have a special ground connection company when going back and forth.

◎ mini-links booking and expenses

Booking tips:

Search "Hello Taiwan Province" directly, which is a website dedicated to booking mini-links. It's very convenient, mainly for the passengers of mini three links.

The round-trip package is 13-14

The picture above shows "Hello Taiwan Province" official website, which is very convenient. Just book the ticket according to the prompt.

We set off on February 4th, and set off from Wutong Pier by boat at 15: p.m.. I wanted to spend more time in Kinmen, so I bought a boat ticket at three o'clock. In fact, there is no need to be so early at all. You can take a boat at five o'clock in the afternoon and get to Kinmen in half an hour.

When you arrive at Kinmen, report to the airline, and then take a bus to the airport not far away to go through the formalities and fly to Kaohsiung. In the process of traveling, I hate going back, so this trip is from Kaohsiung to Taipei.

On February 4th, I arrived in Kaohsiung at eight o'clock in the evening.

Transportation expenses for entering Taiwan: 275 [Note: two people, one person is 1325] III. About the necessary artifacts for playing in Taiwan Province

Wi-Fi artifacts

In Taiwan Province Island, it is very convenient to rent a Wi-Fi artifact. You don't need to buy a phone card. This Wi-Fi artifact can have a signal anywhere on the island. The whole island can connect Wi-Fi at any time, and the network speed is very fast. Watching videos is OK. Charging usually takes eight hours, even ten mobile phones.

It is not recommended to make a reservation on Qunar and Taobao. You have to pick it up yourself and pay a deposit, which is troublesome.

download the APP "Taiwan Province's Raiders", where you can make an appointment. I didn't have an appointment, so I rented Wi-Fi in the mall inside.

you can also directly download the "Taiwan Province Easy Purchase" app, report the flight itinerary, and get the Wi-Fi artifact at the appropriate airport. We pick it up at Kaohsiung Airport and return it at Songshan Airport, without paying a deposit, for a total of * * * nine days, 9.9

At this point, we have to feel the word "trust". I'm worried. Aren't they afraid that the passengers won't return it? Or something else happens, like throwing it away. But from another angle, if you don't have the Wi-Fi artifact, there will be no network, so you should cherish it. What's more, it's useless to take this thing back to the mainland. In the final analysis, it's still a question of trust.

Wi-Fi is in great need in Taiwan Province. I don't know when it will be available in mainland China, and wherever I go, there will be Wi-Fi everywhere.

Cost of renting Wi-Fi***: 8 [9.9 a day, using up 9 yuan coupons]

MRT card

Kaohsiung mainly used MRT card, and bought it at the airport convenience store. Here, I want to explain that the MRT card and easycard are so powerful that they can be used all over the island and can be swiped by convenience stores and buses. Kaohsiung is the MRT and Taipei is easycard, but it doesn't affect the use. 1 Taiwan dollars each, recharged at the convenience store.

Cost: NT$ 1, [I bought two tickets, that is, RMB 2]

It is convenient to exchange NT$

Taiwan Province convenience store can send express delivery or collect express delivery. You can buy movie tickets and train tickets, including withdrawing money. We exchanged 1, Taiwan dollars, that is, 2, yuan, in the mainland before we set off. Notes:

1. Personally, it is not worthwhile to buy a phone card, and it will never last long. With Wi-Fi, you can basically get everything done

2. I personally don't recommend booking tickets for Taiwan Province Island in advance. It's not too late to plan your itinerary and buy them at a local place. 4. About accommodation, this is the big head

Kaohsiung accommodation

When we went, it happened to be the Spring Festival, and the accommodation fee went up. In order to save the cost of accommodation, I started planning two weeks in advance.

There is a "big fish net" that is doing well, mainly for Asian travel routes. Accommodation in Kaohsiung is mainly booked above. After staying in Kaohsiung for one night, I went to Kenting.

The place is the landmark building 85 in Kaohsiung, which is easy to find and convenient. The room was nice, and there was an atrium. It was a quiet night.

The accommodation cost in Kaohsiung is 16RMB［ [note: coupons are used, which is a little cheaper]

When Kenting stayed, it was New Year's Eve, and he couldn't find a cheap hotel with a Ctrip gift card, so he booked a homestay on it: it cost 586

Hualien stayed

Hualien stayed mainly with Airbnb, which happened to be a local family. The house is also beautifully cleaned up, and the landlord is a local aborigine, who is very nice. Take us to the station when we leave. Snacks and tea at home are also eaten casually.

warm reminder: if you are a fellow traveler, you must use coupons when using Airbnb for the first time. This will save 2 yuan. It's a good deal. Airbnb is very suitable for overseas use, but it is difficult to find suitable accommodation if the itinerary is determined in advance.

two nights' expenses: 547

Taipei accommodation

Taipei accommodation also uses Airbnb. For three nights, I used coupons, which reduced more than 2 yuan. The cost for three nights is 687RMB. Accommodation in Taipei is a homestay, which is also very convenient. The landlord came to meet us at the subway station without being disturbed, which is a very comfortable place.

But there are too many motorcycles in Taipei. It's so noisy. It's all the sound of motorcycles.

as for Airbnb, my personal suggestion: it's quite a trial in Taiwan Province. Moreover, if the person in the same trade doesn't have an account, if you invite him to register, you can reduce the room rate by more than 2 yuan, and it is really reduced. Contact by email is somewhat uncomfortable, but I can't help it. It is best to add the landlord's WeChat for easy contact. If you are lucky, you will live in a local home, look at the evaluation and judge a person.

In Taiwan Province, it is more suitable for four people to play. There are many rooms for four people, and the price difference is good compared with that of a double room. And the conditions are good. Under normal circumstances, when it's not Chinese New Year, a person is only a few tens of dollars, which is very cost-effective.

I'd like to remind you again and again, don't use Ctrip, it's too troublesome, and it's a overlord clause, so you can't return it. We went during the Spring Festival, and there was an earthquake in Kaohsiung, so many friends had to change their itinerary, and Ctrip didn't give a refund. It's really a bit dark, and the user experience is too bad, so it needs to be confirmed repeatedly. If it weren't for the Ctrip gift card, I really wouldn't use it.

at the same time, you can also use booking or agoda for accommodation in Taiwan Province, depending on your personal convenience. You can see more, and you will find a comfortable homestay or local home.

The total cost of staying in Taiwan Province for eight nights is * * *: 198 [The gift card was issued by the company before] V. Regarding the itinerary

It is not recommended to go to Taiwan Province alone, but it is better to make an appointment with a companion, which can also save a lot in accommodation. I hate going back, so this trip is from Kaohsiung, Taipei and the east coast.

Route: Kaohsiung-Kenting-Hualien-Taipei

There are special buses from Kaohsiung to Kenting. Take the subway to high-speed railway station and buy a ticket for Kenting Express. The cost for two people is NT$ 766 [155 RMB]

From Kenting to Hualien, it is a chartered one-day tour, and you can see the scenery along the way. The price is 44. I booked it with a gift card on Ctrip. I didn't know until I went there that the price was high.

It's also a one-day tour from Hualien to Taipei. Take Suhua Highway, and the price is 66 [Note: individuals are not advised to take a bus from Hualien to Taipei, which is not very safe. It's better to take a train, which is faster and safer]

So the overall urban transportation cost is 1866RMB［ [Note: the total cost of two people]

Note: Taiwan Province. But the natural scenery on the east coast is more beautiful. So this time, I chose the east coastline turnover. There are many interesting places in Taiwan Province, which are worth visiting many times.

It is not recommended to take the train from Hualien to Taipei. Although the Suhua Highway is beautiful, it is still a bit dangerous. And if you stay too long, you will get carsick. In addition, don't worry about not getting a train ticket, just buy a ticket at Hualien Railway Station. In two hours, we will arrive in Taipei. If it's a bus, it's a day's walk and it's not very safe.

There was no way to get from Kenting to Hualien, so I chose a chartered one-day tour, mainly to see the sea.

In fact, Taiwan Province is suitable for many times, and one time is never enough. There are also some local aboriginal villages. On the high mountains, if you go to play, you will definitely have a different flavor. Vi. About the city attractions

About Kaohsiung

Kaohsiung mainly went to the night market and the dome of light. I only stayed in Kaohsiung for one night, but I didn't catch a cold about the city, so I went to the famous Liuhe night market.

Kenting is my personal favorite place, where the sea is so beautiful. How to play in Kenting, rent an electric car and gallop around the coastline. The sea breeze is wanton, and the sea water is too beautiful to look like. Only two people can understand the meaning of walking.

What impressed me most about Kenting was Longpan Prairie. At your feet is the choppy Pacific Ocean. The wind makes you unable to stand. Facing the vast Pacific Ocean, you are barking loudly, and your mood is very comfortable.

if you rent an electric car, you'd better choose one that can be rented for 24 hours, which is very cost-effective. We rented it for a day, went to the East Line in the afternoon, and went to the East Line the next morning. * * * It costs NT$ 8 [that is, 16 RMB]

I won't go into details about the scenic spots here. There have been travel notes for various scenic spots before

About Hualien

Hualien is a place where I can't get enough of it. Among these cities, Hualien is the favorite, with good climate and beautiful scenery. Hualien, much like a small European city, is small but comfortable.

Qixingtan, Taroko Pavilion, Qingshui Cliff, Songyuan Villa and Ziqiang Night Market, or simply walking on the street, are also very pleasant.

The food in Ziqiang Night Market is very delicious, the taste is so good, and everything is so delicious. If I have the chance to go to Taiwan Province again, I will definitely choose Hualien and stay there for five or six days, even if I am in a daze. The air in Hualien is very good, and my skin is so poor that my skin has returned to its best state there.

For the travel notes of Hualien scenic spots, please check "Hualien, I want to be near again in this life"

Jiufen and Taipei, which I don't like very much. There are too many people to help. Taipei has reserved three nights, mainly for shopping. In fact, in the end, I bought more masks.

Jiufen is famous mainly for Miyazaki Hayao's films. Personally, I would like to have a quick look.

Places to play in Taipei are Yangming Mountain, the National Palace Museum in Taipei and Beitou Hot Springs.

Yesterday, someone asked me if I was suitable for going out to play. Of course I am. If you get lost
