Come to Wushulin in Houbi District, Tainan, and experience the world's slowest train

Address: No. 184, Wushulin, Houbi District, Tainan City Atmosphere/Facilities: A sugar factory was established in Wushulin, Houbi District, Tainan in 1910, becoming one of the important white sugar production bases in Taiwan. After the nearby sugarcane is harvested, it is transported here via "five-cent trucks" to be made into sugar. The "five-point train" responsible for transporting sugarcane is actually a narrow-gauge train with a track width of only half the international standard gauge. With a snail's pace of 5-10 kilometers per hour, it is known as the slowest train in the world. Now, tourists can spend NT100 to transform themselves into "white sugarcane" and slowly walk through the woods towards the sugar factory! The one-way trip takes about 20 minutes. The train will stop at the terminal for a few minutes to complete the turn and then let passengers get on the train for the return journey. The total round trip of the five-minute car experience is about 45 minutes. Features: Wushulin Station, which began operation at the end of 1946, is a passenger train station that travels between Xinying District and Wushulin. It has a history of more than 70 years. After experiencing the five-minute train, you can come in and visit the old relics related to the station. Remember to order a NT20 sugar factory popsicle to reminisce the taste of your childhood! Price per person: NT$100 for a five-cent ticket, NT$20 for an ice lolly Rating: 90 #Tainan #Wushulin Recreation Park #Experience the Five-Minute Car #Good Place for Parents and Children #Sugar Factory Popsicle
