#MarchGoodPlaces2025 The new secret spot in Taichung, "Wushikeng Little Cotton Castle", has become very popular recently. It is located next to the Wushi Branch of Ziyou Elementary School in Heping District, Taichung City. It is also the most popular check-in spot~You can see Pamukkale without flying to Türkiye. Known as Taichung's Little Cotton Castle, it is actually just a special-shaped sand dam (fish ladder) that tests your photography angle and skills. Maybe it was because it felt like a pseudo trip abroad, everyone had a lot of fun taking photos. The Taichung Hakka Story House, formerly the former dormitory complex of Dongshi Public School, is a century-old Japanese-style building that is also a historical witness to the education and development of the Dongshi area. The Taichung City Government has now restored the three buildings with four units that are currently preserved, and has planned cultural salon lectures, grass-roots music markets, in-depth exhibitions and other art and cultural activities to deepen the art and cultural feast. On the way back, we had some snacks in Dongshi to make the day trip a perfect end.
