The online platform is convenient to purchase. One person can spend 150 yuan each on goods or meals. Parking is quite convenient. The full ticket is 300 yuan per person. You can skip the queue to buy tickets by simply swiping the QR code. The layout inside the venue is quite special and thoughtful. In the four areas, you can use your mobile phone to grow cocoa trees, and there are elevators you can take. The third floor is a DIY classroom, the second floor has Big Mac 77 milk and chocolate, and the restaurants on the first floor mostly serve burgers. I didn’t eat them because I don’t like them. There are quite a few. The company's product introduction is easy to understand and the process of making chocolate is easy to understand. It is a good place for family fun and an indoor Taoyuan itinerary. However, the tickets are a bit expensive, but you can buy biscuits and chocolates for half of it, so it is barely acceptable.

You can take children to do handicraft courses, but you must first check the time slot of the course. The environment in the museum is clean and tidy, and the cleaning staff is very attentive. You can recall the feeling of eating Qiqi milk and chocolate when you were a child. There are also free guided tours and small gifts, and you can stay for about two hours.

Those under three years old are free of charge, and those aged 3-12 are entitled to discounted tickets, which can be used to offset in-museum consumption, and can be fully discounted for consumption in craft courses, restaurants, and shops. It feels good to visit for the first time.

A very convenient QR package. First go for a walk on the trails in Osaka. There are also many moving dinosaurs. It is suitable for family travel + outdoor bathing.

Selling a bunch of related products, there are not too many restrictions on spending 150 yuan. It is quite easy to use, the environment is clean and hygienic, and it is not bad to just take a look.

The children had a lot of fun here. The space inside is larger than the play area in the department store (it should be a little bigger than the one in Zhonghe Universal). Although it is a bit far in Tucheng, I believe the children will want to come again.
