I think it's delicious, a little more expensive than the average, but it's recommended by Michelin Bib Gourmand, so you can give it a try. I've eaten there three times! All are purchased via high-speed rail!

I first bought the ticket at klook and then exchanged it for a paper ticket on site. They gave me 2 bottles of 7Up Sprite. I went to see the exhibition at around 3.4 pm and there happened to be no one else in the reserved area. It was not bad~

Cheap, there are a lot of animals, but each animal is not taken care of, and there is a lot of feces in the area where the animals rest and walk.

I purchased a round-trip ferry ticket to Hongmaogang Cultural Park and a cultural tour on Klook. The cultural yacht is very comfortable, equipped with sofa seats, and there are guides in the cabin to provide explanations, allowing people to appreciate the uninterrupted busy operations of Kaohsiung Port. After landing at the Hongmao Port Cultural Park, you can also see the spectacular container ships up close. The tour guide's explanations are lively and vivid, and the content is full of historical significance. I can feel their intentions! For tourists, this is a very special travel experience!

The experience is very good, but it is recommended to wait longer between watching other shows, otherwise it will be easy to faint. There is also a commemorative photo, which is very nice.

The overall service is great, and the air-conditioning temperature problem can be solved quickly. There are also activities on Christmas Eve, which are full of sincerity. The transportation is convenient, there is McDonald's and FamilyMart downstairs, it is close to the MRT station, and you can also walk to the Pier 2 Art Zone!
