Rather lost. Things to do in Taichung?

Hi,

I did quite some search but finds that Taichung seems to have not much of an attractive except for a stopover for people who wish to go to Sun Moon Lake.

I am going to SML from Alishan and then bus from SML to Taichung for 2 full days and 2 nights. I%26#39;m really uncertain that there are enough activities to keep me occupied for 2 full days and 2 nights in Taichung.

I only know about the night market but how about my 2nd night? :P

How about hot spring? Any hotspring I can go? Any convenient location? I%26#39;m actually quite lost on the map. Dakeng (hot spring) seems to be on the right of the map and don%26#39;t look accessible to me. eng.taiwan.net.tw/lan/Cht/map/ShowMap.asp鈥?/a>

I%26#39;m not a clubbing person, love shopping (but will have 2 man in my travelling gp), not very cultural/history person(but don%26#39;t mind going to Temples). But I guess I can%26#39;t be visiting Temples all day. I was only thinking of Wanhe Temple.

Any advise would be greatly appreciated! :D

The Formosan Aboriginal Theme Park (an amusement park w/ a ';hanging'; roller coaster and TW%26#39;s highest freefall ride) is near Sun Moon Lake. (There are plans for a gondola connecting the two spots.)

Hi there,

We intend to spend a day trip to SML via unlimited ride and back to Taichung/Nantou for overnight. Our onwards journey, the next morning via bus to Chiayi~Alishan.
