The Uyuni of Asia! Close and affordable♪

#SoutheastAsianConquest
Many people think, "Uyuni is beautiful on TV and social media, but it's far away." ⁡
⁡
Wouldn't it be nice to experience it a little closer? 😄⁡
⁡
This photo was taken in the windy winter, but it would be more visible outside of winter 🎶⁡
⁡
This is Gaomei Wetlands in Taichung, central Taiwan. Taipei is the most famous place in Taiwan⁡
⁡
There are many tourist spots in Taichung, so if you're in a nearby foreign country, pro-Japan, and the food is delicious, it's a great candidate for a trip🥰⁡
⁡
⁡
There are windmills here, so on the day I went in January, I was on my way there⁡
⁡
There were places where the wind was so strong that I couldn't open my eyes, and the lid of my camera flew off while I was changing the lens😂⁡
⁡
⁡
I was excited while walking along the long, well-maintained pier⁡
You can get off at the end of the pier and into the sea.⁡
⁡
Many locals got off barefoot, but just think about it💦⁡
⁡
If you go into the sea barefoot in the middle of winter when you're wearing such thick clothes and the wind is strong, your body temperature will drop in an instant.⁡
⁡
Screams of "Aaah, it's cold!!" came from all over the place. ⁡
I bought rain shoes (about 10cm above the ankle) to go here❢⁡
⁡
I dressed warmly and enjoyed the change in the color of the sky and sea until and after sunset😊⁡
⁡
If you go to the very back where there are no people, you are less affected by the wind and you can see the reflection💓Ahh, that was good🥰⁡
⁡
I was able to go to another place I wanted to go. ⁡

⁡
📍Gaomei Wetlands Access⁡
Take the Taiwan Railway Western Main Line Sea Line Local Train (Regular) from Taichung Station and get off at Qingshui. Approximately 50 minutes. 45 NTD. ⁡
Go along the road in front of the station, and from Family Mart, a 2-minute walk away, take Giant Transportation Bus 178 or 179 and get off at Gaomei Wetlands. Approximately 30 minutes. 21 NTD. ⁡
There is also another way to get there by combining a bus and a rental bicycle.

⁡Please double check when you go!

It's a place where you'll be at a loss if there are any changes, so please make sure to check the traffic information❢⁡
⁡
The return trip on weekends seems to be very crowded. ⁡
⁡
📝When making plans, be sure to check the sunset and low tide times⚠⁡
⁡
☀☔🌬If you can choose a day a little in advance, check the wind strength and weather as well!! ⁡
⁡
November-February is windy and the water level rises⁡
If possible, March-October is recommended. ⁡
