Taichung’s Colorful Gem🌈

🎨 Step Into a Living Canvas at Taichung’s Rainbow Village! 🌈✨

Rainbow Village is Taichung’s most vibrant hotspot, splashed in every color imaginable! This tiny neighborhood, hand-painted by “Grandpa Rainbow,” is a must for anyone looking to add a pop of joyful color to their adventure.

Stroll down the labyrinth of painted lanes—arrive early to beat the crowds and the midday sun. Start at the main entrance for that iconic mural shot, then wander deeper for quieter, quirky corners. Don’t miss the painted benches and doorways—they’re perfect for solo or group photos! The best insta-worthy angle? Snap a panoramic shot along the narrow laneway where walls, floor, and even the ceiling are covered in cheery art.

Must-do activities: Strike fun poses with whimsical painted animals, search for Grandpa Rainbow himself (he still greets visitors some mornings!), and browse the little souvenir shop for cute postcards and magnets painted in his bold signature style.

🛍️ Practical Tips: No admissions fee, but small donations or purchases in the gift shop help preserve the art. The Village is compact—30–45 mins is plenty for photos and exploring. Shade is limited, so bring a hat and water. Public transport or a short taxi from Taichung Station is easy.

⚠️ Precautions: Rainbow Village closes on Mondays. Respect the art—avoid leaning on, touching, or sitting on painted surfaces. Some corners can get crowded, so patience is key for getting a clean shot!
