“Taiwan is a melting pot of colors, each destination possessing its own unique characteristics. It could be the tranquility of nature, the vibrancy of the city, or the emotionally rich cultural landmarks,” Ngo Kien Huy shared after his 4-day, 3-night trip to Taiwan, organized by the Taiwan Tourism Bureau in collaboration with Travellive Media Group. The trip not only provided high-end experiences but also opened up a new perspective on Taiwan – a place where modernity and tradition blend impressively.

Unlike the Taiwan depicted on screen, Ngo Kien Huy shared: "I truly experienced a very different Taiwan – peaceful, clean, and developed. Each destination offered a unique feeling, from the Jiuzu Village with its cherry blossom-lined paths to the lush green Sheep Hill. This was my first time taking photos amidst such a vibrant cherry blossom forest; it was an unforgettable experience."

A luxury journey that blends tradition and modernity.
Taiwan's springtime presents a breathtaking natural landscape. Cingjing Village, renowned for its cool climate and European-like scenery, is an ideal destination for cherry blossom viewing, visiting sheep farms, and enjoying the fresh air.
Visit Sun Moon Lake – Taiwan's largest natural lake, renowned for its dreamy beauty and as the venue for unique cultural festivals. The deep blue water reflects the sky like a silken ribbon, creating a space that is both peaceful and magnificent, making every moment here memorable. "Sun Moon Lake is also the place that impressed me the most. Cycling around the lake, both for exercise and to immerse myself in nature, is an indescribable feeling," said Ngo Kien Huy.

This journey took Ngo Kien Huy to luxurious accommodations, each with its own unique style. "Some hotels focused on relaxing experiences with mineral springs that help 'heal,' while others were located in the bustling city center for easy shopping and to feel the vibrant atmosphere," he excitedly recounted.
Beyond experiencing luxurious accommodations, the premium flights with China Airlines also left a strong impression on Ngo Kien Huy. On China Airlines' long-haul flights, passengers enjoy a diverse range of entertainment and amenities such as blankets, pillows, noise-canceling headphones, and premium utility bags from Moschino and Moroccanoil. Comfortable VIP lounges at the airport, free Wi-Fi, and punctual service contribute to a complete travel experience. Furthermore, the airline actively promotes the image of Taiwan through media campaigns and international tourism partnerships.
Authentic Taiwanese cuisine
If cuisine is the soul of travel, then Ngo Kien Huy was treated to a colorful feast of authentic Taiwanese flavors. At The Old England, he was immersed in a classic European atmosphere with elaborately decorated Western dishes, leaning towards Western cuisine with minimal spices. Meanwhile, Michelin-starred Yuen Ji offered a distinctly Taiwanese East Asian flavor, elevated by the skillful hands of the chefs. "Each dish tells its own story. In addition, Huy also enjoyed many kinds of Taiwanese specialty hot teas, which is a unique feature of this place," he shared.
Taiwan is not only famous for its street food but also boasts a sophisticated and refined high-end culinary scene. Familiar dishes like Dongpo pork, radish cakes, and bubble tea can all be enjoyed in a luxurious version at Michelin-starred restaurants.

The colorful tapestry of Taiwan through the eyes of Ngo Kien Huy.
This trip was not just a vacation, but also a source of creative inspiration for Ngo Kien Huy. "Huy learned a lot from how Taiwan develops its tourism industry, and was inspired by their modern approach to tourism services. Previously, Huy had experienced backpacking in Taiwan, but this time it was a completely different experience – luxury travel. Huy feels there are still many interesting things in Taiwan that he hasn't explored yet. The stories about music and history shared by the tour guide deeply moved Huy and made him eager to learn more on future trips," he shared.

For those undecided among countless travel destinations, Ngo Kien Huy advises: "If you want to experience a country with diverse tourism and 5-star luxury services, Taiwan is a suitable choice, from airlines and flight routes to culture, cuisine, and spiritual tourism."
