Carol & Chris: Welcome to Kaohsiung, Taiwan this week in March of 2023 after two or three hours on a remarkable“Bullet Train” rides from Taipei to Kaohshiung, Taiwan in 2023❤❤❤
@@giannishen ok I've looked it up online, I was just trying to get confirmation from people who have recently been there, & what their experience was thx.
greetings from Dallas, TX. We will go on a trip to Japan and Taiwan in May. However, the trip in Taiwan will be more like in the mountains then in the cities. Hot springs and all that natural beauties......
You two have become our favorite You Tubers. I was born American, my wife was Mexican (when we met) and we will have been married for (50) years this Novenber. Since the years have slowed us down, we are so happy to now travel the world with such an adorable couple, who share a resemblance to how our years have passed together❤ This is the name of the statue at LotusPond, Kaohsiung. (Xuan-tian-shang-di) Taoist God.
Try it bro, you can ride the highest speed train for the first time in Southeast Asia. The highest speed is 350 kilometers per hour, the Indonesian fast train Jakarta - Bandung, the newest, most sophisticated in Southeast Asia, the first,... the way to the beautiful and comfortable and beautiful and cool and cool city of Bandung, thank you sis and bro.......
Just found the channel recently and loving the Taiwan videos. 2017 since my last trip to Taiwan so can't wait to return in June for one month. What a fantastic country it is and i can tell you guys think so too. Safe travels
I am planning to fly into Taipei and take a bullet train to Kaohsiung. What is the name of bullet train station and what hotel should I stay which is close Taipei airport and train station ?

Finally a vlogger who went to kaohsiung! My wife is from there. If you have the time there's a little seafood island that's a super short ferry ride. Before the high speed train we had to take a 5 hour bus ride from Taipei.
How fun a bullet train. I hope to ride on one someday. It's always so nice watching your videos. You are both so mellow and informative. I love it when you share how much things cost. I feel it's very important to do so. Thank you for all your hard work. 😊
Hiya. What a great experience riding the bullet train. And tour around. Love riding a bike and taking in the views. Love watching your travels and adventures. My favorite. UA-cam couple. Your channel is so underrated. Can never understand why you are not at a million followers. My Fav tour guides around any destination. Good vibes and always informative. Happy Easter. Happy Weekend
Yeah I completely forgot about Alaska up there lol. Definitely visit Taiwan again, it’s probably the most underrated place we have been in Asia. Taipei was cool but once you visit the other areas you see that pretty much everywhere else is much more interesting

Thank you for visiting my hometown! This makes me very very homesick haha...there used to be domestic flights between Taipei and Kaohsiung, but apparently after the bullet train was built it's far more economical and just as fast, so naturally those airlines shifted their business focus to international routes. Also, Taiwan used to be known for its world-class baseball teams that won championships in numerous international games. In fact, because they did such a good job at preventing and managing Covid entrance, they were pretty much the only place that still plays baseball games when all other countries were on lockdown. I'm glad you both look like you enjoyed Kaohsiung! ❤
Just to you know, the local professional baseball league, CPBL, opening day is this Saturday(4/1) and there will be two games in Kaohsiung the following Tuesday(4/4) and Wednesday(4/5) evening at Chengching Lake Baseball Field(澄清湖棒球場). You should defineitely go if you are a fan of baseball and the style of game is definitely unique to anywhere in the world.
Really enjoyed that guys - thanks. My wife and I are getting on a bit in years (67) and so our traveling days are becoming "limited", you guys however have moved Taiwan to the top of our travel list :-)
Yes! Kaohsiung is amazing. Your videos are making me long for another trip to Taiwan. If you are still there, definitely check out the Pier 2 area, especially at night during the weekend! Some good bullet train options in Europe, too. The rail situation in North America sucks.

Awesome aerial Chris. Hello Chris and Carol. Thank you for sharing your adventure through Taiwan via the bullet train. Beautiful, just beautiful. Have a good time and adventure. Thanks again.
Carol & Chris:Thanks you guys for this new remarkable video released today’s from Taipei,Taiwan for you guys to rides the remarkable Bullet Train to Kaohsiung,Taiwan.I wish you guys good LUCK always in great joy for more new videos to be releases from Taipei, Taiwan in March & April of 2023❤❤❤
In fact, in Taiwanese folklore, many gods come from generals or officials who made important contributions to the people of the past, and some gods come from legends,The huge statue holding the sword is called Xuantian God,Its origin is purely from the legend
Chris & Carol:I am hoping more new videos are coming up soon this week from Kaohsiung & Taipei, Taiwan in March of 2023.I really LOVE this great video released today’s in Southeast Asia 2023❤❤❤
Loving this series. You have to appreciate the beauty and cleanliness of the country. Bullet trains were awesome. I haven’t been commenting because of the spammers pretending to be you.

North America countries are earlier developed and we have older infrastructures (pioneers). The later developed countries adopt newer technologies. US is still using the British measuring system, even the UK switches to metric.
Kaohsiung is a beautiful harbor city. The recommended bike routes are along the Love river, and along the bayside with several piers. Within the bay area, you could visit some renovated warehouses like pier-2 art center and KW2(Kaohsiung warehouse 2) which are connected by Big Harbor Bridge. You could also take 5-mintue Ferry to Cijin island. On this island, you could go uphill to the lighthouse and overlook the whole Kaohsiung harbor in a spectacular way. You would enjoy watching ships passing by for a long time... Besides, you could also find nice beaches and delicious street food as well as various seafood. For transportation, you could take MRT or light rail especially. This light rail will take you travel through the bay area including above mentioned sightseeing spots, and also the city forests. Hope you enjoy stay in Taiwan.
I remember my grandma taking me on a plane between the two cities two decades ago. The high speed rail killed that domestic flight route essentially. Still need the planes to go to other smaller islands though .
Yeah, flying between Taipei and Kaohsiung just doesn’t make sense anymore, you will probably spend more time on security check on the ground than flying in the air. Exaggeration perhaps but not too far fetched.
The internet and its algorithm just showed me this video, magical coincidence. I am Manuel, from the AirBnb in Kaohsiung 😊 You have a lovely vibe in your videos, I wish you light and prosperity on your traveller journey 💝
I live in Houston (but am contemplating a move to Taiwan when I retire) and there is a push for a bullet train between Houston and Dallas. They've been talking about it for a few years, but haven't seen any real movement yet.
There used to planes...I use to travel by plane constantly for business from Taipei down to the south 20+ years ago. but after the high-speed rail was introduced ( 2007), domestic air travelers switched to HSR causing traveling by plane less viable. Anyway, You may want to go further down to Kenting National Park. Ali Mountain National Park in Cha-Yi also offers an amazing traveling experience as there are plenty of trees ranging from 1,000~3,000 years old.
In fact, Taiwan High Speed Rail offers early bird discounts and airlines additional purchase discounts. The early bird discounts are 35% off, 20% off, and 10% off respectively. Orders must be made one month in advance. Airlines additional purchase discounts are available for EVA Air, UNI Air, China Airlines, Mandarin Airlines, China Eastern Airlines, Shanghai Airlines and STARLUX international flight ticket, could enjoy a 20% discount when leaving or going to the airport within about 3 days.
Na hora que ouvi a pronúncia de Taipei eu soube que eram brasileiros! Encontrei esse vídeo através de uma pesquisa em chinês sobre idas de Taipei para Kaohsiung, e pense numa surpresa boa? Amei conhecer vocês, já me inscrevi e agora seguirei as aventuras de vocês de perto! 🎉 Obrigada por visitarem Taiwan, um pais tão incrível e que merece muito mais atenção!
So glad to see you enjoy Taiwan. Taiwan is a small country with beauiful cities and people. There used to be domestic flight in between Taipei and Kaohsiung but since the HSR is easier cheaper and convient, there's no reason to continue the flight. Can't wait to watch more videos from you!
Chris and Carol, great videos you've made! Thanks for sharing the beauty of Taiwan to the world! Keep up the good work. Yes, as what you said, Taiwan is underrated. Our government should put more efforts on promoting Taiwan. If you have time, try to go from Puli, QingJing Farm, Mt. Hehuan, to Toroko Gorge, then all the way up back to the north. You'll get to see the most breathtaking mountain views and ocean/cliff views in Taiwan. Enjoy your travels!
Try it bro, you can ride the highest speed train for the first time in Southeast Asia. The highest speed is 350 kilometers per hour, the Indonesian fast train Jakarta - Bandung, the newest, most sophisticated in Southeast Asia, the first,... the way to the beautiful and comfortable and beautiful and cool and cool city of Bandung, thank you sis and bro.......
HSR is not going through the whole island. There is a nice beach area in south called Kenting National Park, that you need to take about 1.5 ~ 2 hours bus to really reach to most south park of Taiwan. And Kenting is definitally a most famous tourist favorate like Taroko, like beach vs montain.
Did you guys see Brad Pitt ….. lol. The video is awesome….. 😊. I remembered to NOT skip the commercials 😮 ….. Looking forward to the next video…… Keep up the great work….!!!!
There used to be domestic plane from Taipei to Kaohsiung but bc the HSR is so much more convenient, I guess no one really takes it anymore so they stopped the flights. Back in the days, we would take plane from US to Taipei and then the domestic plane down to Kaohsiung.
That was nice! The ubike... is subsidised by the government, and renting is very cheap. even first half hour for free I think, after that some small fee but this fee will increase during longer use because they don't want you to keep the bicycle all day for yourself.
First of your video's I've watched. After seeing such impressive drone scenery of my 2nd home I just had to subscribe. How long are you guys staying in Taiwan?. Keep it up. Cheers Karl. Ps. I used to call Taiwan a country like you did when I first moved there. But it will upset the mainland Chinese if they hear you say that.
Hi there started to watch your videos whilst you in Taiwan and if you are still in Kaohsiung today and for a few days then you can go and watch Amei in concert. Amei is the most famous singer in Taiwan kind of canto pop crossed with metal. Look for Asmeir 😊
Actually there are flights from Taipei to Kao-hsiung daily , but I like going by train as well to view the scenery ! Thank you for making these Taiwan video, Very enjoyable 🎉!
Would be fascinating to see Penghu Taiwan 🇹🇼 a very remote undiscovered region that would be just as unique as the far southern region of Taiwan. Love seeing areas very few travel vlogers ever visit.
The tropic of cancer passes through Chiayi in Taiwan. Kaohsiung is south of that , so the weather is more tropical there than in Taipei. You probably felt it was hotter there when you stepped out of the train. The warrior statue is called Xuantian Shangdi, a Taoist god ruling the north/water. While you are there, you can also take the train to Tainan, the neighboring city in the north with many historical sites. You can also travel south to Kending to enjoy the beautiful beach. The fee for ubike is 5 NTD per half an hour in Taipei. Make sure you return it when you are done or you might end up paying a lot more. Enjoy your trip down south :-)
Try it bro, you can ride the highest speed train for the first time in Southeast Asia. The highest speed is 350 kilometers per hour, the Indonesian fast train Jakarta - Bandung, the newest, most sophisticated in Southeast Asia, the first,... the way to the beautiful and comfortable and beautiful and cool and cool city of Bandung, thank you sis and bro........
Judging from the views from the rooftop of that apartment building, your airbnb must be located in Yancheng District of Kaohsiung, my birth place. That river is called Love River, and Taiwanese are passionate about baseball, I have been to that baseball stadium many times when I was a kid. That “general” in Lotus Pond has many names but Xuanwu is probably the most well-known one. He is one of the most important Taoist deities who is in charge of the northern skies, so to simplify you can remember him as the god of the North Star. He is associated with snake and tortoise, one (collectively)of the four sacred animals in Taoism, so it’s easy to identify if any temple is dedicated to him or not.
Hi guys, you should come to Spain, you have this kind of trains almost all over the country and now there are a few different companies with low cost speed trains with prices starting 9 €, which is insane. have a great one.
In fact the HSR makes the TP-KH flight obsolete - there were such flights before, but the HSR is much cheaper and has more trains than flights everyday. So naturally the airlines no longer fly this route due to competition.
In Taiwan baseball is very popular like Japan. If you look at the little league history Taiwan has won many championships in the past although with some controversy.
This Statue in KaoHsiung is "關公" read as "Guan Gong" Gong means Male respectful , similar as " Sir" in English , he was faithful warrior in Han Dynasty.

The highest speed is 350 kilometers per hour, the Indonesian fast train Jakarta - Bandung, the newest, most sophisticated in Southeast Asia, the first,... the way to the beautiful and comfortable and beautiful and cool and cool city of Bandung, thank you sis and bro.......
HSR is not going through the whole island. There is a nice beach area in south called Kenting National Park, that you need to take about 1.5 ~ 2 hours bus to really reach to most south park of Taiwan. And Kenting is definitally a most famous tourist favorate like Taroko, like beach vs montain.
What an amazing culture 👍✌🇱🇧
Will be here in a few weeks, so watching this again! Haha, yeah, we saw the same yellow- flowered tree in Puerto Vallarta earlier this year
Welcome to Taiwan!I hope you have a nice trip!
謝謝你的影片祝福你旅程愉快👍👍👍
Did you guys see Brad Pitt ….. lol. The video is awesome….. 😊. I remembered to NOT skip the commercials 😮 ….. Looking forward to the next video…… Keep up the great work….!!!!
There used to be domestic plane from Taipei to Kaohsiung but bc the HSR is so much more convenient, I guess no one really takes it anymore so they stopped the flights. Back in the days, we would take plane from US to Taipei and then the domestic plane down to Kaohsiung.
That was nice!
The ubike... is subsidised by the government, and renting is very cheap. even first half hour for free I think, after that some small fee but this fee will increase during longer use because they don't want you to keep the bicycle all day for yourself.
First of your video's I've watched. After seeing such impressive drone scenery of my 2nd home I just had to subscribe. How long are you guys staying in Taiwan?. Keep it up. Cheers Karl. Ps. I used to call Taiwan a country like you did when I first moved there. But it will upset the mainland Chinese if they hear you say that.
please remember to go to Kenting. There are nice beaches and scenery. _from Taiwan
Many interesting places there in Taiwan.
Beautiful and very informative video thank you Chris and Carol 🥰
The t in Taoism Is pronounced as a d. 😉
Good to know!
歡迎來到台北👍😊
Hey, Taiwan. If you ever feel like popping over to Australia and showing us how to make trains work properly, we'd really appreciate it. Kthanxbye.
Hi there started to watch your videos whilst you in Taiwan and if you are still in Kaohsiung today and for a few days then you can go and watch Amei in concert. Amei is the most famous singer in Taiwan kind of canto pop crossed with metal. Look for Asmeir 😊
Actually there are flights from Taipei to Kao-hsiung daily , but I like going by train as well to view the scenery !
Thank you for making these Taiwan video, Very enjoyable 🎉!
Other people said the flights stopped many years ago because of the train, we can’t find any flights online also
Glad you are enjoying the videos 😁
@@JumpingPlaces確實停飛了,跟高鐵比起來飛機價格昂貴,時間又差不多,所以飛機停飛了
Welcome to Taiwan ❤
Would be fascinating to see Penghu Taiwan 🇹🇼 a very remote undiscovered region that would be just as unique as the far southern region of Taiwan. Love seeing areas very few travel vlogers ever visit.
Welcome to my hometown Kaohsiung!! Hope you guys enjoy it!!
Please go visiting kenting if you guys have time!!😊
The tropic of cancer passes through Chiayi in Taiwan. Kaohsiung is south of that , so the weather is more tropical there than in Taipei. You probably felt it was hotter there when you stepped out of the train. The warrior statue is called Xuantian Shangdi, a Taoist god ruling the north/water. While you are there, you can also take the train to Tainan, the neighboring city in the north with many historical sites. You can also travel south to Kending to enjoy the beautiful beach. The fee for ubike is 5 NTD per half an hour in Taipei. Make sure you return it when you are done or you might end up paying a lot more. Enjoy your trip down south :-)

Judging from the views from the rooftop of that apartment building, your airbnb must be located in Yancheng District of Kaohsiung, my birth place. That river is called Love River, and Taiwanese are passionate about baseball, I have been to that baseball stadium many times when I was a kid.
That “general” in Lotus Pond has many names but Xuanwu is probably the most well-known one. He is one of the most important Taoist deities who is in charge of the northern skies, so to simplify you can remember him as the god of the North Star. He is associated with snake and tortoise, one (collectively)of the four sacred animals in Taoism, so it’s easy to identify if any temple is dedicated to him or not.
Hi guys, you should come to Spain, you have this kind of trains almost all over the country and now there are a few different companies with low cost speed trains with prices starting 9 €, which is insane.
have a great one.
In fact the HSR makes the TP-KH flight obsolete - there were such flights before, but the HSR is much cheaper and has more trains than flights everyday. So naturally the airlines no longer fly this route due to competition.
That apartment is a score, roof top paradise
Definitely! This is the link to the place of anyone is interested abnb.me/yMAT9NITzyb
Thanks again for this nice Vlog to travel in Taiwan❤
Watching from 🇨🇦
Taiwan bullet train is a great value
In Taiwan baseball is very popular like Japan. If you look at the little league history Taiwan has won many championships in the past although with some controversy.
Very beautiful video 🌸👏
This Statue in KaoHsiung is "關公" read as "Guan Gong" Gong means Male respectful , similar as " Sir" in English , he was faithful warrior in Han Dynasty.
The pagodas are insanely beautiful structures out there. Nice one guys! ❤👍
