About Taichung
Taichung is a relaxed city in central Taiwan, with night markets, tea houses, striking modern architecture and mountains on its eastern doorstep.
Taichung lies on a broad plain in central Taiwan, with the central mountains rising to the east and the Taiwan Strait to the west. It is one of the island's largest cities. The Taichung Metropolitan Opera House, designed by Toyo Ito, is a curving concrete structure, and the Calligraphy Greenway is a ribbon of gardens leading through downtown. The Rainbow Village, a cluster of small houses painted in bright colours by a veteran soldier, draws visitors.
