Local Tour

Date: December 6th, 2009 (Sunday)

We have organized a local tour for the participants on December 6th, 2009 (Sunday). All participants are cordially invited to join the local tour. If you are interested in joining the tour but need to return Japan on the same day, please try to book a returning flight that departs Taipei no earlier than 3:00pm because we can only schedule one bus to the airport and it is difficult to organize the tour if the bus needs to leave for the airport too early. The detailed information is as follows:

 

We will hire two buses, indexed as bus 1 and bus 2 in the following schedule, for the local tour on December 6th (Sunday). Bus 1 goes to the Hsinchu Municipal Glass Museum in the morning and Nanjuang Township(南庄鄉) in the afternoon. Bus 2 goes to the Onsen Papawaqa Hot Spring Resort in Tai-an Township(泰安鄉) in the morning and to the airport in the afternoon. The two buses will meet at 12:00noon for guest to transfer from one bus to another bus. Depending on your preferred schedule, you can choose one of the following four combinations with the buses.

1.      Bus 1 in the morning and bus 1 in the afternoon.

2.      Bus 2 in the morning and bus 2 in the afternoon.

3.      Bus 1 in the morning and bus 2 in the afternoon.
