Taichung is in west central Taiwan and, although its an industrial city, I found it very artsy as well. The (tiny) rainbow village was a colorful attraction, as well as Anime Street, on which I knew about 10% of the characters lining the street.
First thing I saw in Taichung. 
Temples! 
Rainbow Village

Idk who these people are.

One piece! 
Yu Gi Oh? 
Cartoons!
Taichung also has really great night markets, which I appreciated because markets are my favorite places to eat.
Fengjia Night Market 
Night markets are kewl
From Taichung I took a bus to Sun Moon Lake. It’s the largest lake in Taiwan and is a very popular day trip for locals. Unfortunately, the day I went to the lake was really cloudy and rainy. I still went for a bicycle ride around the lake, and it was still pretty, but apparently other days it is absolutely stunning.
Boats. 
Pretty. 
Very pretty. 
Wind! 
Me! 
Rain can’t stop me. 
It’s a lake. 
I took an artsy pic.
