It is very easy to use for all locations. Just scan a QR code, and you will get a ticket. I used it for the ropeway first. The views are very nice and breathtaking. Be aware of the weather there as it might get cloudy and rainy on some days. Boat is using a ferry service and goes to the other two locations so you can see the temple and each side of the lake. Renting a bike was also very easy. They offered me an electrical buy if I wanted to go around the lake, but I sticked with a normal one and went around the lake anyway. It took me about 2.5 hours and a bit of effort to do so as at some parts you have to go up on a steep hill.
Very easy to use, just follow the instructions. I used electronic QR code for trip forward and back. It's very easy to navigate in the high-speed rail station, just go down and look for exit gate no. 5. My suggestion is to wait in a queue no matter when the bus is arriving as there are no reserved seats, so you might not get a seat for the first bus. My mistake was that I saw the buss is coming in 16 minutes and there were only 4 people in the line so I went to a restroom and when I came back there were 25 people in front of me and at the end I didn't get a seat and needed to wait for the another bus. They way back was also not complicated as the station is small and is a clear lane for the bus going back. Just use a QR, which you redeem on the same day as your trip when boarding the bus.

This tour was surprisingly good. It wasn't a large group, but the most important thing was that the tour guide was very professional, articulate, and attentive to every detail. He was also very considerate and helped the passengers find the best angles for photos. This was definitely the best tour guide I've ever had! Of course, the car was also spacious, comfortable, and clean. I have to give it a thumbs up!
A very beautiful mountain with lots of peace and tranquillity. Hikers must go climb Tashan, the highest peak in Alishan. It’s a tough climb, gave us a very good workout. But you must go early to enjoy the view at the top because the fog will cover most of the view in the afternoon.

Cingjing Farm is located in Ren'ai Township, Nantou County, Taiwan Province, China, at an altitude of 1,748 meters. It covers a total area of approximately 760 hectares and has an average annual temperature of approximately 16°C. Its predecessor was the public enterprise Jianqing Farm, founded by the Taiwan Veterans Affairs Council in 1961. In 1967, after Chiang Ching-kuo, then Chairman of the Council, visited, the farm was renamed to reflect the idea of "fresh air at your fingertips, and the elegant environment is like a fairyland." It is now a Taiwanese alpine tourist farm, known as the "Peach Blossom Land in the Mist." It covers animal husbandry, temperate fruit cultivation, and alpine flower cultivation, with its main crops being peaches, apples, pears, lilies, and tulips.
The scenery is stunning. A must-see in Taiwan, full of cute lambs. Buying tickets online and entering by scanning the QR code is very convenient. The trails in the scenic area are stunning.
