One Day Trip in Chiayi City 諸羅城內一日遊

2013年7月19日   July 19th, 2013

起了個大早，我們到有名的豆奶攤吃早餐去！

很幸運地店裡剛好有座位，我們馬上就坐下開始點餐。

饅頭肉鬆蛋和一杯豆漿，真是超滿足的！難怪外面總是大排長龍啊！

Waking up early in the morning, we decided to have our breakfast in the famous "Chiayi Soy Milk House". Fortunately, there were still some seats, and then we found ourselves one and ordered the foods. A steamed bun with egg and meat floss plus a glass of soy milk just made our day; we guessed that must be the reason why there are always people waiting outside.

 

吃完早餐後，我們到了蘭井街上的早市晃晃。

說到蘭井街就不得不提這個特殊的命名由來，

在這條街裡有一口在荷據時代時荷蘭人所造的井，因此這條街才被稱為蘭井街。

After finishing our breakfast, we roamed around the market in Lanjing Street. There was a special story about it. Back in 1635, there was a well built by Dutch, and the Chinese pronunciation of Holland is "he lan", and the well is "jing". Therefore, this street was named: "Lanjing Street".

 

雖然是一大早，市場內卻充滿了人！

這個熱鬧的市場花了我們好久的時間才走完，裡面可以說是什麼都有，

就連古早味的糖果餅乾和叭噗冰淇淋車，都可以在裡面找到喔！想要體驗傳統市場的朋友們可以來這裡走走！

Although it was early in the morning, it was full of people in the market.

We literally spent several hours to visit every corner of it.

You can find traditional snacks everywhere.

If you enjoy walking in the market, you should come and visit!

市場之內還有著一間三級古蹟的城隍廟，有著古老歷史的廟宇，很值得一看！

There was also the historical Chiayi Cheng-Huang Temple next to the market; it's worth to visit.

接下來，我們到了嘉義公園來晃晃，原本以為就只是個普通的公園，

實地逛過之後發現裡面有著許多嘉義重要的文化資產。例如史蹟資料館及射日塔。

Next, we went to visit Chiayi Park. Initially, we thought it was just an ordinary park, but after going deeply inside we found that there were lots of cultural heritages in there; for example, Chiayi City Historical Archive Museum and Sun-Shooting Tower.

史蹟資料館的外觀是一棟古色古香的日式建築，

整棟都是以珍貴的檜木建成，

裡頭紀錄了嘉義市從日治時期到民國之後的歷史，

如果想要多了解嘉義，不妨來這裡走一趟。

Chiayi City Historical Archive Museum is an ancient Japanese-style buiding construted with Chinese junipers. There were many record of history about Chiayi from period of Japanese colony and after. If you are interested to know more about Chiayi, this place is a perfect choice.

再往公園內走，我們來到了射日塔。

射日塔的外觀是以阿里山神木的造型建成，高達１２樓堪稱全嘉義市最高的觀景台。

而「射日塔」這個名字則是來自於原住民的射日傳說。

只需要門票５０元就可以進去塔內參觀了，在１２樓往外看，美景盡收眼底，絕對值得來參觀！

Walking further at the park, we arrived at the 12-floored building: the Sun-Shooting Tower.

The shape of it was based on the Alishan divine tree and it is also the highest view platform in Chiayi city. Additionally, its name came from the legend of natives of Taiwan.

今天的最後一站是有名的蘭潭，

一進入蘭潭風景區，就看到左手邊美麗的潭景，

我們騎著腳踏車沿著環潭公路繞了蘭潭一週，全長三公里多，

雖然路途中我們就累了，但是我們還是撐到終點。

喜歡運動或散心的人可以來這裡走走，但是要記得防曬和補充水分！

Today's last spot was Holland Lake. This lake was surrounded by green plantations.

We rode our bikes along the lake which was more than 3km. Even though we were exhausted right at the middle of the road, we still made it to the end. For people who are into exercising, we highly recommend this spot, but don't forget to apply sunscreen and drink more water!

 

結束今天的旅程後，我們又多了解嘉義一點，也對台灣多認識一些。

After today's trip, we got to know more about Chiayi and Taiwan.
