Everyone usually goes to the north of taiwan where Taipei city lies. However, I would like to recommend Southern Taiwan which includes Kaoshiung, Chiayi, Tainan and Pintung. In addition, I want to highly recommend Ren Sheng Holiday Resort is located in the middle of the Alishan Scenic Area. The resort has wooden cabins which house groups of between 2-18 travellers. I really enjoyed my stay there. I loved the scenic open-air observatory, where you can enjoy a cup of unique forest coffee during the day, or gaze at the stars at night. It is also just a short drive away from Rueili and Taiping Scenic Areas.

Central taiwan for culture and nature scenes
Central Taiwan has many National parks and scenic area. The most famous being the Sun Moon Lake Scenic Area in the Nantou County, where the Sun Moon Lake is located.

Kaoshiung city's Lover River is the lovers hideout!
If you are travelling with your loved one, do take a cruise down Kaoshiung City's Lover River or a leisurely bike ride at Cijin's ocean park. The local seafood there is really good too!! You could visit Chiayi County - Fencihu Scenic Area is really beautiful and this county boasts a cool spring weather all year round!
Kenting National park is not to be missed if you enjoy sea sports like surfing and water-skiing.

'Ensure' your future with your loved one with the Husband and wife tree!
There is another hotel which I would like to recommend in the area is, Mho Dar Pozana. It is located in the midst of the mountain peaks near the Alishan scenic area. Rooms for between two to eight people, and is surrounded by picturesque gardens and lush forests, making it ideal for weary urbanites looking for a fuss-free getaway. A few must visits are Fushan Historic Trail, Husband and Wife tree, Dinghu nature park and Fencihu.
