“mi é piaciuta la guida, il pranzo e la parte a beitou. Ci siamo goditi poco il parco fi yangminngshan perché avevamo un passeggino (e un marsupio, ma il nostro bimbo di 18 mesi pesa per lu ghi tragitti). l escursione é quindi adatta a famiglie ma con bambini che camminano anche per tratte abbastanza lunghe. c era il seggiolino nell auto, quindi perfetto. avrei forse tolto una tappa per godersi con più tempo le altre.”
