And today was the day we head out to Chiayi 嘉义.
We checked out from the hotel and left our big luggages with them.
Then we took our small luggages and took the train to Kaoshiung Station (高雄车站).
We transferred to take the TRA.

After about 2 hours, we finally arrived into Chiayi 嘉义.
 |
| And we finally arrived at ChiaYi |
And our first things first was to drop off our luggage. We walked around for a bit and got a little lost, then we found a cab to take us to the hotel.

And we were hungry so we headed out for lunch!!! The lunch place was about 5 mins walk from our hotel. We went to 慶昇小館 because research shows that they have award winning fried rice!!!

After lunch, we wanted to find a cab to take us to the nearby tourist attractions but we were unable to flag on the streets. So we decided to head back to the hotel and ask the hotel to help us to book a half day cab to take us around.
The first stop he brought us to was Taipeng Suspension Bridge.

Once you exit the bridge, you will have to climb a flight of stairs down to return to the Car Park area. I think because of the altitude we were at, the temperature was nice and cool. A cardigan would be good for this spot.

Then he drove us down to the Chiayi main city area. The journey took about an hour.

And we walked opposite to the Hinoki Village. It is a cultural village.

We walked around, had some dessert before we headed off to our last tourist spot - Song of the Forest.

And that was the end of our 4 hours tour and we were dropped off at our hotel where we got to check in.

After we dropped off our luggages, we headed out for dinner. We decided that we were not going to miss the signature Turkey Rice since we are in Chiayi. And we walked to the one near our hotel and recommended by our driver.
 |
| Our dinner place - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! |
 |
| Look at how big the turkey is |

We are still missing the taste as we think about it. The dinner place was just 600m walk from the Wenhua Night Market (文化夜市) so we headed over for some shopping.
And we headed back to the hotel to rest. Did we mention that the Night Market was just a stone throw away from the hotel? Really convenient.
That was all for Day 4. We rested early because we anticipated a long day tomorrow.
