i'm not an early bird person... so i take HSR to taichung, transfer to taichung train station as the bus station is just opposite the train station.(i went there because i want to leave my big luggage at the baggage counter in taichung train station and just take my smaller one to cingjing.) then take bus to Puli. switch bus there to cingjing... take note that the last bus to cingjing is 4.35pm from puli.

u need to take a 6.40am bus from taipei to cingjing if i'm not mistaken. i suggest that u go to taipei main station a day earlier to enquire about the journey so that u don't have to rush in the morning and know what to do.

when i was in cingjing, i think it's the last days of cold season, so there're fog all over the place. visibility is still ok if u take near pictures. if u're going in 2 weeks time, i think the weather is much ok..cold but not that cold. the next morning i was there, the temperature is about 4-8 degree. i think it's going to be 13-16 degree in 2 weeks time.

ok, the view is magnificent. u'll love the view, the sheeps and the little swiss garden. stop at mt hehuan awhile to see the view from mountain. it feels like u're in heaven. maybe u can see sea of clouds.

summary is, if u're not an early person, take train to taichung. although it may take time switching transport, but if u catch the bus/train on time, i think u'll reach cingjing faster than direct bus from taipei. as i said earlier, there should be a direct bus from taichung HSR station to cingjing but at 8.40am. so u need to reach taichung earlier. journey from taipei will take approx 50mins cost NT700/person one way.

Thank you for your feedback.

For some of you that would like to know abt direct bus to CingJing from Taipei, i have book my tickets to CingJing via this website
(E-Go bus)
http://www.e-go.com.tw/web2010/cht/tourbus_1.php

NTD 750/pax (for 1 way). Depart from Taipei Train Station at 6.45am, will reach CingJing abt 11.30am.

From CingJing, i have hired a cab to visit HeHuanSan - CingSui Cliff - Taroko - HuaLian ( NTD 4500 1 day trip)
I will take the Express Train back to Taipei from HuaLian.

P/s: U need to book your Express Train Tics FAST..... exactly 2 weeks in advance.

Hi,

Came back from Taiwan 2 weeks ago. Taiwan was great overall, love it =))

As for the Driver i mention above, Miss Gu古小姐 and Mr Zhen曾先生, they are both great, very friendly and careful driver. highly recommended
Due to some part of the road from CingJing to Hehuan San and Taroko is narrow and winding, the husband (Mr Zhen) was the driver as he is more familiar with the roads. Then for the second part which is the last part of Taroko to Hualien, the wife (Ms Gu) took over.
So we actually met both of them.

i hired them from CingJing Farm - HeHuan San - Taroko Gorge - Hualien

Fees : TWN 4500 perday (from 9am to 8pm)

I also would like to recommend the Minsu i stayed in CingJing Farm. The view was superb in the morning with the clouds surround the mountains !!! We woke up abt 5am in the morning to catch the view. Something that i will nv forget..... missed it so much...

The steamboat my minsu provide us for dinner was so tasty too
