Mist plaza Whether you are on your way to Hehuanshan or heading back to Sun Moon Lake, Mist Plaza will make a perfect stopover, where there is a balanced mix of shops, restaurants and cafes. During the day, you will find a myriad of restaurants serving food freshly prepared on the spot such as “Urn Chicken” (a whole chicken roasted in a barrel) and Yunnan cuisine. The Starbucks store here sits at 1743.5 meters, making it the highest-elevation location of the chain in Taiwan. At Mist Plaza, most shops are closed for the night, but the almighty 7-11 is open 24/7 and ready to warm your stomach at all times. After filling your tummy nice and full, take a look at the souvenir shops, where you would find handicrafts carefully made by local aborigines. If you have some more time to spare, have a stroll around the garden near the parking lot. When the weather is fair, the fantastic views allow you to admire the rolling hills and rugged mountains against the clear blue sky. Even on rainy days, the clouds hovering over the peaks in the drizzling rain will also give a romantic touch to the experience.
Huang Fang-liang (黃芳亮) is a Taiwanese paper artist who not only explores possibilities of paper, but also creates more than fifty different products only with paper, whose creative paper company Carton King even holds over 100 patents. Carton King has a few locations in Taiwan, but the one located in the Beitun District of Taichung is the largest. Carton King is a perfect result out of the sheer popularity of these paper-made products, where snacks, hot pots, afternoon tea and set menus are served. Almost everything seen in this restaurant, from dining room sets to lampshades and pots, is made with corrugated paper – Carton King is no doubt a mind-blowing wonderland of fantasy and imagination. You will find paper-made hats and handbags in the souvenir shop as well as all kinds of creative paper artworks on display in the exhibition hall (these are things you have to see for yourself to believe). The creativity is mind-blowing, but the food is nothing special. We suggest you save your stomach for the authentic Yunnan cuisine served up around Cingjing Farm. Your guide will only bring you to the Carton King shop.
