Hello, it's me again toniagurl, hoping everyone is doing great today. For todays blog I would like to share my snow mountain adventure.
Winter had come, my friends decided to have an adventure in a snow mountain in Nantou, Taiwan. It is a popular destination in central Taiwan especially during winter season. The peak's name is Mt. Hehuan known as Joy Mountain, the elevation is about 3, 416 meter-high or 11,207 ft. Snow is rare in Taiwan but in Hehuan is one of the places that have high probability to snow during winter months.
Me and my friends renting a car so we can stop anytime along the way. The view was really nice but was pretty cold. Amazing views along the way. The mountain, the trees was all covered with an ice. We stopover in a certain cafe to have snacks and sip hot beverage to ease the cold we felt. We were bit disappointed because we didn't really reach the peak, perhaps were just in the midst of our destination. But still it was really nice experience. Though the mountain road is quite narrow but still considered as dangerous and scary, allowing one vehicle to pass at a time. Not only tourists visit this mountain but also locals want to climb just to see the snow.
So, in a travel we cannot expect that all happenings are great to remember, we had also bad experience. We're being stuck in a very long traffic jam; the road was so slippery. Few car accidents happened along the way; we've reached in the mountain almost evening, the driver said we had so stop, anyway were now in the middle, we will not take a risk maybe worst will happen if we continue just to reach the peak. So, we decided to stop, and it was already dark, what we did we use the light of the car so we can take photos, the photos were not that great but still a memorable experience.
Tips if you go snow mountain:
- Always check the weather forecast before you go.
- Dress in layers, wear gloves and waterproof outerwear
- Bring plenty of water and snacks
4.Don't hesitate to turn back if the situation is dangerous, there's always a second time - Have fun and be safe

Winter season brings beauty to every country. I never understood why people love winter so much. Winter season is a historical thing, seeing beauty in the eyes every day also creates a great desire to travel. This place looks great and its beauty has increased several times due to snowfall. Your place is very beautiful, but the atmosphere here seems to be cold. What kind of cold are you feeling in this place?
The cold here is very intense, it's just not a chill,it is bone-deep freeze. I can feel the cold penetrating my layers.
That's why I say, the place seems like that to me. What is the weather or winter temperature here?
Have a nice trip my brother
Thank you brother..
You're welcome, friend.
