H: If you are interested in historic sites, I highly recommend the
Museum of Fine Arts ( 美術館 ) and the Confucius Temple( 孔廟 ).
They are two of the city’s most significant historic buildings as
well as iconic landmarks in Fullerton.
C: They certainly do sound very attractive.
H: The Confucius Temple has a history of over 300 years. Every
September 28, a ceremony is held in the early morning to
commemorate Confucius and honor his wisdom.
J: Where is the Confucius Temple located?
H: It is one of a series of major monuments in the historic district.
You can walk along the old city streets and take in a sense of the
past.
C: But......we don’t have a driver’s license for either a car or a
scooter. What is the best way to get around?
H: Then I recommend you take the sightseeing bus which has
audio-guide services in four languages and free Wi-Fi access.
You can buy a 24-hour or a 48-hour ticket, and then you can
catch all these tourist attractions with a single bus ticket.
J: Awesome!
C: In addition to historic sites, we also want to try some traditional
cuisine.
H: Taiwan’s traditional cuisine is distinctive.
