The venue features multiple themed areas, including a merchandise zone, a cactus section, an orchid area, and an animal zone. Free parking is also available outside the entrance for visitors arriving by car. The animal zone is a major highlight, home to various creatures such as capybaras, meerkats, and toucans. To interact closely with these animals, visitors must register at the counter for specific sessions. Each animal interaction experience costs between NT$100 and NT$200 and has a limited capacity. As the venue's core identity is an orchid garden, it showcases a wide variety of orchids and offers plants for sale. Beyond static viewing, visitors can also sign up for floral DIY workshops, such as creating hydroponic planters. It's important to note that all visitors, adults and children alike, must purchase an admission ticket. The ticket fee cannot be redeemed against any purchases within the venue, including food and beverages, animal feeding interactions, or DIY experiences, all of which require additional payment. ### 金車礁溪蘭花園 Mystery Shopper's Take Review #A must-visit family attraction for orchid lovers REVIEWED BY [ZoeL](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/ZoeL/) King Car Jiaoxi Orchid Garden features an expansive indoor plant exhibition area, showcasing a wide variety of plants like cacti and orchids. Plant and orchid enthusiasts will find plenty to explore here. Zoe specifically brought her children to interact with the animals, and while there are many to choose from, each interaction requires an additional fee, which can add up. The Yilan Capybara Farm has a large number of capybaras, and they are incredibly cute to feed and brush. The interaction time is 30 minutes, and if you run out of feed, you can purchase more hay for an additional NT$50. The dining area here is spacious, offering light meals, snacks, and freshly prepared seafood. A standout dish is the "King Car Fresh Shrimp," which is exceptionally sweet and delicious. There are also facilities for children, such as a slide and rocking horses, to help them burn off some energy. Overall, this venue is a great choice for those who enjoy orchids or other plants. However, as an Yilan Capybara Farm, many of the animal interactions require payment, making it less cost-effective compared to other options.

This park is part of the Luwa International Hotel in Yilan, but non-guests can also purchase day passes to enter, and a dedicated parking lot makes access very convenient. The park is imbued with a strong Japanese ambiance, featuring lush greenery across its spacious grounds, complemented by garden designs like small bridges, flowing streams, and a chozuya (water purification pavilion), making visitors feel as if they've been transported to Japan. Beyond the scenery, the park also offers diverse Japanese cultural experiences, including yukata rentals, matcha making, and handmade wagashi workshops. In the animal zone, in addition to capybaras, visitors can get up close and feed alpacas, llamas, sika deer, meerkats, and call ducks. The park periodically hosts check-in events that offer free hay, adding to the interactive fun for visitors. For a break, the park also has a hedgehog café where you can enjoy afternoon tea while observing hedgehogs. Various cultural experience activities can be booked in advance by phone or registered for early on the day of admission, and ticket fees can be used to offset purchases. ### 綠舞日式園區 Mystery Shopper's Take Review #Immerse yourself in Japanese charm REVIEWED BY [ZoeL](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/ZoeL/) Luwa Japanese Park is incredibly spacious, and Zoe spent almost an entire day there. Beyond the countless photo opportunities in its distinctly Japanese-themed corners, there are different activities scheduled throughout the day, making for a truly enriching experience. The farm is divided into various indoor and outdoor zones. If you're interested in DIY classes like tea ceremony or wagashi making, it's best to check the schedule online in advance, as each activity has fixed times and limited spots. You can call ahead or register on-site. Zoe and her child tried making matcha, which took about 30 minutes, and the matcha they made themselves was especially fragrant and delicious. Because of the Japanese theme, even the animal enclosures have a very Japanese aesthetic, from the tubs where the capybaras bathe to the lanterns adorned with sika deer motifs—all incredibly photogenic and adorable. Zoe believes this Yilan Capybara Farm is not just great for families, but also a fantastic outing for friends or girlfriends!

The venue is conveniently located near Luodong Sports Park, about a 20-minute drive from the Luodong interchange of the highway, with clear signposts along the country roads to guide visitors. The venue offers a spacious, dedicated parking area just a one-minute walk from the ticket booth, making it very convenient for drivers.

Xingmeng Senlin Theater boasts a rich variety of animals.

Beyond the animal interaction zones, the venue also features comprehensive leisure and entertainment facilities. These include a food and beverage area serving desserts and drinks, plus a slide and a mini-train perfect for kids to burn off energy. Additionally, there's a gift shop where you can purchase adorable capybara plushies and other souvenirs. ### 星夢森林劇場 Mystery Shopper's Take Review #A Five-Star Yilan Capybara Farm Experience REVIEWED BY [ET 小姐](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/et-%E5%B0%8F%E5%A7%90/) The animals at Xingmeng Senlin Theater all look vibrant and healthy. Your admission ticket includes a cup of leafy greens, which you can use to feed them, and staff are on hand to teach you how to pet them correctly. Some of the animals even wear adorable flower wreaths around their necks, making them extra charming. When Ms. ET visited around noon, it was the capybaras' naptime. They were scattered in various corners, either zoning out or dozing off, but they still responded slowly when people approached to feed or pet them. Staff mentioned that if you visit in the late afternoon, they're much more active, and you can hear them all chattering together—quite a noisy bunch! In addition to the animal feeding area, the venue also features a shop and a sand play area. What truly stands out is the unexpected presence of a Korean unmanned ramen shop within the park. Ms. ET believes that for a Yilan Capybara Farm, the range of facilities at Xingmeng Senlin Theater truly earns it a five-star rating.

This venue is conveniently located about a 10-minute drive from Jiaoxi Train Station and offers ample free parking. The entire park is decorated in an American Texas desert style, complete with tent wagons and cactus plants, creating a fantastic photo-op atmosphere. The venue even offers an optional add-on service for adults and children to rent Western cowboy outfits, allowing everyone to capture unique memories in every corner. The core animal area of the farm houses a variety of species, including capybaras, sheep, guinea pigs, tortoises, and meerkats. All the animals are managed in separate zones, allowing visitors to safely interact and feed them up close, enjoying the fun of connecting with nature. In addition to the animal interaction zones, the park also features entertainment facilities like a children's ball pit and claw machines, plus a dining area selling burgers and drinks. Tickets can be purchased through an automatic vending machine, and the fee includes a portion of feed and a souvenir. ### 回巢 Homing Mystery Shopper's Take Review #Become a cowboy and interact with capybaras REVIEWED BY [ZoeL](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/ZoeL/) The moment Zoe and her children entered the venue, they were immersed in a distinctive Wild West atmosphere. While the overall family park isn't huge, every corner is thoughtfully designed, making it a great spot for photos. The most anticipated part of the visit was the animal feeding experience. In addition to separate animal zones, there's a disinfection area at the entrance with alcohol mats for shoe soles. Staff members are very thorough in their explanations, covering feeding methods and feed, which both adults and children found very informative. However, a minor incident occurred when a child was accidentally bitten by a tortoise during feeding, and the lack of immediate first aid from staff was a regrettable oversight. This Yilan Capybara Farm is completely odor-free, with staff constantly cleaning up animal waste, and all the animals are very friendly and healthy. After feeding, children can burn off energy in the ball pit while adults enjoy burgers nearby, making this a fantastic choice for a family farm experience in Yilan.

They seem completely oblivious, and Ms. ET found them absolutely adorable. The venue is divided into three areas: the first area features alpacas, sika deer, ponies, and tortoises; the second area is for capybaras; and the third area houses tortoises and kangaroos. The animal enclosures are kept very clean, with staff regularly following the animals to clean up droppings, thoughtfully preventing visitors from stepping in them.
