Impressed by Hou Changming’s frugality and approachability, Zhongtian Entertainment Channel’s new travel show “Family Adventure” airing at 8 PM on September 30, invites him to take his wife Zeng Yalan and their children on trips.

Producer Cai Wenjie said that with rising prices, everyone is looking to save where they can. International travel is too expensive, but Taiwan actually has plenty of leisure destinations — such as Guangxing Farm in Yilan, where you can build an earth oven and go clam digging, activities loved by both adults and kids. There are also spots brimming with a strong exotic vibe, allowing you to experience the world without boarding a plane.
