Japan’s Hidden Gems, Photography Tips, Skiing Techniques – 12 Free Travel Expert Lectures

Travel can enrich our lives. Come listen to travel experts share secret destinations and insider tips to make your trips more enjoyable and fulfilling. According to statistics from the Ministry of Transportation, the number of outbound travelers from Taiwan continues to rise, with a total of 14 million trips abroad last year alone. To celebrate the peak travel season at year-end, the trendy and innovative 3C tech mall, San Chung Life Plaza, is launching the “Travel’s Light Luxury Era” campaign from December 29 to January 25. The event invites the public to attend travel expert lectures, enter to win travel vouchers, and shop for top travel gear. It aims to help travelers during the New Year and winter vacation period plan their perfect holiday through this special campaign.

The highlight of the “Travel’s Light Luxury Era” is the free weekly Saturday and Sunday travel expert lectures. Twelve renowned travel experts have been invited, including Japanese design specialist Tōru Gō, urban explorer Shuibei Zi, and million-ski-trip reporter Nata Xia, who will cover three major themes: Japanese design & hidden gems, snowy ski adventures, and Olympus travel photography. Throughout the campaign, visitors can also participate in a travel map stamp-collecting promotion across all floors. Collect five stamps to enter and win great prizes such as a NT$10,000 travel voucher for the 2018 Fuji Mountain tour by Lion Travel, or a Titanium Edition Sony MP-CL1A Pocket Projector.

As a popular tourist destination, San Chung Life Plaza is also considered a top spot for international visitors to purchase and experience 3C products. Even TLC Travel & Living Channel’s Taiwan travel programs have specially visited for filming. For this reason, San Chung has specially introduced an exclusive offer on Taipei’s most popular double-decker sightseeing bus during the “Travel’s Light Luxury Era.” From January 18 to 21, every day from 11:00 to 20:00, there will be a “Buy One Get One Free” deal on 4-hour bus tickets, available for just 10 minutes at a time and limited to 30 groups per session. Don’t worry if you miss out—San Chung members enjoy exclusive discounts, and throughout the entire “Travel’s Light Luxury Era” campaign (December 29 to March 31), single-day bus tickets are available at an 20% discount when purchased onboard.
