As the romantic Western Valentine’s Day draws near, aside from carefully preparing a thoughtful gift for your partner, the following five romantic date ideas will save you from the dilemma of where to take your loved one — and guarantee an unforgettable, memory-filled Valentine’s Day for both of you.

1.Soaking in Hot Springs
 
Soaking in a hot spring is definitely the best choice during these cold winter days. Taking your significant other to a romantic, atmospheric hot spring resort for Valentine’s Day allows you to enjoy some quality time together. Especially at hot spring hotels with private open-air baths, no matter how cold it is outside, snuggling in each other’s arms while immersed in warm spring water creates a wonderfully romantic experience. The Laurelhurst Hotel in Chihpen, Taitung, is highly praised by travelers for its naturally excellent spring water quality and a setting full of charm.

2.A Romantic Dinner
 
Having a big meal during a holiday isn’t anything new, but choosing the right restaurant and highlighting its unique features still takes some effort. Aside from selecting a place based on your partner’s favorite cuisine, it’s also important to pick a scenic restaurant with great views or a high-end venue with a romantic atmosphere. Letting the surroundings complement the food is definitely a huge plus for a date. Xiangxiang Buffet in Xinyi District, for example, not only offers a diverse selection of premium ingredients, but also boasts an exceptional nighttime view as a major highlight.

3.Cherry Blossom Viewing
 
The date of the Western Valentine’s Day happens to overlap with the cherry blossom season, and there are blooming cherry blossoms all over Taiwan — perfect for picnics, walks, or photoshoots. Nowadays, many cherry blossom spots also offer night views of the blossoms. The Happy Night Cherry Blossoms in Neihu have recently become an extremely popular night-viewing destination. After enjoying a romantic candlelit dinner, taking a stroll under the beautiful cherry blossom trees is definitely a top choice for a Valentine’s Day date.

4.Watching Fireworks
 
Fireworks bursting beautifully in the night sky are a symbol of romance. Snuggling up with your partner to watch a magnificent fireworks display is the perfect way to conclude Valentine’s Day, creating deeply memorable and wonderful moments together. The 15-day fireworks show at Fo Guang Shan in Kaohsiung coincides with Valentine’s Day, offering couples who can’t decide where to go a fantastic dating option.
