Taichung is a city in Country.

Hitchhiking out

South towards Tainan

You can catch the train to Chenggong Station (成功車站), then take either exit and make your way to any of the entrances to Highway 1 (See below for one specific option).

Note, there's a Hi-Life just to the south of Chenggong Station (成功車站) at which you can stock up. Ollie got cardboard (zh3xiang1, 紙箱) and borrowed a pen from there to make a sign.

Ollie took the south exit from Chenggong station and followed the path detailed below to a decent hitching spot at one of the entrances to Highway 1.

It looks dangerous but most cars are going pretty slow (approx. 50-60km/h) and have plenty of time to pull over in the space that's available. Ollie waited here (see image below) for 3 minutes before getting a lift to the outskirts of Tainan, where he got another lift after 2 minutes right into the city centre.
