Malaysians invited to experience Taiwan´s fruit season

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 18 (Bernama) -- Malaysians are among foreign tourists invited to experience the fun of fruit picking activity launched by Taiwan’s Council of Agriculture (COA) for the state’s fruit season.

The council recently launched 170 itineraries featuring 200 farms with 36 fruits around the country to attract both domestic and foreign tourists.

Taiwan known as the ‘Kingdom of Fruit’, produces fruits all year round with papayas, guavas and pineapples available in four seasons, a statement said.

Spring to summer is the best period to taste Taiwan’s fruits especially loquats, plums, watermelons and mangos while autumn to winter is good for fruits such as grapefruits, citrus, tomatoes and strawberry.

In addition to enjoying fruit in season and at the source, tourists can take fruit as a point of departure for diving deeper into local culture and features as they experience the pinnacle of seasonal flavor over the shortest distance between farm and table.

Tourists are also able to experience gift boxes with seasonal fruits, traditional cuisine and adoption program for fruit trees that are supervised by COA. A travel guide and information website, Agri ezgo is also available to introduce Taiwan-grown fruits and related industry.

The multi-language website available in Chinese, English and Japanese provide regulations and procedures for exporting fruits products as well as brochure in Korean, Thai and Vietnamese.
