The Siraya National Scenic Area Administration in Taiwan has unveiled its latest summer attraction: a "Grizzly Bear" themed bus service. The initiative, part of the "Grizzly Bear Leads the Way: Journey to Wonderland" event, aims to offer a delightful and healing travel experience.
South Korean cheerleader Mingo (Park Min-seo) was invited to unveil the specially decorated bus. The interior is completely adorned with the "Grizzly Bear" character, from floor to ceiling, creating an overwhelmingly cute atmosphere that Mingo described as making her "girlish heart explode."
The themed bus is designed to be the "cutest mobile photo spot of the summer." It incorporates local elements such as Guanziling hot springs, Omei duck, and the Siraya Forest Festival hot air balloon, all presented in a charming way to give passengers a taste of the Siraya National Scenic Area.
It's really too cute.
To further engage visitors, a limited-edition "Grizzly Bear magnet clip" will be given to passengers on the Guanzi-ling and Lingbo Guantian routes every weekend starting June 13, while supplies last. Mingo will also travel the Guanzi-ling line, visiting local attractions and sharing her journey through a YouTube video, which will include a special discount code for travel packages.
Beyond the themed bus, the administration has also launched a series of value-for-money travel packages for June, catering to families, friends, and solo travelers. These include a "Warm Kiln-baked Experience" package for families and a "Just Right Afternoon - Lingbo One-Day Trip" for solo travelers, offering diverse options for exploring the region.
We hope that travelers can feel the surprise and fun of the journey from the moment they board the bus.
