She explains that in the past year there have been many typhoons and that guesthouses have proliferated so fast that since 2004 there has been a fivefold increase in the number of rooms in the Tungshan River area. During previous Ilan Children's Festivals, guesthouses used to be full throughout the week, but this year the occupancy rate was down by half.
她指出，這一年來颱風多，加上民宿越開越多，光是冬山河附近的房間數就比 2004 年多 5 倍，因此，過去童玩節期間天天客滿的好景不再，住房率不到往年的一半。
