In Taiwan Leisure Farms, pounding sticky rice is an enjoyable Do-It-Yourself recreational activity for tourists. We have seen a group of Singaporean tourists enjoying pounding sticky rice at Long Yun Leisure Farm of Jaden Tan in the Alishan Mountain during a trip there. After pounding, they made the same into mochi which they also enjoyed eating.

In the Philippines, pounding the Linupak might as well be developed as a farm tourist attraction. We are sure that the participants will enjoy pounding the boiled banana combined with sugar and butter (optional) and then eating the same afterward with a sprinkling of grated coconut.

We experienced such activity when members of the Philippine Horticultural Society visited the beautiful Vine Leaf Leisure Farm of Zeny Urbina in Antipolo City last December 10,2015.
