This was my very first experience to Taipei! I was planned the trip to Taipei with my buddy about few months back. From flight ticket to accommodation booking and etc etc..
Well i can say it was not cheap although we were planned the trip our self, it kinda like free and easy but we did signed a land tour trip in Taipei from 4days 3 nights.
We got our 1st 4 days schedule fixed. 2 days 1 night at Wulai hot Spring hotel with water fall view! I love this place very much =)
Wulai is hot spring mountain which a hot spot for their local. It said that the hot spring there can give nice treatment for skin to gain moisture and radiant! Girls will like this very much. Me and my buddy decided to take the private hot spring room as we are not that kind of "open" person. For the public hot spring which claim to have a better views with condition that you have to take off all your wearing before you can enjoy it... =O
On the 3rd day, our tour guide brought us to a mountain village called "Jiu Fen" which was a gold mine long ago. It was famous with its nice scenery and the old street. However, we had really came at the wrong season which raining all day, so we couldn't really enjoyed the nice scenery and crowded everywhere in the old street kinda spoiled mood too.
Beside of Jiu Fen, we went to several hot spot such as Bei Tou Hot Spring (sulfur hot spring), "Wu fen pu" (wholesaler street), Rao he night market..We spent our 3rd day on these places.
On the 4th Day, we signed on another city tour which found from the hotel we stayed.
with a price of TWD900 for the half day city tour.
Man Tou! However..it was almost a tasteless bun.. =<
City tour package include these attraction war memorial, jiang kai shek memorial, museum, handicraft market, Chinese temple. Our tour guide spoke a very fluent English which quite impressed me!
My Favourite Mian Sian!! It is fantastic! =) a must try in Xi Men Ding Street!
On the 5th day, we planned to walk around with the public transport - MRT - !! yeah yeah! A local uncle told us that Taipei MRT should looks smilliar with Singapore Mrt because Taiwan get helps from Singapore on the experience to set a MRT system.
Here we are Tapei 101!! It can be reached by taking MRT to Cityhall station.
