Taipei Day 1

Finally get to sit down and blog abt my taiwan trip.

This is a special trip to me, cuz it's the first time ever i set my foot out to a faraway country without my family members. But with a love one instead... Plus it's not a package tour hence i had to plan the itinerary myself

Airtickets and hotel rooms were booked months ago.

Continue reading for the rest of the trip as i will provide great tips travelling in Taipei and the best places for food and shopping.

This is my 2nd time taking SQ flights to Taiwan

Unfortunately the moment we reached the Taoyuan airport, dear and i engaged into a fight over the transport to the hotel. But the upset feeling was gone after we reach the hotel. I tried not to post pics that are similar to dear blog. But he had most of the pics cuz apparently i was too busy doing shopping and totally forgotten to take pics. hahaa!

It was only abt 4pm and it was already getting dark in Taipei.

The famous ximending shopping street

Tried my first Ah Zong Mian Xian and it was delicious!! No wonder it's their local favourite too! Long Long queue... It's come in 2 sizes, small and big bowl and if i nv remember wrongly, a big bowl cost abt NT50 and a small bowl is abt NT35.

Road that are only opened in the morning. As it can get really crowded during certain period of the day especially in the evening time...
