Early in the morning, around 8.45am, we was told that there is a market near the house so we went and see what can we get for breakfast. After reaching the other end of the market, we saw a shop with lot of people so we went and take a look with what are they selling. It was those Taiwanese breakfast. Since the queue wasn't too long, so we decided to had our breakfast there.
A variety of food for us to choose. So we just choose one for some of the varieties there.
3 cups of soya bean 温豆浆
2 guo tie 锅贴
1 gao li cai 高丽菜
1 饼 + 蛋 + 油条
= 145nt
The queue gets longer at 9am onwards. Seems like this is one of the famous shop for breakfast.
After our breakfast, we went to get a bus (number 405) at Nan Jing Dong Lu to Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall 国父纪念馆. We wanted to go at 9am to watch the soldier exchange ceremony but we couldn't make it at that time for we reach at the next hour(10am).
Having a nice view of Tai Pei 101 at Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall.
Not to forget the Dome that was undergoing construction
Hello Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall
The Soldiers exchange Ceremony wasn't as attractive as before. heard that the soldiers actually throw guns and march in a big group. Unlike now, just 3 soldiers.
We left Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall after taking pictures of the building and TaiPei101. Time to have a closer view of it.
Passed by the City Hall while walking to TaiPei101
We went in to the building for toilet and for wifi connection and left. haha.
We sat bus from Tai Pei 101 to City Hall station and MRT from City Hall station to Hou Pi Shan station(Wu Fen Pu 五分埔)
Remember to take exit 4 to Wu Fen Pu 五分埔
And a U-turn after the escalator
We had lunch before shopping at Wu Fen Pu. We saw a food shop at the end of the street(before crossing the crossroads junction).
姐 妹凉面 Sister's Cold Mee (Not sure what is the actual name in English). 3 of us wanted to order only a bowl but the boss told us that we need to order atleast 2bowls because they have limited seats. So we ordered one miso soup and seaweed soup (味增汤 和 紫菜汤) with 2 plates of mee (one original and one spicy).
It is something new to us and it taste good. The spicy mee is quite spicy, so you can call them to put less chilli if needed.
I forget to take pictures of Wu Fen Pu. There are a few streets and we bought 3 clothes in total. The clothes inside the shop isn't cheap. However, you can choose from the rack outside the shop that costs around 100nt to 300nt.
After Wu Fen Pu, we went to Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall 中正纪念堂.
It is bigger here compare with Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall. They also have soldiers exchange Ceremony here and it is quite similar with the one we watch before this.
I would recommend you to Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall 中正纪念堂.
If you want to know about the history, Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall tells more about it.
Saw a few groups of people having practice there. Like the one below， dance practice and others. The hall beside them is for some occasions or performances.
Soldier Exchange Ceremony is going to start
!
It was raining quite heavily when we are leaving.
We went Guang Hua shopping district 光华商圈, a mall that sells IT products after Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall.
We only got to know that Guang Hua Shopping District is the old IT products shopping mall. There is a new one beside by the name of San Chuang Sheng Huo 三创生活. We was surprise to know that we need to line up to enter the mall. It says that they are controlling the number of people inside.
After walking 10 steps into the mall. It was like a traffic jam inside! Now I know the reason to queue up before entering. I was follow my brother incase I get lost. The number of people inside is out of what I imagine. Haha!
Most of the products in this mall is updated. I don't usually see it in Malaysia and it is hard to find I guess.
8F - 12F coming soon!
I'd strongly recommend you this mall if you like to see IT products.
The rain stops when we reach San Chuang Sheng Huo 三创生活. But when we want to leave, it is raining heavily. We took a direct bus back to the place we stay and have a rest before going to Xi Men Ding.
It was 8.30pm when we leave after having dinner to XI Men Ding. It wasn't raining anymore that time but not at Xi Men Ding. The rain never stop since day 3 at Taiwan!
We didn't manage to go many places at Xi Men Ding because of the rain. Thought I could skip this place the next time I go to Taiwan. Seems like I need to go Xi Men Ding again. haha!
There is this lady performing by the roadside.
Before leaving, we found this shop at 10.30pm and the people there told us to fasten our walking speed before it is sold off. It was quite nice and 3 of us share a big bowl of this Mee 面线.
Time to go back. It is around 11.20pm when we sat on the MRT back to Nan Jing Dong Lu.
A tearing Day 6. How sad to not have a good, sunny and windy day there. Which season for the next time(dreaming for the next time)? Fall?
Day 6, the second last day. Gonna leave during Day 7. Time to say Goodbye tomorrow.
