Hello Taipei!

Arrive into Taoyuan airport to a massive queue at immigration. But thankfully the processing was quick with no verbal communication, only hand gestures.
Tried our luck at the lucky draw but no game fish.
Took the express MRT service to Taipei Main Station, then 400m walk to Rich & Free Hotel. Affordable and clean hotel, with decent people at reception. Free small packet snacks also.
Went to Liu Shandong Beef noodle, ordered clear beef soup and braised beef soup. Nice and can taste the difference between the two. Also had salty vege to put into soup. Had boiled peanuts (yum) and pickled Cabbage also (weirddd). Had peach black tea with yakult afterwards, very nice.
Then walked to Bopiliao Historical Block to explore a bit of the history of Taipei, the people and the architecture of the buildings. We passed by yongfu ice cream accidentally on the way, so had longan, limei and taro ice cream. So so la. Longan was probably the nicest.
Then went to Bangka Longshan temple, one of the biggest and most famous temples in Taipei City. There were pillars with small Buddha icons and names of peoples ancestors on them. So many!! And saw people trying to discern the will of the gods with the red moon blocks.
Went to Guangzhou and Wuzhou Street night market after. Had:
Taro balls
Stinky tofu(!)
Aiyu jelly drink
Oyster omelet (disappointing)
Bought some cut fruits
On the way back stopped by at Carrefour to buy a bunch of local beers for the week
At the night market saw some uncles playing tetris on the sidewalk on Arcade machines. Very cool la! And old uncle got young auntie girlfriend.Læs mere
