Taichung in our itenaries was due to Jazz Festival there. Knew about this from I magazine, so went to have a look. Crowd, happening, packed, but more impressed with food stalls there. Ha.
Everyday in Taiwan, we had porridge for breakfast. We did not get sick of it, as I love eat porridge furthermore each hotel would prepare different kind of side dishes, light but tasty breakfast, I just like it !
Mr.Squid..so tiny !
Took high speed rail at Taipei Station. The station is very complicated as there are 3 types of rails ~ train, MRT and high speed rail. Plus there are a lot restaurants upstairs. So you will need to spend some times exploring around there. Remarks : remember to take note on high speed rail schedule as there are discounts for non peak hours.
The experience was great. Must try the rail and very worth it ! High speed - 300km/h, time saving - within 1 hour reach Taichung, cost effective - compared to high speed rail ticket in Japan as what I heard. Plus can enjoy scenery along the journey. One more thing, you can drink and eat on the rail, even with your own prepared food. Wow !
There are still a lot to write for Day 2, so continue on Part 2 !
