TAIWAN-PART 2: DAY 5-10: KAOHSIUNG, YANGMINGSHAN, TAIPEI

Taiwan: Day 5-10
Continuation from previous post of Taiwan!

Day 5: Kaohsiung - ChiChin Island, Love River
We decided to change our departure from Star Villa to a later timing around 11 and informed Star Villa the night before. They arranged for transport and called a cab to pick us up ! The journey took around an hour and we were dropped off once again at the Taichung Train station for us to get our High speed rail to Zuoying Station (Kaohsiung). We departed at 14:01 and reached at 15:00 pm! The High Speed rail is really very fast and convenient! We brought our luggage along and walk out of the train station, around 2 mins walk, we found our hotel!:D Sorry did not get pictures of the lobby, but only the entrance to the rooms from the lift!

By the time we checked in and settled down it was kind of late. We shouldn't have taken our time!! But guess we were on a relaxed mode.. haha. We decided that we wanted to go to ChiChin Island for seafood dinner and to walk around! On our way there we saw several stalls and I saw one which sold a cute pet pig! Maybe its not meant to be a pet.. but its so cute-- I want a pig as a pet! haha

TAIWAN-PART 1: DAY 1 TO 4: TAIPEI, SUN MOON LAKE, CINGJING FARM

TAIWAN! -Part 1

View from our room's Balcony @ Sun Moon Lake!

A few months ago, Traveller J and I went to Taiwan and it was amazing!!! We wanted a relaxing holiday yet, at the same time exciting! Got to eat loads of delicious food, did some shopping, and saw beautiful scenery!:) This trip we went around Taipei (main places of interest: Yang Ming Shan, Taipei 101, SOGO Shopping, Shida Night Market, Ximending, Jiufen, etc), Nantou (Sun Moon Lake, Formosan Aboriginal Culture Village), Cingjing Farm, Kaohsiung (Liouhe night market, ChiChin Island, Dream mall). As I previously went to Taipei before and went to the different night markets, I didn't go this time. May you find our Taiwan itinerary useful for your own travel to Taiwan!
