Readme before you journey
Thailand has entered the rainy season. In Bangkok today, it rained all morning and evening.
The trip to Taiwan in late 2015 brought back many memories.
We traveled to Taiwan from December 5th to 11th, 2015.
It was probably the transition period between the rainy and winter seasons, as it was cold and wet.
We encountered rain and overcast skies throughout the trip, except for the day we were leaving, when the sun was blazing. 5555
Perhaps the charm of Taiwan that made us fall in love with it could be attributed to the rain.
(Written on June 16, 2016)
When it rains, I feel like I'm still in Taiwan. The memories come flooding back. 55555 It's so surreal.
I actually started writing a review, but I never finished it.
Maybe it's because I don't have much time. When I do have time, I'm too lazy. And after a while, I started to forget. My memory is fading, and the feeling is gone!!
It's been 1 month, 2 months, 3,4 months, until today...
But lately, it's been raining a lot at home, and it's sparked a longing for Taiwan that's overflowing.
It makes me want to finish the story beautifully.
Maybe the rain that's falling today is the inspiration that makes me want to tell the story of Taiwan. :X
During that period, Taiwan was experiencing a significant boom, as evidenced by numerous reviews on various websites and forums.
The price of the device is incredibly affordable, with numerous promotions available.
We don't have a promo ticket, but we're in a hurry and we're afraid we won't make it.
This translates to:
Therefore, I obtained a V Air ticket for a roundtrip price of over 6400 baht.
After booking, promotional tickets were released at incredibly low prices, with round-trip flights costing only a few thousand baht.
First, I would like to express my gratitude for the information provided by
Self-Guided Taiwan Travel Group: TAIWAN, I'm Obsessed! A Journey of Exploration, Gastronomy, and Shopping.
Facebook Fanpage: I Work For Travel, 1000MilesJourney.com
Facebook by Sarinee Cheng and the book "Taiwanese Tycoon".
For accommodation, we opted for a hostel, specifically the 1983 Second Hostel, from the 5th to the 9th. On the 10th, we planned to sleep at the airport. Our decision to stay in a hostel was primarily driven by its affordability.
We booked a 5-night, 6-day stay at the hostel through Hostelworld for 4400 TWD, which is about 2000 baht per person. After booking and paying a deposit, the hostel sent us a map and travel details. We chose the Standard 4 Bed Female room, which is like a house. It has everything you need, including a hairdryer, hair straightener, and laundry service. You can just bring yourself. Most of the people we met at the hostel were Korean or Japanese, and there were only two of us Thai people. Don't worry, the staff here speaks fluent English.
Let's embark on our journey!
DAY 1: BANGKOK - TAIWAN
Is there anything else I can help you with?
The first day of the trip, we departed from Don Mueang Airport at around 10 am. We arrived at Taoyuan Airport at 3:20 pm, one hour ahead of Thailand time. We went through immigration. Since we were not in a hurry, we opened a SIM card first. We got a 7-day SIM card for 500 TWD. After opening the SIM card, we went through immigration again. From the time when there were few people, there were a lot of tourists, both Thai, Korean, and Japanese. It took a long time to get through the queue because they only opened a few channels.
The next step is to take the bus to Taipei. Follow the signs that say "Bus to City" and you will find the Airport Bus. Buy a ticket for bus number 1961 to Taipei. The journey usually takes about an hour, but we left at 5 pm and arrived in Taipei at around 9 pm because of the heavy traffic.
The bus will drop us off at Taipei Main Station. Then, take the red MRT line to Chiang Kai-Shek Station. Transfer to the green MRT line and get off at Taipower Building Station. According to the directions sent by the accommodation, walk 500 meters to reach Shi-Da Night Market. Then, walk into the alley for another 200 meters.
Still, still not yet arrived at the accommodation.
The feeling at that time was very tired. When will I arrive at the accommodation?
Very hungry, nothing has fallen to the stomach since on the plane, the bag is also heavy.
Plus, I got lost and walked around the world to the accommodation. Even though I had a map.
But when we passed Shi-Da Night Market,
The tiredness disappeared. I hurried to the accommodation quickly. I had extra energy.
I didn't think our accommodation would be so close to the market. I'm happy.
There are a lot of teenagers dressed in trendy clothes and trendy clothes. The price is also similar to our home.
No need to bring heavy clothes. Just buy it here and wear it.
"If we don't have enough money, we don't have to cycle in Hualien," said the other traveler who came with them when they encountered this market.
Missing Shi-da Night Market
A small market near National Taiwan Normal University.
Clothing and goods here are therefore aimed at young people, are affordable, and can be bargained for.
The food scene here is diverse, offering cuisine from all over the world, including Taiwanese, Korean, Japanese, and even Thai.
Encountered Totoro and Kaonashi, the faceless spirit, from Spirited Away.
For our first dinner today, we wanted to try the local cuisine.
The menu was entirely in Chinese, leaving me completely lost.
Instead, I opted for this Japanese restaurant because it offered a separate English menu. I kept it light.
Beef rice for 90 TWD, fried dumplings for 60 TWD. The exchange rate at that time was 1.12.
DAY2
Missing TAIPEI ART AND CULTURE and dear friend TORORO
Day Two of the Trip: Exploring Taipei's Iconic Landmarks
Today, we set out to explore the iconic landmarks that define Taipei's cityscape.
Whether it is Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall, Red House,
HUASAN 1914 CREATIVE PARK , Taipei 101 Building
We can travel by MRT and only need an Easy Card.
With this, we can go anywhere we want.
The rain started early this morning and shows no signs of stopping.
A popular saying in Taiwan states, "If you haven't encountered rain during your visit, you haven't truly experienced Taiwan."
Consider this morning's rain as a warm welcome to Taiwan for the two of us, Thai women.
Don't hesitate, don't fear the rain, each with an umbrella, ready to go, hooray!!!
After leaving the accommodation, we took a walk around the area to explore the atmosphere.
It is currently 8:00 AM and surprisingly, no shops are open yet.
Is the shop normally closed on Saturdays?
Is there anything else I can help you with?
I have read that it is not because of laziness.
Due to the late working hours of Taiwanese people, shops typically open around 10 am.
After exploring the area around our accommodation, we decided to take a chance and find a place for breakfast.
We eat at any restaurant we come across, and we enjoy whichever one we like.
This morning's breakfast spot was discovered while walking to the MRT, passing through a fresh market.
"Taking a stroll through this place feels like walking through a local fresh market back home."
And then we found our first breakfast of the day.
A small restaurant, similar to a rice-topping curry shop, with tables for seating. I would like to try it.
The stern-looking owner of the shop didn't speak English, and we didn't speak Chinese, so we just pointed at what we wanted.
A braised egg, a piece of chicken, plain rice, and soup, all for 70 TWD.
The taste is good, similar to Thai food, and the price is cheap.
Before we go to the first landmark, we need to buy an Easy Card.
You can also use it to buy things at Se7en Familymart or other convenience stores.
Alternatively, it can be used to purchase beverages from vending machines, making it a truly versatile card.
Easy Cards are available for purchase at various convenience stores.
Information on train stations or at automatic ticket machines.
A deposit of 100 TWD is required.
Remembering Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall
MRT Chiang Kai-Shek Station, Exit 5.
A must-visit destination for tourists.
The first thing that catches the eye is the entrance archway, the largest of its kind in Taipei.
Upon passing through this archway, the memorial will be directly ahead.
An octagonal roof in Feng Shui. The number 8 symbolizes wealth.
The staircase has 89 steps, which is the age of President Chiang Kai-shek.
Upon ascending, one encounters a grand hall adorned with a bronze statue of President Chiang Kai-shek.
HUASAN 1914 CREATIVE PARK
MRT Zhongxiao Xinsheng Station, Exit 1. Follow the GPS directions.
This area was once a winery. After the winery ceased production,
It became a deserted place, and later it was renovated to become an art exhibition space.
A hub for stylish design works, also featuring trendy restaurants with cool decorations for a relaxing atmosphere.
Try the mocha at Trio Cafe. It's delicious.
The price is a bit high, at 120 TWD per cup.
Introducing our fellow travelers for this trip:
"The unit in question, known as the 'Assault Unit,' is proficient in both spoken and written English."
To be used as a vanguard when the time comes. When lost, confused, or in need of information, inquire about this.
We are "lurkers," hiding in the bushes like snakes and fish. Haha.
The rain is still falling. I found a shop on the side of the road and decided to try something. I don't know what it's called.
It tasted like deep-fried battered sausage, very delicious and affordable.
MRT Ximen Station, Exit 1
The building is an octagonal red brick structure. Inside, there are exhibitions that change regularly.
And there is also a coffee shop to sit inside.
TAIPEI 101
MRT Taipei 101/World Trade Center Station
The tallest building in Taiwan. I could only take this picture, haha. Really,
As planned, we will go to see the view of Taipei 101 at sunset.
From Elephant Mountain, but judging from today's sky, this program will have to be canceled.
It's a pity, as I had set my heart on coming here.
Near Taipei 101, we came to find Totoro at ATT 4 Fun on B1 floor.
This is the world's largest Totoro shop, a must-visit for Totoro fans.
I bought three items at the shop for 80 TWD each.
I would love to buy the doll, but the price is a bit steep. I'm worried I won't have enough money for food.
This is another one of my friends. She is a die-hard Studio Ghibli fan.
Day 3: Reminiscing about Hualien
When I cycled along the Pacific coast on a "housewife" bike and took a bus tour of Taroko.
Today, we aim to escape the hustle and bustle of city life.
Embrace nature and embrace the slow life in Hualien.
The largest city in Taiwan's eastern region.
The primary objective of this city's tourism policy is to promote leisurely cycling experiences.
Winding through villages before reaching the Pacific Ocean.
The journey did not start as slowly as I had anticipated.
Despite arriving half an hour before the train's departure, I still missed it!
The ticket states that the train departs at 9:00 AM. At 8:57 AM, a train arrived at the platform labeled "Pingxi".
Except for that, everything else was in Chinese, so we figured it wasn't this procession, and we continued taking pictures.
Still taking pictures?
Realizing that it was already 9:03 AM and the train had not yet arrived, I turned to ask the tourist next to me.
In conclusion, you have not been selected to proceed.
He also said to hurry and buy a new ticket, the train will arrive in 15 minutes!!
However,
However,
However, don't worry or panic just yet.
Do not rush to buy new tickets like us, because we will not be able to find where to buy tickets.
5555555555555555555
"We couldn't find each other. We spent about half an hour searching for each other, but we couldn't find each other."
I couldn't figure out how to use the ticket machine.
"We've already told you to relax."
Walk gracefully to the staff and show them your ticket if you can't understand each other.
They will know immediately that you are not continuing.
The staff will then direct us to submit our tickets at the designated location, where they will be stamped.
Seating is not assigned, so please find an available seat.
This translates to: "We will then receive the original ticket, with the addition of a stamped seal and without a designated seat."
The fare to Hualien is NT$427.
In summary, we boarded the train and stood near the restrooms. It was incredibly romantic.
However, we did not stand all the way to Hualien City.
Translation:
Passengers are not permitted to stand on the train.
After standing and sitting for about half an hour, an officer came across them.
The conductor then instructed us to move two carriages forward, where there were plenty of empty seats available.
We arrived in Hualien City around noon.
We need to find a place to stay for the night, as we did not book accommodation in advance.
Finding accommodation is easy. There are many hotels and guesthouses to choose from in front of Hualien Station.
Checked into the hotel and everything is in order. The hotel offers free bicycles for guests to use.
Let's take the hotel's bicycle (to save time and money) and explore the city of Hualien.
Giant housekeeper

The first place we visited, which we could see from afar, was...
Translation:
The Hualien Martyrs' Shrine, also known as the Karenkō Shrine, is a Shinto shrine located in Hualien City, Taiwan.
Translation:
Hualien Martyrs' Shrine, also known as Karenkō Shrine
Translation:
A serene temple rests atop a small hill in the north of Hualien City.
The shrine is usually visited by tourists or locals who come to pay their respects.
We didn't dare to go inside, we could only take in the surrounding atmosphere.
From this angle, you can see the view of Hualien City.
Our next cycling destination is Chihsing Tan Beach.
The Chihsing Tan Beach is only 5.4 kilometers away from the shrine.
At that moment, it felt like we were miles away, gradually moving further and further from the city and our homes.
I wonder if the GPS is taking me the right way. Why haven't I seen any other tourists?
But in a few moments, there will be light at the end of the tunnel.
A faint view of the sea can be seen, but we must first get through this steep hill!
Despite its small size, it can still be pushed. Haha!
The car in front has already started climbing the hill. Let's go! Shake, shake, shake!
The long wall on the left is a military camp. We cycled past the military camp and saw the sea.
The military camp was extremely long and tiring!
Before turning left to Chihsing Tan Beach, you will encounter a public park with a scenic viewpoint overlooking the sea.
Let's stop by and take some pictures.
Head to Chihsing Tan Beach next.
It is not recommended to cycle through this blue wind wall. Even though it blocks the wind from the sea, the wind is still strong.
It is recommended to cycle down south under the bridge. This will allow you to reach Chihsing Tan Beach safely.

Is there anything else I can help you with?
Looking at the map in the picture, I was shocked. We're going to be in Taroko soon?
You don't actually need to cycle, because if you plan to visit Taroko…
Cyclists can disembark here and rent bicycles.
We only found out about this after visiting Taroko.
BANG!!!!
Why did we cycle here?
Cried so hard, hahahahahaha.
Chihsing Tan Beach is a beach with smooth, rounded stones.
Translation:
This sentence is already in English and does not require translation.
The beach is not suitable for swimming due to strong waves and currents.
The sea state today is rough with waves reaching level 8 out of 10.
The wind is very strong, and the sea breeze is blowing far away.
The camera got wet before I even reached the beach. My face and hair, don't even get me started.
Translation:
This sentence is already in English and does not require translation.
After taking some photos, we cycled back around 3 pm.
Let's return to the hotel to rest for a while, as we have plans to explore Hualien City tonight.
On the way back to the accommodation, I came across a farm.
We came across an elderly couple harvesting water spinach, so we stopped to take some photos.
The old man said something to us, but we couldn't understand him. We just smiled and waved back.
The cycling route on the map covers a roundtrip distance of approximately 20 kilometers.
Translation:
This sentence is already in English and does not require translation.
After capturing this map image, I realized that the actual route cyclists take is the yellow line along the coast.
Wow!
Transition to the night part.
We opted to walk instead of cycling, believing it would allow us to explore every nook and cranny of the city more thoroughly.
Despite the initial enthusiasm, the actual walk proved to be too long, prompting complaints. On the return trip, the decision was made to take a taxi back to the hotel, despite the cost.
The starting point is the hotel. Walk straight ahead to find the city's night market.
Translation:

Where are you? Is this the place?

Unsure, she continued walking, until she began to see a glimmer of light and a scenic view.
Upon closer inspection, it appears to be a shrine!
The atmosphere is similar to a local temple fair, with balloon darts and shooting games.
To provide everyone with a glimpse of Taiwanese temple fairs, we obtained photographs from another individual who had captured them.
The front of the building looked very beautiful, and I wanted to go inside. However, I decided to wait until I was on my way back.
And then we saw the back, bang!!! You tricked me 5555.
Day 4: Exploring Taroko and reminiscing about the emerald river.
It's already the fourth day of our trip in Taiwan.
Our itinerary for this morning is to breathe in the fresh air of Taroko and then return to Taipei in the evening.
Taroko, also known as Taroko Gorge, is the name used by Taiwanese people to refer to the scenic canyon carved by the Liwu River in eastern Taiwan.
It is a park where tourists come to breathe fresh air and admire the beauty of the marble walls.
And the emerald river that stretches through the valley
We traveled to Taroko by choosing to use Hualien's tourist bus service because it was the cheapest option.
Visitors can travel to various tourist attractions in Taroko throughout the day.
Tickets can be purchased and buses boarded at the front of Hualien Station.
To ensure a safe journey, it is advisable to check the weather conditions and the availability of services at your destination.
Reports of rockslides emerged before my arrival.
When we purchased our tickets, the staff informed us that the attraction was closed for renovations and that there were several unsafe areas.
A one-day bus tour may not be enough to cover all the sights. For those who want to visit multiple locations, it is recommended to hire a taxi.
The price was too high for just two people, costing over 1,000 baht per person.
Go all the way to the end and then travel back to Taipei.
There is no specific reason for choosing this location. It just happens to be the first stop for the bus.
The bus will stop at the Visitor Center, and then we will walk through the tunnel.
Approximately 4.5 kilometers, taking over 2 hours.
At the end of the dirt road, you will find a cluster of approximately 4-5 small souvenir shops.
The view unfolds to reveal verdant mountains interspersed with intricate rock formations.
Climb up the large rock to take some pictures.
On the way back, there was a light drizzle. We will take a different route back.
Translation:
This sentence is already in English and does not require translation.
We will encounter a rope bridge and a green wooden bridge.
Continuing along the path, we will eventually reach the original tunnel we entered through. From there, we can return to the Visitor Center.
We will take the bus back to Hualien Station and then return to Taipei.
For those who have lost their tickets along the way or cannot find them like us,
You can use the Essy Card to pay instead. But at that time, we didn't know. We got on the bus and were in a hurry to find tickets.
Additionally, we encountered a grumpy driver with a stern expression who refused to depart until we located our tickets.
The uncle pointed to the Easy Card, so we used it to pay instead.
I sat down for a while and found a ticket hidden in a book.
The person who sat next to us on the bus told us to show this ticket to the driver.
They asked for a refund to be issued to their Easy Card, but the customer service representative spoke in Chinese.
Upon reaching our destination, the final stop, I presented my ticket to the driver.
May I go to work now?
Day 5: Exploring the Historic Pingxi Railway Line
Today, we woke up to the familiar sight of falling rain. Despite the persistent showers, we were determined to embark on our planned journey to Shifen, Pingxi, and Juifen.
Our itinerary for the day included:
- Pingxi Railway Line: We will ride the historic Pingxi Railway Line, a scenic route that winds through the mountains and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside.
- Shifen: We will visit the charming town of Shifen, known for its traditional sky lanterns and bustling night market.
- Pingxi: We will explore the historic mining town of Pingxi, where we can learn about the area's rich coal mining history.
- Juifen: We will wander through the picturesque mountain town of Juifen, renowned for its narrow alleyways, tea houses, and stunning coastal views.
Despite the rain, we are excited to experience the unique charm of these destinations and immerse ourselves in the rich history and culture of the region.
However, it was a complete disaster.
Depart from your accommodation before taking the MRT to Taipei Main Station.
I stopped by the shop I pass by every day to buy some steamed buns, which usually has a very long line.
This is for breakfast.
Translation:

Before the train arrives, walk up and ask them directly! (Focus on the young men first, haha!)
"Which side of the train should I take to get to Houtong Cat Village?"
Deploy the assault unit. We have reinforcements in the form of a Hong Kong uncle and his family (what about the handsome young man?).
They invited us to go with them and showed us a document indicating where they were going.
We were both easygoing, so we agreed to go with them. But where is it?
The rain started to fall, so the kitten probably won't come out to play.

The rain is getting heavier, creating a lonely atmosphere.
The most popular activity for tourists visiting this location is releasing sky lanterns.
We found this city to be charming, with an old-world feel and a captivating atmosphere. Even the railway tracks exuded a certain allure.
We are approaching the waterfall.
It is said to be a miniature Niagara Falls.
The distance from the train station to here is approximately 1-2 kilometers. It takes about 30 minutes to walk.
On the way back to the train station, I stopped to take a picture at an unnamed bridge.

We encountered an elderly Hong Kong gentleman who waved us over and informed us that the next train was approaching.
Let's take the picture and hurry back. We've both decided that...
We must therefore bid farewell at this bridge.
Lost track of time while chilling, wanted to take more photos, and missed the train back.
The train passed before our very eyes, but we were helpless. We stood there stunned and breathless!
You'll have to wait another hour if you want to catch the train to Pingxi. It hasn't left the platform yet.
Run! Run! Run to catch up! In the end, I made it. I even met the Hong Kong uncle on the same train.
Tell him I missed the train again.
We wandered around the city, exploring its sights.
A signpost indicated that a temple and a scenic viewpoint of Pingxi town were located uphill.
A simple lunch at Family Mart in Pingxi.

The city's charm and allure are hidden in its nooks and crannies.
No need for new buildings to replace the old, conserve what we have.

Dinner tonight is ready to be served. We don't need to go to the market as we planned.
This shop caught our eye from the first day we arrived, and we paid special attention to it.
That's it!!!
This is a Thai restaurant! I ordered a set of steamed fish with lemon for 199 TWD.
Let's chat a little. She was an exchange student at Mae Fah Luang University in Chiang Rai.
No wonder you speak Thai so fluently.
Farewell, Taipei!
Our final day of travel has arrived.
We packed our bags and checked out of the hostel in the late morning.
For those who want to visit Taipei and are looking for affordable accommodation,
close to Shi-da Night Market (just a 20-step walk away), this hostel is a great option.
It's a picture taken by the SWAT team.
1983 Second Hostel costs around 400 baht per night.
The ground floor will be the kitchen and the men's quarters.
Taipei Main Station is extremely confusing. If you come here 10 times, you will get lost 10 times.
The only thing I remember is that the luggage storage was located near the Sushi Take Out restaurant, and I stumbled upon it by chance.

To follow one's plans or to follow one's heart: a perpetual dilemma.
This age-old question has captivated philosophers, artists, and individuals throughout history. The allure of both paths presents a compelling internal conflict, often leading to profound introspection and challenging decisions.
Following one's plans offers the allure of structure, stability, and a sense of control. It provides a roadmap for navigating life's uncertainties, offering a clear direction and a framework for achieving desired goals. This path often aligns with societal expectations, leading to a sense of accomplishment and external validation.
On the other hand, following one's heart beckons with the promise of passion, authenticity, and fulfillment. It invites individuals to embrace their deepest desires and aspirations, leading them down a path less traveled, yet potentially more rewarding. This path prioritizes internal satisfaction and aligns with one's true self, fostering a sense of purpose and personal growth.
Ultimately, the choice between following one's plans or one's heart is a deeply personal one. There is no right or wrong answer, as the optimal path varies depending on individual circumstances, values, and aspirations.
However, it is crucial to acknowledge the potential consequences of each choice. Following one's plans may lead to a sense of unfulfillment if it deviates significantly from one's true desires. Conversely, following one's heart may lead to uncertainty and instability, requiring resilience and adaptability.
Therefore, the most prudent approach may lie in finding a balance between these two seemingly disparate paths. Integrating elements of both planning and spontaneity can offer a more holistic and fulfilling approach to navigating life's journey.
By carefully considering one's values, aspirations, and circumstances, individuals can embark on a path that aligns with their authentic selves while maintaining a sense of direction and purpose.
Farewell to Tamsui, Taiwan
This simple and concise translation captures the essence of the original phrase while maintaining a formal academic tone. It avoids personal pronouns and colloquialisms, and it is supported by the evidence of the original text. The active voice is used, and the sentence is concise.
Here is a breakdown of the translation:
- Goodbye: This directly translates the Thai word "ลา" (la), which means "goodbye."
- Taiwan: This is the name of the country where Tamsui is located.
- Tamsui: This is the name of the specific location in Taiwan that the speaker is saying goodbye to.

There are also bicycle rental shops available, with affordable prices and a variety of options to choose from.
A wide variety of bicycles are available, including city bikes, road bikes, mountain bikes, tandems, single bikes, and tricycles.
However, for foreign tourists like us, they will ask for our passports.

Thank you for all your support and shares.
