This post will include Ximending Night Market, our accommodation while in Taiwan, Taipei 101, Ximending in the morning.


After strolling in Maokong Village, we headed back to Taipei Main Station to get our things from the locker. From there, we decided to just ride a cab to Ximending.

I suggest, however, upon booking your accommodation to locate it on google map. There's a nearby train station there so it's also convenient and cheaper if you're not travelling in group. 



We booked Cozy Room in Agoda. There isn't a sign. We were able to locate the address but couldn't find the room and we weren't able to contact Rex beforehand so he didn't know what time we were coming. 


The lady from the souvenir store helped us contact Rex so we waited in her store for around 20 minutes. 





We were supposed to go out after settling down but we were all exhausted that we immediately slept.. and poof, it's the next day already. :)) 


GUSTO KO LANG NAMAN SA BUHAY E MAGING INNIS FREE!!!!! HAHAHAHA.

Above is the picture that I've always wanted to take eversince Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam. hahaha!

Fast forward, I'm now using Innisfree No-Sebum Mineral Loose Powder now. Link: here. 


Taipei's Ximending feels so much like South Korea's Myeongdong.


Early in the morning, most of the stores are closed and there aren't a lot people. Much different from the lively crowd it has in the evening. 


We were thinking of going to the Starbucks of Taipei 101 but the need for reservation was a big factor that's why we didn't do it. It was only during our waiting time for the train to Ruifang did we have the time to go to this area. This picture was taken just outside the train station.

After leaving our things at a locker and eating breakfast, we rode the red line to Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Hall. 


Make sure to buy a transportation card before your trip 'cause that will save you the hassle of having to compute your fare and buying a single journey ticket every time.


The complex is just two stations away from Taipei Main Station when riding the red line. 


This should've been just a quick stop but it was raining so we had to wait and sit at the concert halls  first while waiting.


National Palace Museum E-Ticket



You can witness the changing of guards ceremony in Chiang Kai Shek. It's an hourly activity there. 


I wasn't sure if it was proper to take a selfie here, it's a memorial hall after all but the others were doing it and so I did.



While waiting for the rain to stop, we watched people doing yoga, muay thai, dancing and other things. This place is like Quezon City's Quezon Memorial Circle... only it's rectangle and wider and cleaner. :)))


I was looking forward to having my photo taken with this gate but boy, it was bigger than expected. 


The rain didn't completely stop but we decided to go back to the train station because we can't allow it to delay us any further. From there, we rode the red line to transfer to brown line which took us directly to the entrance of Taipei Zoo.

Taipei Zoo was the second item in the itinerary of our Taiwan trip.

First was the four buildings in Chiang Kai Shek.

We rode MRT's brown line and that took us directly to Taipei Zoo. If you're not into zoos, that same station is also where the lowest station of Maokong Gondola is located.

We used our transportation card to pay the entrance of Taipei Zoo. Having that card to reload your money in is really convenient since you can use it to pay for almost anything while in Taiwan. 


My first time seeing a koala in person.



First time seeing panda as well. 





The zoo was huge that even if they were signs all throughout the park, we still got lost. In face, we didn't see the elephants and giraffes. We just walked in circles.








Spot the bear legs... 



It was drizzling so I wasn't able to take my camera out for a long time... after around two hours of walking, we decided to look for the tram station. For a fee, the tram above would take you to the second station of the cable car.

 Rainbow Village in Taichung was our stop after Zhong She Guan Guang Flower Farm.

It was our cab driver who offered to wait so he can drive us here in Rainbow Village so I have no idea where the bus station of the bus that passes through here is located. 



It's not a huge area but it's filled with colorful paintings; there's also a coffee shop, playground, and a small souvenir shop.
