Cool Taiwan Trip in June

Hi,

I'm planning to go Taiwan in June. However i know nothing about there and the good places to visit or stay. So i'm wondering if there are anyone who has been there who can recommend me.

Thanks:biggrin4:

go around taipei's night markets. there are alot of it. super nice n super gd food. then gt streets shops selling cheap shoes, clothes and accessories etc.

there also alot of so called bear bear catcher shops. very cheap. is only SGD$0.50 per game. all sizes bear bear is at the same price.

for place to stay u can find some budget hotel there.try search in internet. as for mi i din stay in hotel as i gt taiwanese friends there and i stay at my friend's house.

ya dan shui is nice. got lots of things to eat and many games to play too. Very accessible as well. Just take their mrt to dan shui station.

If you read other forums, many people will recommend staying in Rainbow hotel in ximending. If you are going to travel around by mrt in Taipei, I will recommend that you look for hotels near the mrt station - Taipei Main Station, rather than ximending. The station is something like City Hall/Raffles Place interchange. You will be able to access many different mrt lines from Taipei Main Station.

Woah.. I love Taiwan!!! :rock:
I juz came back from Taiwan in Jan... though juz months back.. but well.. kinda miss the place down there..

Hotels? If u going shopping area, most common one is Rainbow Hotel at Xi Men Ting.. if it is fully booked.. u can try East dragon, if u aren't expecting much from a hotel.. juz a nice bed to slp at nite....

Xi Men Ting definitely has much to shop!!! I can intro one place that's nice to shop.. It is call Wu Fen Pu... it is like Hong Kong Nu Ren Jie!~ muahahha.... and its cheap!! Real cheap if u can bargain!!! haha...

But some of the foods in Si lin won't be having in Dan Shui.. Alot of variety of food in Si lin and Dan Shui and also can shop. Anyway it's up to individual to choose.

Oh ya. If u are in Dan Shui, try thier BBQ Chou Tofu ( fragmented tofu), u may like it or u may not like it, It's the 1st of the kind..

For me i love fragmented Tofu, so i did tried alot of diff tofu.. BUt didnt get to try the Ma La Chou To fu..

Enjoy ur trip ya :biggrin4:
