Taipei Outstation

Hello,

It's been sometime since the last blog i posted here. Lately a bit busy with my work because last week just back from Taipei outstation. Everything go as what we planned and the project was completed in time without any delay. So long i never travel far away, and finally i got the opportunity this time.

The flight from KLIA to Taipei is around 5 hours ++. The first moment when i arrived at the airport i quickly rush outside to get a taxi to my surprise there are taxi everywhere... From the airport to my hotel is around 40 miles away.... guess what the taxi fee for that journey cost me TWD 1200 is around RM 130 !!

After settle my daily work of cause is time to tour around town. During night there are night market everywhere. They call it "ye shi" in mandarin. It's something like pasar malam where you can get all kind of famous local food and you can also buy clothes etc etc.

During my visit to Taipei, i manage to travel outskirt a small town call "jiu fen". Nothing special just some town that locate on higher ground. In order to get there, i need to take 1 hour train from Taipei to Ruifeng and from Ruifeng took a bus to my destination.... It's very tired...but adventure :)

Basically is not a good time to go during weekend because the crowd will be very very pack... you can't even stop and buy something. Well you can try their "mua zhi" over here is quite nice and famous.
