Taiwan - Overview

The Master Plan of Taiwan


So you are thinking about travelling to Taiwan and have no idea where to start? Here's some information of my itinerary for my trip. Guide for 7 days in Taiwan.

Day 1 - Arrival
Our flight ticket was just Rm900 with return flight, however this consider a mid range priced(can get even cheaper if we purchase earlier with AirAsia free seat promo). We ain't complain much on winter season.
Due to night flight, we stay our night at City Suite @TaoYuan for Rm300.

Day 2 - TaiChung
Took bullet train to TaiChung from TaoYuan that cost NTD540. Then we checked in to our Ming Shu which can be found in HERE.
Feng Jia Night Market, our night activities. Forget about dinner, snack your way through this night market and be a happy kid to sleep at night.

Day 3 - Qing Jing Farm(清境农场)
We have hired a local tour of 4 days to ease our trip, because some places are just too difficult to go. His name is Panda, although is a bit expensive as compared to other, but his service is very good.
We visited Taroko Gorg(太鲁阁),Qing Jing Farm(清境农场), Carton King(纸箱王) and Small Swiss Garden(小瑞士花园).

Day 4 - Sun Moon Lake(日月潭)
We visited Sun Moon Lake(日月潭) and Paper Dome.

Day 5 - Jiu Fen(九分)
Visited Jiu Fen and Jiu fen Old Street(九分久道)

Day 6 - Yang Ming Shan( 阳明山)
Visited Yang Ming Shan, have lunch at Kuang An Temple(广安庙). Then headed to Dan Shui(淡水).

Day 7 - 故宫(National Palace Museum)
Visited 故宫(National Palace Museum), then Xi Men Ding(西门町).

Day 8 - MaoKong, Shi Lin Market
Visited MaoKong for some tea. Then Shilin for the food.

Day 9 - Taipei 101
Visited Taipei 101.

Ok I lied, it surpose to be 9 days, but 1st and last day doesn't consider full day, So make it a 7 day guide?

Anyway, have fun in Taiwan.
