Food court |
Even is the food court food, the food here is delicious and not that pricey surprisingly.

While we on the street, we encounter a pack of protestors marching on the main street of the Government Office.
I think the protest is about the transparency of the government and the high tax of the country.

About 4pm, we took a bus and back to Tao Yuan international airport.
