Viva Taipei


After karaoke night, everybody seemed to be tired. Gathering time Danny announced was 8:20 am. Yeah, everyone just like to move on at that time.

Today, our tour spots are Palace Museum, Taipei 101 and Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall. But I didn't think we have a good start when leaving. The driver looked as he just wanted to go home earlier, hoping we go back chungli before 8:00 pm. I do not really like most drivers' attitudes in Taiwan. They always want to moving quickly in order to take the next passengers or to come off work.

Palace Museum


With lots of Ancient Chinese Antiques inside, Palace Museum is the first in Taiwan, I think also the first in the world. Unfortunately, Museum was crowded with group tours. Owing to the crowded lobby, Danny boy decided to let us pounder around the souvenir store after we entered the tiny gate. It’s my first time been here. Not like I thought before, the store do supplies fine and munificent goods. Most of us spent money on these full-of-chinese-style souvenirs.

As most Taiwanese think of Palace Museum, Jade cabbage must be the one cannot but be mentioned. Because of filling with people, we didn’t pay too much attention on the jades in the display room. Inside the museum, we also saw ancient brass wares, copper wares, pictures, toys, ancient Chinese living room and Buddhist statues.

Taipei 101
Great height building, Crowded People and dogs and wicked Armani guard. Unlike most students in taiwan just finding similar ones in night market or stores to buy, Paulina bought a pair of D&G shoes. It cost 6,000 NT dollar, Holly God! Most CYCU students will choose a similar one in night market or some cheaper store. Of course, the quality isn't so excellent. Unlike most foreigners want to go the 91 floor to see the view almost around all Taipei in 101, most Taiwanese rather spend money on something else.
