Danshuei is one of our favorite scenic spots in Taipei because of its natural landscape, special cuisine and snacks, vibrant streets, and reminiscent buildings - all in one - an ideal place suitable for us. It's so inviting that we keep coming here as often as possible.
The views and atmosphere here are absolutely gorgeous. I'd love to live here but that's out of the question I guess. So I'll just have to be contented coming here time after time.

Our first time to visit the Fort San Domingo, a Dutch castle, I was pretty excited and we walked all along from the Fisherman's Wharf, but it was closed for renovation. All I could do was just sit at its gate and sighed 'now what?'
'Mom, can we stop and take a rest for a while? I'm tired of walking.'
Buying for some yummy pastries and cakes. This is a must.
The sun was slowly setting as we were waiting for a ferry that would take us back to Bali.
The most amazing view.

Yes Bebang, we actually thought of that. One of our wedding presents will be an all-expense-paid honeymoon trip to Taiwan. Oh gosh, I'm so excited, I can't wait.
ReplyDeletePig's blood cake is the most bizarre food in the world, according to British survey. It's good, you should try it.
