Taiwan Day 2 Part 1

it was challenging for me to wake that pig up!! breakfast!!
this depicts exactly what we had during my previous trip there!

easy card!
this is Taipei main station, same line at Xi Men.

we were heading to west bus station!
trying to act like a tourist!

we bought our tickets to board bus to Yeh Liu

waiting for bus!
my brother loves this!!

so cute right! it's only $0.40!
passed by some bridge

on board, waiting for driver LOL
we alighted here!
the fishing harbour!
i had never seen such port before!

found our destination!

symbol of yeh liu!
the honeycomb princess HAHA!

all the places to explore!


walked up this stretch to be surprised!
lotsa princess statues, each represents different destination
queen's head II
(Y)




HAHAHAH!
the mushroom rocks!
cant stand how messy my hair was!

u will love this place!

the real queen's head!
HELLO~
with the "map of taiwan"

telling how the rocks formed..
yeh liu street
o-ah-jian!

Basically I only posted pictures of Yeh Liu Geo Park 野柳 because there are way too many pictures to be posted for day 2!

We had breakfast in hotel and headed out, weather was fine though!

Took metro from xi men to taipei main and found our way to West bus terminal.

FYI, it is located at terminal A, we had a hard time finding the bus that serves yeh liu cause the locals didnt know as well!

but dont worry, as long as u can converse in mandarin, u wont be lost!

I wrote everything in details, so I can show them in case they didnt understand me!

queue 8, bus 1815 will bring u there!

driver will inform n shout but there were many tourists alighting as well!

explored the fishing harbour, nice!

bought tickets which cost abt $2!

cheap attractions, no i meant damn worth the $$$!

cant compare to Singapore flyer which will cost u $30 for 30 minute's rotation T.T

there is a visitor information area there in case u need help..

Ocean World is located just opposite Yeh Liu, but I gave that a miss cause there isnt much diff from underwater world.

The wind was so freaking strong but damn shiok la! HAHA!

All the rocks formed naturally by themselves, caused by wind, sand and water and the queen's head is the symbolic figure there...

queen's head 2 n 3 are made cause the authentic one has been affected by corrosion!

we even witness couples taking wedding shoot there! :D

anw there will be many tour groups so u can just join in and steal some info from the tour guide. LOL. cheapskate.

went to the street market for a break and for food!!

ended up buying some souvenirs home!

we spent about 2 hours there and headed to somewhere else! HAHAHA!
