Taipei- day 1

This is the day! We booked the tickets one year ago, cost around RM750/pax.
After check in all the luggage, we went to starbucks to have our breakfast.

Our flight depart at 10:00am and we booked the AA set meal. Pictures shown in website/ menu are only for illustration only..lol..

Flight arrive Taipei Tao Yuan International Airport at 2:40pm. Cool weather. After taking our luggage, we went to buy the bus ticket (Guo Guang bus NT$125/pax) to Taipei bus station. (Directions: turn right after get out from the arrival door, walk straight and turn right again, walk straight till the end and turn left, can see few counter selling bus ticket to different destination.)

Unfortunately, it was raining at that moment. It took around 1 1/2 hour to arrive at Taipei bus station. We rushed into the hall and find the way to get our Easy Card. We took MRT to Long Shan Shi station, exit 3, turn left and we found our MANGO 53 INN. It was quite hard to notice the place as there is no bug signage outside.

A friendly staff bring us around and introduce the place. quite a cozy place. i booked through hostelworld.

6pm, already getting late, we decided to go around Long Shan Shi. 1st night market- Hua Xi night market. This night market has more traditional food. Both of us ate non stop.

We both went to Ximen night market to discover more food as the night is still young and the rain stop.

We went back with a full stomach.
