Last pictures of Taipei, and I must say, I wish I’ll never come in this city again. It’s crowded, huge, dirty, grey, ugly, noisy, boiling as hell with heat, pollution and humidity. Breath there becomes painful. Only good thing: the MRT is fast and clean. Couldn’t see the top of the 101, because of 4… Continue reading »
Tamsui, is definitely the lamest place to be in Taipei. First of all: it’s UGLY: when you see the picture in the touristical brochure, it’s just either very hilarious (hello photoshop!), either very sad. Tamsui: is filthy, grey, ugly, and every store sells the exact overpriced damn stuff ! Pollution. Pollution. Pollution. So deep you… Continue reading »
See Part 1. There’s several Temples arround: Zhinan was build in 1891. This is a very exotic place, and guess what NOT crowded!!! It’s relaxing despite of the heat. If you stay fews days in Taipei, don’t miss it! And really unexpensive: Zoo entrance + cable railway = less than 2€! See Part 1: how… Continue reading »
Zhinan Temple is one of the best thing to see in Taipei! You can access it via the Zoo, taking a small train then a cable railway up to the mountains surrounding Taipei: the Maokong. Maokong is the last stop of the cable, and it’s just for tea stuff (I don’t like tea), plus crowded… Continue reading »
Crowded and noisy. So dark you can barely see a thing (the museum has not much to show anyway). However full of crazy ill-mannered screaming chinese tourists. Horribly crowded, with huge human traffic in every hallway, smell not funny, the air conditioner is not working well. If you stay few days in Taipei, don’t bother,… Continue reading »
I would have loved to look for other worlds through the universe (and also own my private spaceship). Documentaries about alien strange worlds are fascinating. Exoplanets/Alien Planets (HD documentary) Leave a comment!00
So back here in Taichung, there’s some great places to go. The heat is really annoying and exhausting, plus now, it’s now full of mosquitoes. I know I complain a lot about the heat, but this is humid insane heat, very hard to hold out (and I am used to Spanish heat). The old prison… Continue reading »
So, the heat is officially killing me. And we’re not even yet in summer. Taipei zoo was great and the entrance is really cheap (less than 1€), but crowded, noisy, harsh sloping (going up). It was complicated to take pictures without the crowd all arround. One thing was quite shocking: once you pass the entrance… Continue reading »
Going to Beitou Hot Spring when the heat is killing you outisde, is the dumbest thing one can do in Taipei. Taipei is already so polluted, it’s painful to breathe. So, just don’t go there, unless it’s freezing oustide! Totally hot as hell. That’s right, boiling water! On the Way : Plum Garden. Leave a… Continue reading »
