My Taipei Trip - Day 5

Time flies very fast. It's our Day 5 in Taipei now. Day 5 is a very tiring day as the schedule was quite tight. We woke up early in the morning just wanna catch up our public transportation to visit the places that have planned earlier on.
----
----
We took MRT to SOGO then we waited for the Bus to Jin Gua Shi (金瓜石). There were lots of tourists from everywhere also taking the same transport as both of us. We sam some Japanese, some Hong Kees...and etc.

Finally, we arrived at Gold Ecological Park （黄金博物馆）. One of the tourist attraction in Taipei. MUST Go!!
-----

At the entrance of Gold Ecological Park. A lots of students on that day to pay a visit here.
-----Then, please go to Tourist Information Centre （旅客服务中心） to take your map for your visit. It's quite a huge place.
------

Then, our first point - Living Art Experience Workshop. These are the real sample of dormitories for the high-level staff at previous time. Pay a visit inside the dormitory, you can see and experience lots of the things that they used last time.

------

Stone?? Do not think these are the common stones, there are gold and copper stones in Taiwan.
----

Can you see the gold background? It's glittering.
-------

And, finally we arrived the Ben Mu Wu Keng （本木五坑）. A must visit place when you are at Gold Ecological Park.
--------
The model looks so real, it's a fake people actually.

-------

We walked through the long railway to visit all the places inside.
------

One of the stop point to show the previous working lifestyle.
-----

Another stop point - Resting Zone.

-------

After our visit to Gold Ecological Park, then we took a bus to our next point, JIU FEN. I like this place so much.

------

Finally, we reached Jiu Fen　（九份）. A very nice place, I likve this place so much. I can see lots of things here. MUST GO although it's quite far from Taipei town!!!

-------

The best Fen Yuan Bing （粉圆冰） in Taipei. I tell you. It's damn tasty. I can't forget how tasty it is. THUMB UP!!!!!
------

A very unique food in Jiu fen. Taste very nice too. It's called Peanut Ice-Cream Roll (花生卷冰淇淋）.

------

The very unique and fashionable Ladyboss who is selling various kind of balls (I mean fishballs and others, ok?). LOL...Don't play play. Jacky Wu them ever visited her stall as well.
------

Oh..this is nice. But, sorry I forgotten what is it called already. But, when you are at Jiu Fen and see this, must try!!

-----

One of the Taiwan local food, I bought this for souveniers as well. Personally, I don't think it's very nice. Sorry!

-------

And, the Mua Chi for souveniers too. ^^

------

And, this Taiwan Red-pulp Guava fruit, I personally highly recommended. IT TASTES DAMN GOOD!!! Love this food very much, but it's not cheap. LOL...
-------
The view of Jiu Fen. Nice!!! This place definitely can relax our mind.

----
-----

After our visit to Jiu Fen, then we took bus and move to another stop point, Ji Long Miao Kou, one of the night market in Taipei.

------

At the main entrance of Ji Long Miao Kou （基隆庙口）, we found these. A kind of biscuits, Shan Dong Gong Zi Tou　（山东貢子头）, NT10 each. Sorry!!! It doesn't taste nice, it's too hard for me.

-----

The street of Ji Long Miao Kou night market. Lots of Tang Lung along the street.
-----

The nice temple at Ji Long Miao Kou.
------

Due to the tiredness for our whole day trip, we decided to sit down and take some nice cold drinks.

--------

The cold drinks are nice. These are from a cold drink shop called Three Brothers （三兄弟）.

------

And, kimGo found this, Zhu Jiao Tang （猪脚汤）. Tasty!!! ^^

------

I LOVE THIS, Rou Yuan （肉圆）. It's round and big. LOL....damn delicious. Drooling for this!!!

------

Yi Kou Chi Xiang Chang （一口吃香肠）. Taste not bad too. ^^
------

-------

Highly recommended to the Nutritious Sandwiches （营养三明治） here. It's not just a simple sandwich, it contains lots of ingredients and nutrients, it taste very good too. Try it!!!

-----

kimGo loves the seafood barbeque, it's huge but it's not cheap also. But, it tastes nice. You can give a try too.

------
------

After this, we went to the Bus Terminal at Ji Long and bought the bus tickets to return to Taipei city. I think it takes almost 1 hr to reach Taipei. I was fall asleep in the bus due to my tiredness. But, it was a very memorable trip today.

-----
-----

When we arrived Taipei city, we do not wish to go back to our hotel too early. So, we back to the Shi Lin Night Market again to fight for our dinner. LOL.

------
kimGo bought a Bing Tang Hu Lu （冰糖葫芦） outside the Shi Lin Night Market （士林夜市）. Always watch from the TV and this is our first time to try the real one. Ermmm....anyway, I do not like it. :p　
------See!!! I didn't cheat you for the long queue that you can found for buying a Big Chicken Chop （大鸡排）. The famous food in Shi Lin Night Market, must give a try, And, of cause, it tastes good. :)
------

And, kimGo tried this, O Ah Mian Xian （蚵仔面线）. Taste not bad too.

-----

kimGo tried this too, Soup of Shi Quan Pai Gu （十全排骨大补汤）. THUMB UP!!!! Delicious!!!
-----

Then, we went to one small Japanese stall at the back of Shi Lin Night Market to try out the various kind of Mua Ji.
-----

--

We have tried different taste of the Mua Ji. Taste not bad too.

-----

And, we fond this stall, ever broadcasted on a Taiwan show about the Fishballs (鱼蛋). Got different typed of taste, you can give a try because we never can taste some of the taste in Malaysia. For me, I think it's ok only. Nothing so special for me. :p
------

The famous Fishballs.
-----
------

After that, we went back to our hotel. Damn full!!!!
----
-----
And, back to hotel, I started to count all the souveniers that I have bought. Not that much I think, because it's not very cheap. :p
----

I love these. LOL!!!! Found these at Jiu Fen. The sexual position key chains, very unique. Hahaha. These keychains we mostly will give to some of our male friends. Hope they like it.
------

The Mua Ji, Pineapple Pies （凤梨酥） and 3 diffrent kind of tea from Jiu Fen.
------

The handmade egg rollsｖ（手工蛋卷） from Jiu Fen. Nice!!! The packaging also nice.
------

The Iron Egg　（铁蛋） and some nice candy from Jiu Fen.
