hi sifu ,

One is based on Xi Men Ding , another one is based in Kunming

Which one is more cheaper if I take bus to another area?

Plus anyone got went to Wulai b4?
tx

Hi sifu,

My trip is on April

1st day arrive at Tao Yuen Airport -3pm check in hotel and plan to rest & walk around only

2nd day- Jiu Fern whole day

3rd  day -Wulai also whole day

4th day - Taipei 101 /nite shilin market

5th-9th day onwards during day time where else to visit

Wu Fen Pu open from 3 pm. But don't go on Monday.

Money changers in airport accept most currencies.

If u wanna change SGD in Taipei city, u can do it at ShinKong Mitsukoshi (新光三越) of Taipei Main Station, just that the rate is kinda low.

my trip is from 22-29april.

i reach taiwan on 22paril morning. then straight go hualien. (stay 1night)
23 will be in hualien (cover chingshui cliff & taroko park)
24 go to cing jing from hualien (1night in cing jing)
25 go to sun moon lake from cing jing (1night in sun moon lake)
26 go to taichung from sun moon lake. taichung back taipei
27 go to yeliu. covered jiu fen/jin guashi/keelung
28-29 taipei area covered beitou hotspring/yangminshan/ximenting
30 back msia from taiwan

any comment?

yeh liu and jiufen is both different places. u can complete with public transport bus (need change bus) in one whole day. but it will be a bit rush and u need to plan ur time accordingly

i prefer to have the following:-

yeh liu + other places in taipei
jiufen/jinguashi/shifen

this is based on my research only. after my trip i can give more opinions

Back from Taipei. Slight rain everyday but for a short period. So just bring a small umbrella wherever you go. Wufenpu was awesome for my gf as she bought like dont know how many of kg baju, accessories and facial mask(in ximending). Lucky never over weight for our luggage. Hahah

I don't think u can request for seat number. It's auto allocated to u. Depends on ur luck lah, hope u get the seat on the left side. The seats are facing front.
The Taiwanese are very disciplined type. They sit according to their seat number, won't simply sit other ppl's place.
Last time I went, I got the seat on the left & hubby on the right. Lucky no one seating next to me so I ask hubby to sit lor.
Btw, even if u buy 2 tics online at the same time, the seat no. allocated to u could be different too. Not necessarily next to each other.

Hi hi,

Me now at Starvilla Cinjing. Good place, just went for watch star. The owner guide us to their roof top, using his laser pointer explain what start and how to see start. Lucky me today,  saw shooting star . The owner quite friendly, you can go there and ask for those e-go bus arrangement, he will help to book and pay to him, no worry.

I book for a day trip from Taichung to SML, 3500 NT. I think is standard price. I sit on mazda 5 same as wish. But his car is ford not mazda, according to him. Ford and mazda same.

ya, that time was perfect timing as 3 season flowers are bloomed.. (Y) just that sakura a little coz just begin to bloom~ makes me want to go taiwan again~
