Hi, May I know why avoid Monday to Wu Fen Pu? And does ppl normally bargain there? Thanks. QUOTE(Serendipity123 @ Mar 7 2013, 10:55 AM) To the ladies, If you like fashion bags, do remember to drop by Skyblue's (天藍小舖 ) shops in Shida Night Market and Shilin Night Market. Not forgetting PG美人网 shop at Raohe Market. Leggings and pantyhose are also cheap!!! I bought my 180D/200D korean style pantyhose at only NT50 and NT100! And if you need more luggage bags, you can get the normal ones (no trolley) for NT50 at Danshui Old Street. IMHO, I think the stuffs at Xi Men Ding are much more expensive than other places (or night markets) in Taipei. If you want clothes, go to WuFenPu (avoid Mondays). If you want shoes and bags, go to the night markets. Have fun shopping! |

Do you think I should stay at Airport hotel for a night? or should I overnight at Taipei? Looking for cost saving method btw could you comment on my itinerary? and is it all the hostel normally outside the town? because 7 of us are going :/ so i guess the best will be hostel to save some money! thx!!

I'm planning to go Taiwan jalan2 with family as well, I notice you guys mostly go alone without following a tour, I would like to know how do you guys manage by going around places? And how to plan for places to stay?
I been searching around for tour package, but couldn't find a suitable one.
Let say we bought the flight ticket over there & once get there only start looking for hotel, is that possible? Just worry all are fully occupy.

I dont think its a good idea to find hotel there where you could actually booked it in agoda/booking.com to save the hassle. You are travelling with you family so you want to do the least hassle and trouble. When I travel, i travel with my gf so we can discover and make it more like an adventure instead of going by tour where we would take the road least taken by tourist. But again if you travel with your family i dont advice you to do that. Travelling in Taiwan can be done by mrt hsr and taxi. |
