Yes. The charges really overated. Basiclly it's a place to gain some experience.
But since Malaysia doesn't own one. Once for a while, doesnt matter i believe

Ouch~ next Monday. It's little hot at Taiwan now.
But if not mistaken, there was Earthquake yesterday near HUA LIAN, East Taiwan.

my friend just got back on monday, she said the weather had turned cooler dy....hualien is quite far away from jiu fen

Starting October, Taipei will become colder.
Typically the weather is the hottest around July.

Last year October, i was at Taipei for a while. The temperature there is still very hot, and dry too! If memory serve me well, it was 30C

furthermore, this year the climate has change alot, i guess November will be hot too

Taiwan weather very siao wan...When i was there mid Dec 2009, I was shock when I arrived at Taoyuan airport and temperature showing 26C..damn..so hot wan

Yup, you cant cover all in 8 days. I followed those 8 days whole island and deeply regret. Half of us (of a total 11 members) did not enjoy the trip at all. We came back not refreshed but damn tiring.

Budget needed to go taiwan? 7 days 6 nights...

Deduct hotels and transport, basic necessities should not be more than TWD 5k.
I tried 10 days/9 nights in Taipei, spent less than TWD 3k on eating.

How low can the airasia ticket promo can go? Right now they having sales for like rm224 one way without tax and stuffs, can it get lower in other promo?

To get really low promo is not easy...You need to wait for next AAX sales (Not Air Asia sales)...Last year without fuel surcharge, ppl been getting RETURN ticket at ~ RM250 Inclusive of tax!..After the fuel surcharge announcement, The cheapest probably ~ RM400 inc of Tax + Fuel surcharge

Any1 went to Window on China or Doraemon Park before? Worth to visit? Can advice how to go there? Thanks

anyone tried the 'stinky tofu' from taiwan before? i heard ppl said that the smell is horrible but the taste veri nice..feels like trying it, but then my parents told me it's dirty

Very mellow-lah..Even KL stinky tofu worst than Taiwan...I dun feel disgusting at all and the smell not like 1 km away..HK stinky tofu worst than Taipei

If you want to know how they make stinky tofu, goto youtube and watch the episode where Andre zimmern vommited trying the tofu.. haha
