Quote from Trip Advisor and other websites :
Monday is reserved for wholesalers, even though you still can go, but may not get services as good as usual.

Wu Fen Pu is a wholesale garment market and have food as well. I think someone posted here their pictures which is near Raohe nightmarket as well. So can do both at the same time

I'm staying in XMD as well. So I think the distance would be 15 minutes by MRT and walking there should be 5 minutes if I'm not mistaken

I'm not sure I can post links here but you can do this
Taipei > Yehliu > Jinguashih > Jiufen > Keelung Miaokou > Taipei

Im taking the bus to taipei main station n from there i will actually buy the ez card and of course familiarise with myself on the mrt system. In Korea being in their main station was confusing at first and i naturally grasp the system there. So im also doing it in Taiwan as well.

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.
