Arrived in Taiwan around 5am? Well close to 6am.. But anyway, we had to wait for transport (the mini van my cousin hired to bring us around everyday) so we waited at this waiting area with special ports just to charge your phone!
Okay I should say smth before I start. I don't really know the places that well because there was no tour guide to tell us the history of the place in detail or what exactly is the place for.. So im gonna use what I remember and prolly google!
First stop: Cihu
Well as you can see, there're many statues of different men and they're prolly those important men in Taiwan that held important positions to lead the country decades ago! This place is something like a memorial park for all these people. Like prime ministers and so on.
Entering a late prime minister's house! It's been turned into a museum. I think his body is really mummified in the coffin kept in there but photos weren't allowed. Only could look at the coffin standing outside the room ._.
This marching routine, they do it every morning. I think its like paying respects to the late prime minister or something? There are two metal platforms right at the entrance, one on each side for them to stand there and guard the WHOLE day. If you scroll up to look at the pic of the entrance you'll see 2 square platforms ^^^^
2nd stop: Somewhere with pretty flowers
Sorry for the spam of pink flowers but... I love pink and I love flowers so its a bonus for me ;-;

Was a filming site for this drama ^^^
Authentic chinese sausages UGH FINALLY :'))) Miss it so badly, luckily im going back there soon!
DIY portion the chicken while it's hot
3rd stop: Carton King
Absolutely love this place! Too cute! Everything is really made out of carton/cardboard

Absolutely love this night market because its super big, so much food to try and so many things to shop! No kidding!
