There really is no place like Taiwan

Route : Kaohsiung, Tainan, Alishan
Usual suspects : Me, Rach & Daryl
Days of escape : 5 days

Kaoshiung Highlights:
 1. Night markets- Liu He night market near our hostel, Walking story
2. Bubble tea
 3. Pier 2 Art District

 4. Beautiful & vast Lotus pond

5. Best of all, renting the bicycles and zig-zagging throughout Kaohsiung! Cheapest and most fun way of exploring (and getting lost) in the city!

Tainan
Again, visit the many night markets! There is one for every day! Our hostel Iris tower gave us a list of markets



Oyster pancake!!
Must cycle & explore Anping district which used to be a Dutch settlement, now a vibrant fisherman town
Try the food there too!
Confuscious temple
Alishan
Mountainous & Breathtaking

Stay at Lauya Guesthouse, you won't regret it! Their service is one of a kind! Two thumbs up!

Go hiking

Search & marvel at the giant billions of years old trees!
Watch the Yuyupas clan perform and reenact their history at their tea plantation

Watch the sunrise...
