Day 10 in Taiwan - 台北


It is chilly today. The plan is to go to the Taipei Zoo in the morning and then make our way to do some shopping at 五分埔. The Taipei Zoo is interesting only for the pandas 团团圆圆. This is our first encounter with a real life panda!

We had lunch at 五分埔 and then did some shopping there. 五分埔 is an area in Taipei that is well known for selling clothes wholesale. Ben and I each bought some tops and we also bought some for the girls as they have run out of them. The clothes are not that cheap though especially if they are imported from Korea.

After that, we took the 捷运 (Taiwanese equivalent of our MRT) to meet Uncle Teddy at the famous 士林夜市. That place is huge and crowded as it was a Friday night. By then, we were all tired and cold (only 15 degrees celsius) so we didn't walk around too much.
