Taiwan...Places !...Food !

Taiwan


So near...yet so far !

I have xplored many places and this is one of the destination I have neglected....maybe, coz many had went and not much commentaries from them,..."ok loh"..."not much sight seeing"...food...ok,..ok only loh !

To my surprise ! It's a MUST...MUST...destination ! The places, the culture, the food...bits resemble the Japanese...and the Chinese. Talking about food, the Taiwanese are creative and bold with their food...not to mention...exotic !

Check out the first part of Taiwan..."Places"
