    Off The Beaten Path: Guard-Switching
  • Tip Rating:
  • Well, just like any other country, in CKS memorial hall, provost guard switch hourly. I think Taiwanese provost guard is well-trained and quite nice to see their performance. ( Although this is a serious situation. )
    Next time, you visit Taipei, just take MRT to CKS Memorial Hall station, besides seeing magnificant Chinese architecture, please enjoy our provost guard-switching.

    Off The Beaten Path: Bali in Taipei
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Cycling in Taipei...
    There are few places Taipeians go on the weekends: Danshui, Yangmingshan, Bali, and Jiofen. Thanks to MRT Danshui line, a small township across river find its on way to prosperity after being silent for centries, and it is Bali. (Ba1 Li3) This place is famous for its local snack like fish ball, plum juice, fried calamary and so on. Take a ferry from Danshui Quay and pay NT40, you can enjoy your trip here. This is one of few places where you can cycle near Taipei. Roads are flat, scenery is good, alongside the road, there are also a lot of activities to do, such as paint ball. Or ypu can make a short trip to Shi-san-hang Anthropology Museum.
    Take MRT to Danshiu Station, the terminal station, take a ferry, within an hour, you are there from downtown Taipei.
