We join toilet enthusiasts for a crappy lunch, before scooting away to shop at the largest
wholesale garment market. We then go back in time to visit Taipei in the 1960s, stand in line to
see the meat-shaped stone, and wander the night market to buy miniature burgers.
We jump into steaming green sulphur pools, ride the world's fastest elevator, and pretend to be
superheroes. You can stamp your name, eat in someone else's car, and if you are truly brave,
order a cup of venom at Snake's Alley.
We visit Taiwan's miniature Niagara Falls, trek alongside tea plantations and historical relics, and
drop by one of the oldest temples in the city. Then we walk through Taiwan's history, peer at the
former president's house, see the largest pipe organ, and schedule an appointment for chest x-ray
and dinner at the hospital.
We sneak into a Japanese village with ninjas, and buy character memorabilia using our children
as the excuse. Come evening, we hitch a ride to the harbour, stroll down Valentine's Bridge, and
fill our rumbling stomachs at the largest and most famous street-level night market.
We ride the gondola over the lush forests, have tea with the famous white bob-tailed cat, and
satisfy our sweet tooth. Then we get hot and dirty in the workshop, gawk at collections of strange
and incredible exhibits, and visit one of the earliest tea houses in the region.
We visit the mecca for youth culture, calligraph an auspicious name for good luck, sit down for anelaborate feast fit for a king and bite into miniature works of art. Then we traverse different parts of the world, see the Phantom, snack on iron eggs, and solve the mystery of where the postcardviews of Taipei 101 are taken.
We head to the sulphuric Hell Valley, walk into a cloud of hot steam, and tuck into a sumptuous
meal of tea dishes under the moon. Then we visit the giant pandas, chuckle at monkey antics, and
follow the celebrities in their quest for youthfulness by downing the prized pork spine soup.
We visit the public market that became a historic theatre, purchase spray paint art, and browse
products designed by local brands under incubation. Then we test the radioactivity of Hokutolite,
book into the lavish hotel where nobody needs to know who you are, and share a bowl of the most
expensive beef noodles in the world.
