20111215 from Lukang鹿港 to Wulai乌来 to Taipei台北

The day started with the longest bus journey of the trip. It took us more than 3 hours before arriving at the Wulai waterfall. It sat at about 700 metres above sea level. It's considered a beautiful scene at the countryside.


Then we took the mini (really mini) train for a distance that brought us to another old street before boarding the bus to continue the journey to Taipei. The touhuay we had was pretty nice; similarly, the grilled chicken meat :)




Lunch was at the 五角船板at Taipei, a restaurant built with an interesting concept. I think we spent almost equal amount of time taking photos and eating in this restaurant.

We proceeded to the Pixiu 貔貅shop where we learnt a little bit of the fengshui stuff. Learnt that 貔貅, which was supposedly the youngest child of the dragon king didn't come with a tail, and the male one (i.e. 貔貅) came with a horn and was meant for human residence whereas the female 辟邪was meant for the tombs.

We had dinner at Ximending西门町. There was not much change since I last visited the place, a busy place largely made up of youngsters and tourists.
