North of TaiPei

Visiting Taiwan at different season will have different attraction to go... we have opportunity to visit flower season at Mountain Yang Ming 阳明山... a garden with pretty flower blossom, but poor me, not manage to shoot a lot nice photo.... at least... let me share this decoration at the entrance of garden.. Composed with real flower...

Route today mainly to cover North West of Taipei, after Mountain Yang Ming, another side of mountain is this area where grow a lot Calla Lilly 海芋花海, many local normally come here to buy some as decoration at home. 

After this flowery morning, we have our lunch at Jin Meng 庙口,famous for duck meal... serving method here is self service, cook will serve all dish in standard size, you just choose what you want, except for noodle, you can choose small, medium and large, hence, you go in group, this shall not be problem... but if you go with less than 3 person, you need to eat a lot.... 

On the way to Dan Shui, we stop by at this wind mill station... first time for us to stand so close to wind mill....

Yu Ren Jetty, 渔人码头, well developed tourism spot, and suppose to be a romantic spot, but is raining when we arrive this place.... so end with some running, fight with wind and buy some local delicious....

Old street of Dan Shui, 淡水老街, we buy some Tie Tan, 铁蛋, where egg gone through multiple round of  marinating... i like it, but many don't like it... fish cookies here also taste nice... good to buy back Malaysia as gift....

Last stop of the day is Shih Ling Night Market 士林夜市 for our dinner.... huge crowded... Feel bit paise to senior of my trip... but i think this should be nice experience for them to have backpacking... hehe...

My favourite is this chicken chop... for my last 4 night at Taiwan trip... my supper is this!!
