Taiwan Day 5 : Shih Fen Scenic Area

So continuing from the previous post,after the long ride of train to Shih Fen,we are finally here! It’s quite a long walk to get to the waterfall actually. Right after the train station there’s a long street of stalls selling some snacks and the ‘sky lantern’. I don’t know if that’s the right term for it. But there will be many people there lighting the lantern. Especially pretty at night. If I did not remember wrongly,it cost NT100 for the plain coloured ones,NT150 for mixed coloured ones.After you cross that long street then you still have to cover quite a long walk before you get to the waterfall. Just follow the crowded,everyone who is going there is heading the same place. Haha!
I was having a bad flu that day,I was sneezing so much,plus walking so much,starving like mad by the time we reach the waterfall. Luckily there was a cafe at the waterfall that I could grab a set meal like this!Tadah! We’re finally here!Pretty! But still not as magnificent as I thought it was suppose to be.
I so love my stripey dress I got from the night market. This was apparently the only piece of clothing I got there. So I dont think it’s a shopping paradise there (at least for me). Oh but i did got few pairs of shoes! This is the ‘tian deng’ shop we went to! (Sky latern)It’s called Ah-ma tian deng. Nothing special I guess,every shop is the same. Just that this wasnt so crowded when we were there,so we chose this.We saw this BBQ drumstick with stuff rice,so my boy was like MUST TRY!
Before biting! After biting! See the stuffed rice! I think it’s okay,not too bad,but my boy was so crazy over it. haha.There were 2 kind of writing,either with marker (modern method) or with brush (traditional method). So if you’re interested in any particular type,you may wanna check properly before you choose the shop. We chose the marker one! AND we wrote everything in CHINESE ok! Later the person brought us to the train tracks,there was when we light up our lantern and let it fly away~ It’s quite fun Can try it!
