Taiwan trip

A few days ago, Weibo and WeChat Moments went viral because of a news

Several friends told me: " I really envy you for catching the last train. "

Some friends also regretted not being able to go earlier.

Actually, I have no special plans for my graduation trip.

I don’t know when everyone started talking about going to Taiwan for their graduation trip.

(Maybe it’s because when I first came to Beijing, I was always spoken to with a Taiwanese accent 😂

(It turns out this is a journey to find your roots ᶘ ᵒᴥᵒᶅ

So after finishing the defense, I set off with my friends.

We booked air tickets with Air Macau in April, 1k4 round trip from Beijing to Taipei. We had to transfer, so it was cheaper. (It was my first time to spend the night at the airport...it felt very cold.) When we flew to Taipei, we were unable to land due to heavy rain, so we transferred to Kaohsiung. One lap... Finally, after all the twists and turns, we landed in Taipei City.

"

 

The airbnb I booked is in Ximending. The transportation is very convenient. You can just go downstairs and start shopping!

"

Finally had the legendary Oyster (o) Omelette (a) Omelette!

Very fresh and delicious😋

The good thing about Taiwan is that the food is safer than in mainland China, the ingredients are obviously fresher, and you won’t have diarrhea at all during these few days of travel.

A bloody lesson - it’s best not to order two portions of something in Taiwan, one portion is enough for two girls! We live in regret every day...

Do you want to visit the moon
101 is that enough?

 

——No need to ask! It’s really not enough!

Taipei-Hualien

It takes about three hours to take the Taiwan Railway from Taipei to Hualien. After all, it is still a subtropical region. The scenery along the way is similar to that of Guangxi. There is a section of scenery along the coastline that is not bad.

Next comes the highlight of the entire trip - going out to sea to watch whales.

"

 

Tour boats of all sizes are approaching the dolphins. I don’t know if people are watching whales and dolphins or they are watching us?

"

"

 

Finally captured it! !

"

 

No whales were seen, so we said goodbye to the dolphins and set off.

 

This is the attraction I had the highest expectations for before departure - Qingshui Cliff

But when I actually saw it——

"Oh, not bad, that's what it is"

 

"

 

The most amazing thing is that I happened to meet this train when passing by. An uncle next to me said that he had come many times to wait for this train to pass by.

Think about it, I'm quite lucky.

(This is the second time this year that I have photographed a train.

"

 

 

 

If you just look at the picture above, can you tell what attraction it is?

In fact, this is... the famous Qixingtan

Before I came here, I always thought that there were piles of natural stones like this everywhere.

Later...ಠ_ಠ

I just realized that everyone stacked them up themselves...

 

After checking in the Starbucks container... our one-day trip to Hualien is over👋

P.S. The stuffed rice balls are really good! The caramel is not sweet, but has a slightly bitter taste, which feels very authentic~

The boss also gave us a small pendant~

 

 

Hualien-Kenting

"

 

I'm in Kenting and it's rainy

"

It rained heavily all the way from Hualien to Kenting⛈️

The single "Exit of Coastal Highway" is playing in my head🎵

When the driver was on the phone, he told others: "I sailed for a whole day today." &¥*%¥…@#%

 

So when we arrived in Kenting in the evening,

It's still raining lightly

It’s still a long way from the B&B to Kenting Street.

Too lazy to wait for the elusive bus,

We were just going to walk there ourselves.

Who would have thought that half the way...

They are all cemeteries👋

We are the only two pedestrians on the road

I had no choice but to sing the Mayday song loudly to embolden myself

(I don’t understand why either⬆️

 

(I remember during the exchange, when I went back to the dormitory with Linshuo after shopping in the supermarket,

I pointed to the cemetery on the roadside and said to her, look!

She said "Mom" and started running wildly...

 

Kenting is a place where the pace of life is very slow.

People here sleep until ten or eleven o'clock before getting up and starting work

At eight or nine o'clock in the evening, there was no one on the street.

The sea breeze blows and the cat's life is really pleasant.

It is said to have attracted quite a few tourists from Hong Kong...

The southernmost point of land👆

 

"

 

Eluanbi Park👆

In fact, lighthouses are really similar.

The decoration here has a bit of Greek style

 

According to historical records, the Eluanbi Lighthouse was built by the Qing government to prevent foreigners from running aground on rocks in southern Taiwan and causing trouble. It is a famous historical monument. It was once considered the southernmost landmark in Taiwan, but was later replaced by the southernmost landmark in Taiwan (shown above).

"

Later we went to Maobitou Park

Mao Bi Tou didn't see it, but he saw a real cat

Kenting’s highlight moment – ​​White Beach

Cape No. 7,

Life of Pi

All shot here

It's a really beautiful beach

"Shadows of coconut trees, clear water and young sand"

 

This is it!

 

“Seeing is worth hearing a hundred times”

The Taiwan that only exists in textbooks, the Taiwan that only appears in those classic Taiwanese dramas in my memory, the Taiwan that only appears in "Cross the Strait"...

After a trip, I met many very enthusiastic Taiwanese people.

When asking for directions, they will even lead you to where you are looking.

I have also met many people who call themselves “country” and “citizens”.

We also see their so-called "democracy",

Probably there are promotional photos of congressmen on every taxi on every street.

They don’t know yet that the mainland has already made a lot of progress.

Taipei City is really not as developed as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou.

We also don’t know about their strict supervision of food safety.

Eating in Taiwan is really reassuring.

In fact, neither side of the Taiwan Strait really understands each other, and there are many misunderstandings.

I just hope that one day, Taiwan will return in a real sense and there will no longer be so many misunderstandings.

 

(At the end of writing, I really want to drink a few more cups of milk tea!
