Day 3
National Taiwan University
Upon roaming around in this huge university it reminds me of my beloved alma mater De La Salle University - Dasmarinas. Both are famous of school film shooting location, huge, lots of trees, lots of students (of course!) and both had man made lake inside the university.
Address: No. 1, Section 4, Roosevelt Rd, Da’an District, Taipei City, Taiwan 10617

While in the university, we tried this "student" meal. Its a mixed of fried chicken and pork with veggies.
I must say that its affordable and really a huge serving.
Pag student ata dapat madami kinakain hahahah |

Taipei 101
We went here to buy last minute pasalubong of the famous nougat and the name of the brand is "Sugar and Spice". We are looking for that brand since our day 1 but there is no in ximending area and in any night market. We try our luck here in Taipei 101 and bought it.

NB. Rude Chinese tourist
As a Filipino tourist we respect the culture of other countries because its their norms. While we are in Longshan temple, some rude Chinese tourist didn't respect the temple. There is a group of old Chinese tourist ladies that eating the "offering" in the praying area. They are taking it and keeps on eating the offers in every table. We are not a Buddhist and we respect the temple BUT those Chinese tourist are so so so rude! Tanda tanda na di alam ano ibig sabihin ng mga offerings. tsss
Taipei Huaxi st. Tourust Night Market
Just beside longshan temple there is another night market. We also went there to stroll and bought some pasalubong.
MRT Taipei to Taoyuan Airport
The best way to get from Taipei to Taoyuan Airport is to take an express airport bus near Taipei Main station. Definitely it is the fastest way to reach the airport taking only 35 minutes from Taipei Main Station to both Terminal 1 and Terminal 2. NTD 160

| We tried the express train from Taipei main station to Taoyuan airport. |

NB.
Although, taiwan is not popular place for tourist destination, I still want to visit again this country, there is a lot of place to visit within Taipei like in Tamsui. I wish I stay longer for this trip. Didn't expect the rainy weather huhuhu. Our schedule in Day 1 had stopped and become limited because its really raining and we don't have enough sleep that time. I'm still proud for my self, Kat and ate allen for the successful trip.
