Taiwan Sightseeing Part 1 @ Taipei, Taiwan

Taiwan's buses mostly fitted with LED panels which display the next stop name and announcing the stop just before arriving. I find this very useful especially for visitor like me. Good job! When can Malaysia have this? Learn up Rapid KL or Rapid Penang.

Entrace of a charge per entry park outside of national palace museum. But it is free if you purchased the museum ticket.

Hungry fishes awaiting for food. Wah.. what a big mouth.

A scene in the park.

Martyr Shine which houses the soul lost during Taiwan battle. Guards here are changed every hour.

Guards marching.

Some performance during changing guard.

Main Martyr Shine complex.

War in Taiwan.

Ultra nice meal in Momo Paradise @ Neo19, Taipei

Here is a statue of liberty in the middle of Taipei. The shopping centre behind it is called New York New York.

Next to New York x2, lies the Neo19 shopping centre where Momo Paradise is located. Momo paradise is a shabu-shabu (dip wok) based restaurant. Here it is all you can eat concept.

Inside momo paradise. It even has a chart to show various parts of a cow.

Ultra tender beef. I am not a fan of beef at all, but this is so irresistable. I ended up coming to this restaurant twice in my short trip.

Runner-up is the pork sliced so thin that it just cooked in seconds after putting into the boiling soup.

Miso based soup with lots of veges.

Momo paradise.

Fireworks Scene @ Hong Kong Disneyland
