A visit to Neiwan in april 2017
I met up with my dear Taidong friend Bojun recently
We were about to go to Taidong, but decided to visit Neiwan instead, in Hsinchu
We took Howtai bus
I passed by a resturant where i made a mark on the wall 5 years ago, i wonder if the mark is still there...
We also passed by the DJ club in NCTU campus...which is empty, since they closed it...I wonder where the equipment is now...
Next stop was Nola cafe, after spending 5 minutes looking for a geocache...
I had an expensive but pretty good peanut chocolate drink...
We later on headed to the light rail station, aiming for Neiwan
They promote people to stop phubbing
Some rail map...
Omg, an inside rooster decoration
It was a nice day...I was listening to Kygo with Raging on the platform...
Later we got on the train...and the rural landscape passed us by
Rice field with Jhubei in the background
And some delta...which is dry...
It was pretty cold inside the train...as usualy they have very strong AC, even if its not even warm outside...
In Neiwan old street there were plenty with people
It is a mountains village, famous for gocart, nightmarket and hotspring, i think they also have some paintball arena...
They had an intersction with 4 police ioficers trying to manage the traffic...when thousands of tais coming and visiting...
I found some aboriginal poster
We aimed to pass this bridge to get to some hotspring
Omg...a taiwanese camping..feels almost like in europe...
The hotspring was expensive and not public...instead i found some cool houses...
Road 3 passes by here...or atleast in the nearby area...
I also had some local pancae from some beinan aboriginal...who lived in taipei for 30 years and then decided to move to neiwan...i think he was raised in hsinchu area...
Some trian map...
I also found some xiaomijiu...which i decided to buy...
We also paid 200nt to some local for him driving us to a public spa...which later on turned out to be a misstake. since the public spa offer free pickup from neiwan station...
He was over 70 years old and also ued to live in taipei...
This was his car...
It was an intense drive...but very local....
We were dropped of at a nreaby SPA...with Atayal aboriginals at the reception...
They also had birds at the entrace....chains to some branches...
We had to buy swim caps...
They had plenty of temperatures in the pools, but wenever found anyone that was perfect...either to warm ot too cold...so we had to move inbetween them
Afterwards the Atayal girls taught us some local language, while helping us back to neiwan
This was our driver bacck to neiwan station
We also saw some cool bridge...
The driver even went up on the night market road...but we asked to be dropped of earlier...
Jsut to get some more local food
Bojun wanted to try the Beinans food again
We had some fried panncake...
The trian left neiwan every house...pretty easy to remember...
The local train...i think it wasnt electrical...
I also had some taiwna beer with my fried panncake
Neiwan station...its not too long ago this light rail was built...i think it has made a great impact on the tourism here...reducing the car traffic...
We also passed by some food forest in central Hsinchu...
REminds me of sweden where people harvest vegetables in the city area...2017 continues...
