A visit to Taizhong
I paid a short visit to Taizhong some day ago...
Taking high speed rail to save some time...
This is the downtown for taizhong...
My guide telling me which areas are the richest...
And which car thats most common...
Some Taizhong style building...
And some mall that no one wants...(ghost house?)...
...they also have interesting architecture...
This is said to be a nice downtown bar area...
Omg...we also passed the burgerbar I went to last time i was here...
We also passed some random teastore...
It was pretty nice...like in ximen...but up among the roof tops...
We got some green tea...
Omg many kinds of drinks...
And a huge flipflop...
They also had a robot cafe...
And some mall with real bushes on the wall...
And a T-shirt of china...hmm...not that popular here...
More drinks...
And Le ble d´or...awesome...they have 2 stores here in Taizhong...
Tey also had some outside book place...it reminded me ot bockenheim in frankfurt...where they had a shelf for people to take a book and leave another...
And some tetrapack expo...
Not sure why they had this...
And a car expo...
This place was famous for the cheese cake...
Not sure why...
And some cheese ice cream...
Later on we went to this all u can eat...
It was in the very center of taizhong...
We ordered many dishes...but I went all in on sweet and sour sauce and deep fried things...
This was the dessert...corn and sweet potato...
Omg...the standard fee for taxi is 85 here...
This old japanese bank is nowadays an ice cream store...
In the vault they make waffles...
And on th etop floor they sell chocolate...
They had like 60 flavours...atleast...
Hard to chose...
I just picked randomly...
The result...
Many houses here were pretty old (for beeing taiwan)...
I even got a gift...
Next stop was a wine bar...
With a tiger at the entrance...
They tried to keep high class...
But every drink i asked for they said "we dont have"...even he beer..."they dont have":..
Some girl also came to us to sell perfumes...interesting sales tactic...(in the wine bar)...
My friend Rosario hosted me...he had an interesting house...with many paintings...
And nice coffee...
Omg a military...
We went north the second day to pick mushrooms...
At some farm...
Not sure which kind...but it seemed typical taiwanese...
They were growing in bags...
It seemed to be a mushroom area...
Some mushrooms were very expensive...
We also picked some...
Pink mushroom...
Yellow mushroom...
"Tips for picking mushrooms"...
And a mushroom list...
And different mushroom flavours...wasabi, soy, neutral etc...
Nest stop was an organic farm...
They picked some things for us...
We had some tea...
And then it was our turn to pick...
It seemed easy...
Lemons...the new gold of taiwan...many beetlenut farmers change their binlang-trees to lemon trees, due to that they eaern more money from lemons...
Omg...they used extra sleeves to protet from light...not sure why they have lights at home...when they are afraid of it...
A quick stop to a mango stop...
Many houses up here were for sale...
Next stop some old tea club...
But now its a restaurant...
Interesting signs...
...and art...
We got some chicken soup...
And fried chicken...
Omg...many classical asian art artifacts...
And sculptures...
Jade...
Some old painting...
It looked like a museum...
Some classical painting that reminded me of tibet...
And a turning torso miniature...
After this lunsh I returned to taipei...Taizhong is an interesting city...it seems to have many things to offer...
