Taipei - Day 2

10:00am
Bought tickets to Taipei 101. Amazing view of the city, a city so huge that I don't get to see the boundary of it even so high up.












2:30pm
Just finished touring the Sun Yat-Sen Memorial. There is quite a large amount of information about this great man that any historian will definitely love to study.
















4:30pm
After visiting the 'Ball' mall, we are now walking leisurely in the compound of the Chiang Kai-Shek Official Residence. Given the age and size of the place, one can imagine how extravagant the president was with respect to his citizens. It is now like a botanical garden for everyone to visit.
















7:10pm
Shi Ling Night Market - too trendy for me :p
Got to meet up with a friend I know only online. Too bad she had to rush back to work overtime.
