Wooow - non-stop sex for at least 3 hours. The guys have great bodies. Everybody just wants to have sex. The bottoms are all lubed up. No need to put lube - just fxxk them. A lot of bottoms. Almost everyone with great bodies. From the moment I set foot someone stuck their ass up my dick while I was standing surveying the area. I must have had sex with 30 men in 1 hour. Too many men too little time. Must go back. I want to move to Taipei!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some places, like Wu Lai for example, have no cheap hotels - prepare to pay around $200 SGD a night or more.If you are going Tainan, it may make sense to stay in Kaohsiung, but move around Tainan from there.The places you stated are huge by itself - unless you have a detailed iteniary planned, hard to advise you on where to stay.Also, are you travelling around by rail, THSR or bus? You want to co-ordinate your checkout time / things to do with your timings, otherwise you waste hours waiting, particularly for buses.

Nice scenery place ; farm area ? Thxhi~within taipei, you can visit taipei 101, ximending, 西门红楼 and funky for nightlife, the night markets 夜市 (市林, 师大 etc.) for food and shopping, aniki for spa and sauna, 新北头 for hotsprings, 大溪花海 for farms and rural life, 星光三越 for higher end shopping. these places are very accessible by their metro (mrt). for scenery, my suggestion is go to taichung by highspeed rail (高铁). spend 2 days there to visit sun moon lake (日月潭) and lavender cottage (熏衣草森林). Should also visit the mega 逢甲夜市 for street food. theres no mrt in taichung so you will have to take tour buses or cab to these places. just ask the hotel reception, they are most willing to help. plan beforehand and search the internet. it will save you alot of travelling time. enjoy ur trip! sunrayz81 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice scenery place ; farm area ? ThxI think 'Return' has covered quite a bit and his suggestions are very good. Nevertheless, I'll still give you my own inputs WITHIN TAIPEI1. CKS Memorial Hall, watch the hourly change-of-guards ceremony + admire CKS' personal sedan and other personal items, located above CKS Memorial Hall MRT station2. National Palace Museum, great for history buffs who would like to take a look at all the imperial treasures from Mainland China which were brought to Taiwan during the late 1940s civil war, take MRT to Yuanshan MRT station and transfer by taxi (approx. TWD100 or SGD5)3. Chiufen, nice old quaint town located in the northeastern part of Hsin-pei City; soak in the old world charm, view great coastal scenery and taste great local delights like Taro Balls in Shaved Ice, take local train from Taipei Main station to Rueifang station and transfer onto Chiufen-bound bus (journey takes about an hour from Taipei)4. Yehliu, serene coastal town with lots of unique coastal features, take Keelung-bound bus from Taipei West station (terminal station where all Kuo-kuang Bus Company's buses are parked at) and alight at Yehliu5. Wulai, excellent natural beauty with cool crisp air and luxuriant forest cover, hotspring baths are worth a try and so is a walk down Wulai Old Street, take MRT train from Taipei Main station to Hsintien station and transfer onto Wulai-bound bus (journey takes approx. 75 mins from Taipei) 6. Yingko Ceramic & Pottery Street, good for tourists who would like to take a look at the pottery pieces made in this quaint old town which is akin to Mainland China's famous Jingde Township, some tea houses there even let you take back the ceramic cup that they use to serve you, take local train from Taipei Main station to Yingko stationBEYOND TAIPEI1. Sun Moon Lake, located in Nantou County, scenic beauty comparable to Hangzhou's West Lake and Japan's Lake Biwa, accessible by taxi or local tour buses from Taichung (Note: Take Taiwan High Speed Rail from Taipei Main station to Taichung, journey time approx. 90 mins)2. Alishan, located in Chiayi County, pristine forest with cool crisp air, nature beauty at its best, accessible by direct bus (Kuo-kuang Line) from Taipei on weekends / alternatively, take Taiwan HSR to Chiayi station and then join local 1-day Free & Easy tour (covers return bus ride from Chiayi HSR station to Alishan Visitor Centre, packet lunch, and stopover at Fen-Chi Lake Old Street)3. Taroko Gorge, located in Hualien County, spectacular marble gorge - one of the very few in Asia, take train from Taipei Main station to Hualien station and transfer onto local taxis (most drivers will charge you NTD2000 for a return trip to Taroko Gorge and they will also act as guides along the way / alternatively, join a local 1-day tour at NTD1000 per pax) Hope the above helps If you need more info, just give me a buzz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunrayz81 Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 To: InTaiwanNowI can't help but to say that you seemed to be a little biased in your review ... whenever a place is 'flooded' by Mainland tourists, you seem to have the tendency to label that place as not worthy of a visit. I think 'crowd issue' should not be used as a determinant in deciding whether a place is worth of a visit or otherwise.CKS Memorial Hall is definitely worth a visit because of the architecture of the building as well as the historical materials on display within the hall.National Palace Museum (NPM) contains a lot of treasures from imperial China and these treasures are of high value and are deemed as first class artifacts by many professional antique collectors. Unless one has complete no interest in museum visits, I don't see why NPM should be given a miss.Chiufen is definitely not just about tea houses and old buildings. It sells a lot of delicious local snacks and commands a spectacular view of Keelung as well as the greenery surrounding the northeast region of Taipei/Hsinpei City. The architecture is also worthy of mention.As for accommodation, I am afraid I have to disagree with your comment that one 'must' stay at Hsimenting district. In fact, many have chosen to stay at Taipei Main station area for ease of transport access, as well as the Taipei 101 area for shopping and food hunts. In fact, NO MATTER which area you stay in Taipei, so long as your hotel is within 10 minutes of walking distance to a MRT station, you will be able to have good access to major parts of the city and at the same time be within reach of shopping, entertainment and food.Skipping night markets is a NO-NO! If one fails to make a visit to a local night market in Taiwan, he/she can be deemed as having not visited Taiwan. The night market culture is something that a tourist must attempt to soak in even if he/she doesn't really like the food on offer. And given the variety of food on offer, I think it's difficult not to find something that suits one's tastebuds. Last but not least, if the food doesn't look clean, I think many people would have kena food poisoning and many travel blogs would have given the advice of avoiding the night markets. But this is NOT the case. In fact, Shihlin Night Market as well as the other major night markets in Taiwan have always received high praises in many travel blogs, guides and commentaries.I hope that you will take my comments as positive criticisms and that they are certainly not meant to flame you or to discredit you in one way or another. peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As subjective as you are, I just want to reiterate that crowd factor shouldn't be a key in determining whether or not a place/attraction is worth a visit.Anyway, before we steer off the topic, in which Butterfly was asking for good suggestions, may I add in one more destination within reach of Taipei by rail >> Yilan. Yilan has a very laid-back atmosphere, coupled with clean fresh air and lush greenery. The Su'ao Cold Spring is also very unique - being the only cold spring in a country dominated by numerous hot springs.Cheers~ Edited September 28, 2011 by sunrayz81 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

U will be super lucky found 1 with sitting toiletYes ... and the squatting bowl looks awkward ... very different from those you find in southeast asian countries like M'sia and I'sia. On a side note, bringing your own toilet roll may be too cumbersome ... perhaps make sure you have two pkts of tissue with you in your backpack when you're travelling. Occasionally, you may wish to make use of hotel restaurants' toilets, wherever possible, because they tend to provide toilet paper.

However, I do have two farms to recommend:1. Toucheng Farms2. Shangri-La Leisure FarmToucheng is spread over hundred hectares and is quite popular with local Taiwanese, whether young or old. It's located in Yilan county and is easily accessible from Taipei. Take the train from Taipei to Toucheng and transfer onto local taxi to the farm. It should cost you less than NTD250. There's even a winery within the farmland!Shangri-La is quite big scale and popular with tour groups. The fruit orchard is the main attraction and so is the nightime activity of raising the 'heavenly lanterns' (tian deng). You can take a train or bus to Luotung and transfer onto the farm's own shuttle service.Cheers~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
