We arrived Taiwan after 3 hours flight from Kota Kinabalu.  We then went to have our lunch before we start our journey. Yehliu Geopark is the first destination we went to and you can see a number of nice rock formations here.

When we arrived, it is not as crowded as I expected. May be still early in the morning. :P

Our tour guide was great.  He bring alot of laughter to the group and share alot information with us during the entire trip.

One of the popular rock formation at Yehliu, The Gorilla.

The most famous rock formation was the "The Queen's Head".  If you want to take photo with it, you need to queue quite a long time as alot of tourists.  So, We decided to take it from far as we have limited time and we have alot of area to checkout at Yehliu.

Jiufen (九份)used to be a village at mountain area that have only 9 famalies and alot of gold was discovered in the area.  Now this area become tourists attraction and you will see alot of souvenir stores and alot of things to eat too. :D

Fried mushroom. Nice.

Danshuei Fisherman Wharf used to be an important fishing harbor for taiwan.  Now it is very well-known by its beautiful sunset and the Lover's bridge.  According to our tour guide, alot of couples will come to here to enjoy the sunset.

The third destination for the day will be the Danshuei Old Street Night Market.  Here you can find alot of things to eat and one of the famous, Ah Gei (阿给).

Others well known food like Smelly Tofu (臭豆腐) and Big Sausage wraping Small Sausage (大肠包小肠) also can find it here.

We then heading to our last destination for the day, Hsimenting (西门町).  It is very popular area as here you can find the most up to date Stuff. :D

Ah Chung Noodle (阿宗面线) also very nice and well known.  The bitter gourd juice mixed with honey also nice to drink.
