Sun Moon Lake-
 日月潭
 Bought the Sun Moon Lake pass from Taichung before coming.
There are several options, but i got the one that is NT $680.
It includes round trip from Taichung- Sun Moon Lake, ferry tickets, cable car tickets, bus tickets.
For more information, (Click here)
 Basically, i just have to show my ticket and exchange for a red stamp on my hand.
That allows me to take the ferry as many times as i want to.
 Sky was pretty cloudy which is pretty boo. What a waste):
Stopped by the first ferry stop, where a mini temple is located at.
But what is famous here is this tea leaf egg- NT $13.
I can see why there is such a long queue to it.
Because it is much more flavourful and yummier compared to other places.

There are many stalls on the way up to the mini temple that sells ointments & fruits.
Got myself a big pack of dragon fruit that cost NT $100.
It was pretty good!
But this stop was such a mood spoiler, cause ah tiongs are everywhere.
Whats worst is that they are all super rude and will push people away if they want the spot.
Cannot wait one... tsk tsk tsk, and not to mention, they are super loud.
Couldn't take it such that i have to plug in my earpiece...

 Next stop, which is where the cable car is located at (:
 As i was walking to take the cable car, the sky did clear up a little.
I could see blue sky with white clouds already.
 It was not too crowded and they allow me to have the entire cable car to myself!
 Pretty sad that it was still misty and cloudy and the view is not as beautiful as it should be!
Up the mountain is Formosan Aboriginal Culture Village-九族文化村,
but i did not pay to visit it and the package does not include this.
Went back to the old street/ food street where you can find many food stall.
Got myself some handmade muah chee. They are sold at NT $10 each.
Got the roasted ones also after queuing for the red tea that is super popular apparently.
Black sesame and peanut flavoured. 
Coffee to start off the day. Loving this series of drink whereby the packaging is so nice.
SPIDERS everywhere. Look how big they all are....


After which, i took the bus ride since the ferry did not bring me to many other stops.
I am entitled to unlimited rides along the route as well.
But since i do not have time, i only visited Wen Wu Temple- 文武廟.



Pretty okay sky to end off the day/night(:
