{A Photodiary} Taiwan D3: Taipei // Paragliding // Jiufen // Shifen

Hello again :>

Finally got back to posting D3 of Taiwan although its been months LOL. Guess I should continue haha :----)

Our driver brought us to paraglide on top of a hill, and the ride took about an hour.

First time paragliding so I was really excited about it! :-)

It was drizzling a little and the area was really cloudy, so the visibility was actually quite bad. Even so, since we have already driven all the way up here to paraglide, we just went ahead with it!

Jiufen

Headed over to jiufen after, the location where spirited away was based on! :-)
We had lunch here and stayed for around 2-3h, and there were many souvenir shops here -- definitely a good place to buy stuff! :-)

rly nice view from the top

Golden Waterfall

Our driver then drove us down to the golden waterfall which was just nearby. TBH, it was quite underwhelming but it's still really amazing how the colour is so different.

Yin Yang River

The road led us to the yin yang river, where the colour of the river is really unusual.

Shifen Waterfall

After that, we drove over to shifen asap as it was getting quite late.

Shifen

This was the best part of our trip :-) We walked over to 'fang tian deng', which is to set sky lanterns! :-)) Like the place in the really popular movie -- You are the Apple of my Eye.

There were many varieties of sky lanterns, and the different colours have different meanings

And we just had to hog the railway to take photos :')

Ali

Had to leave after a short while as we were going to overshoot the time we hired the driver :-(( But he was really nice not to charge us for the extra 1/2h although it was really our fault. :-)
He even drove us to the hostel to put down our stuff first before driving us to the nearby night market. So nice!!! :-))))

Anyway so this concludes day 3 of TaiBBBabes, finally.
