Taiwan Day 8 - 西门町,台北101

12-Apr - Second last day of our 台湾 holiday. We decided to make full use of the remaining time available to visit the places of interest that all tourist should visit whenever they are in 台北. First off the list will be a trip down to the Bugis style shops in 西门町.

阿宗面线 - Not bad!

Cinema Street - I think there are 4 different cinemas along this stretch, including an IMAX. Ticket price wise, they are comparable to Singapore

A surprise find - One Piece Shop. The comic is really cheap! NTD$105 - 东立 version

Monkey D. Luffy (mid)

With heavy heart, we took the Metro back to our hotel to rest as tomorrow, we have to leave Taiwan for our flight back to Singapore, marking the end of our holiday.
