Summary and Itinerary of My Taiwan Trip with my Senior citizens parents : Taipei, Taichung and Shinshe




The itinerary is a bit boring for the young people. However, this is to catered to my simple and elderly parents. Comfort and stress free trip is the key thing and also have to bring them to where they like to go. Cafe hopping and Wufenpo was out. :(


Taipei


Check in at our hotel. Just above the station.
New and good location.





It is a food street near our hotel with lots of convenience stores.
We made 2 trips here but there is too much food to eat.
 永康街





Lots of food to eat and just beside my hotel









師大夜市 饒河街觀光夜市
One is for the young, one is the food.











Taichung
































our very cool hotel with a slide

taiwan free and easy : Taichung Yizhong street 一中商圈



I read some online forums that Yizhong is slightly smaller, more interesting  than Fengjia night market and also less crowded and touristy
Yizhong, night markets opens quite early, around 4pm. The shops opens much earlier and  closes around 11pm to midnight.
Yizhong is definitely not as crowded as Fengjia. More space to walk around and the queue for food is slightly shorter. There is quite a lot of shops here, selling accessories and clothes. I bought a lot of stationeries.
Food wise, I think Fengjia has slightly more variety.
I don't have directions to here as I stroll here from my hotel. It is like 15-20mins walk but the directions were quite straightforward.
I went twice, once at night and once at the night afternoon.

Fengjia is definitely the one to visit. If you are staying more than a night, this is a good place to eat street food and shop.
