Our ride up the gondola began around 8:00 a.m., all dressed in our matching yellow outfits (once again, all matching!). A gondola is a gondola for me. It's the ride and the scenery that make it exciting. The ride up the gondola was really unique! Rather than just going up, we went up and down, and to the left and the right. It was really interesting, but super cool, as our scenery was always changing! When we arrived to the top, we took a bus and a few cars to a famous temple on the hillside. The temple was pretty, but the view was INCREDIBLE! I could see Taipei at it's fullest. I felt as though I had opened my arms really wide and I was holding Taipei! It was the morning, so the sky was perfectly blue and the sun was shining, the cherries on top of this view!
After our time at the temple and viewing Taipei, we walked to a nearby restaurant. The restaurant we went to was so busy. They tell me it is so busy because it is really famous and really good! Well, I can assure you that I know why they are indeed busy. I also now know one of my number one restaurant recommendations for future travelers to Taiwan! Ha! So much food and all so good! In the afternoon, we went to a tea shop. We learned how to brew our own tea the correct way and we also tasted and smelled some teas of the Maokong area. It was very nice!
