Re-Visiting Taipei's Beauty

We rented a car service and spent one full day visiting some of the places on the outskirts of Taipei. I haven't been to a couple of these places since elementary school, so it was exciting for me. After visiting the graves of Jeff's grandparents and cousin, we went from Yangming Mountain to Jing-Shan to Yeh-Liu to Shan-Chi to Dan-Shui. I also got a chance to have some fresh coconut water and traditional local Taiwan dishes.

It was such a treat to re-visit the beauty of Taipei county. One of the reasons why Taiwan attracts so many tourists every year is its variety of natural scenery. There are beautiful mountains, amazing coastlines, lovely rivers and lakes, beautiful tea plantations. It's a small island, but Taiwan has it all!
