2. 中央公園站 Central Park Station > 統一夢時代購物中心 Dream Mall
My friends alighted at Central Park Station for the New Juejiang Shopping Area 新堀江商圈, and i decided to give it a miss.
^^But I finally took a photo at the central park station; a photo of my favourite 痞子英雄 (Black and White) scene EP4, where kingone ran up the flight of escalator!!!
I actually went back to our stay at 85building for a short rest, before joining them for the Dream Mall!
^^Dream Mall ferries wheel at night
We just shop around, buying some OPEN merchandise and Doreamon merchandise
3. 凱旋夜市 Kaisyuan Night Market > 高雄金鑽觀光夜市 Jin-Zuan Night Market
So we went back to the newest Night Markets in Kaohsiung. Just take the metro to 凱旋 Kaisyuan Station (R6) and follow the signs to the shutter bus provided. There will be 2 shutter bus; one to Jin-Zuan NM and another to Kaisyuan NM. Both Night Markets are just next to each other so take whichever you like.This time round we went to 凱旋夜市 Kaisyuan NM
^^The night market's lanes are catergorised into different road name starting from 1“一” and so on; so if you are lost you can simply quote the "road name" to your family/friends
As we were all pretty hungry, so we just sat down whatever stall with the shortest queue and not so mainstream Taiwanese Night Market food
^^Thai Fried Chicken Set
Maybe Im really hungry... It tasted awesome! The sauce with the chicken, and the chicken with the rice. So nice that I think if I happen to go back the night market, I will order it again!
I feel Kaisyuan NM is pretty disappointing, so we went back to Jin-Zuan NM and ate/drank some repeated stuffs. And we shopped both NM until quite late, and the shutter bus service as ended. So we walked from the NM to the nearest metro station (凱旋 Kaisyuan Station). It took around 20mins walk, crossing some highway-look-alike roads, pretty scary and dangerous to walk alone. And the shutter bus service ends around at 10.30~11pm for both NM.
4. Sanduo Shopping District 三多商圈 > Family Mart
We decided to do something crazy in the middle of the night before heading back to 85building...
Having Family Mart cone icecream! It was close to 12am and it was winter time. And we sat at the window glass seats had our icecream and got judged by some people. HAHAHA, but we were not the only crazy ones, some guy pop by the family mart and bought 2 cones and drove off. I wonder how he drove with the 2 cones? And we ended the day doing this crazy act.
5. Kaohsiung HSR > Taipei HSR
^^My favourite fruit drink and sandwich from 7-11
^^small snacks from my friend from his friends in Kaohsiung; 澎湖奶油花生酥, it was really nice! It was fragrant and crispy, not that sweet, and it was a perfect combination with bread and we bought alot packs at Taipei Main Station when we stumbled upon it.
As we have student pass, so we bought the HSR ticket with it, (I cant remember it is 50% or 30% off), most likely 30% off tickets back to Taipei. You can do so when you have a vaild Taiwan student pass. It is really worth buying if the timing given by the HSR is suitable for you!
