@@@ March 17, 2018 Location: Taipei, Taiwan

Happy St Patrick’s Day ... and Happy Birthday Cousin Ian! Well, arrived in Taipei, Capital of Taiwan. With an overnight flight, the day was not too eventful so have included mostly night shots ... more sights to follow.

Actually this street under construction...

The hotel I’m staying in is in one of the more popular shopping and night market districts, Ximenting, a neighborhood and shopping district in the Wanhua Dustrict of Taipei. It was the first and is the largest pedestrian zone in Taiwan.

Red dates filled with walnuts ... a treat for T$420 ( C$18.84)

Eats and treats ... and performers

Man who makes extraordinary things from wire ...

Skyscrapers at night

View from the room ... at night
