Taiwan Day 9: 貓空 Gondolas !

Taiwan Day 9: 貓空 Gondolas !

Today was unfortunately our last day :sadface: Thus I decided to walk around some local parks before we needed to head out of our Airbnb in the morning:

This is from one of the vista points of a local park:

A photo of a cat who was meowing very loudly near the parks I walked around:

Our flight isn’t until 11:30 pm and our Airbnb checkout time was 11:00 am… so we decided to explore one last place – the Maokong gondolas ! They can be found near the entrance of the Taipei zoo:

These were the views from the gondola:

Some photos of the Maokong area once we got to the top!:

Some really yummy oolong soft serve I bought, apparently made with locally grown and picked tea leaves.

Also a deep fried egg scallion pancake. I usually only eat these pan fried, so this was my first time eating it deep fried. It was pretty yummy:

Some cats I took photos of:

Some other random photos from today:

A cotton candy vending machine:

An interesting sewer cover design:

A cute breakfast shop we passed by while I was looking for a luggage store:

And finally, my last meal in Taiwan. I got some snack food from the 7-11 on the observation deck floor of the airport – which I didn’t even know existed before :

It’s been very interesting coming to Taiwan on my own terms for the first time this time – I may write a reflections post soon. Thanks everyone for keeping up with me !

Welcome to my blog, where I share many of my photos but also share tidbits about life, travels, deep topics, and reflections. I hope to share about the worthiness and goodness of the human experience through all that is difficult and beautiful.
