hey travel friends,
i'm going to taipei tomorrow. i just went to the good travel book store here and they're closed. i don't have time to bus downtown to the barnes and noble, nor spend hours "hoping" that the smaller book stores will have what i need. could i just find all this at the airport? i have never been an airport shopper so i don't know if they're totally stocked.
thanks

Are you flying out of SFO? If so, I know that there at least 3 bookstores in the international terminal. I would guess that you would be able to find something about Taipei.
Good luck and have a great time. I enjoyed time in Taipei a couple of years ago.
I thought you were there last month? Anyway there are good maps and guide package when you pick up your luggage at the carousel. they can get you around until you are in town and then find your book if you need it at the 101 tower shopping mall. have a great time Cheers Tommy x
thanks tommy. no, i was just planning last month... apparently not well enough :)
Remember to head for the 101 building/Xinyi/Taipei city Hall area-a lot of things happening there till 2 pm. Last year the crowd there was around 700,000 people!!
yeah!! i'm going for sure! hopefully with a member from vt
i heard there were 400,000 but 700, even better!
their food court was featured on the travel channel's bizzare foods. it's on the 13the floor. i plan to hit that up too! thanks for the tips! i'm having a really good time and it's one of the cleanest cities (if not the most i've ever visited). the people are super friendly. if this is any indication of what's to come, i'm going to really like my stay.
Hi
The real food court is in the basement of the 101 bldg.
I was there last Sunday with my Babe :) The Thai Express (Very Good but spicy) was offering Buy 1 get 1 free i.e. Both of us ate delish food for only NTD148/- amazing!!!
Have a Happy New Year and enjoy your stay here in Taiwan.

A signature of Taiwan has to be the night markets, often bustling and full of colour noise and smells. They can often be cramped, dirty or chaotic but always interesting and have plenty of hot food and cheap goods on sale. There are usually some slot machines and games for children.

Ximen has a huge number of clothing stores, eating opportunities and some mini gaming arcades to enjoy and browse through. It's usually very crowded with student types, but after 9-10pm it is very quiet, if you want to drink here you should go to the red house.
In quite a short time, Taipei, the capital city of Taiwan, is developping a network of 4 conventional mainly underground metro lines and 1 automated elevated light rail metro line to relieve the city from traffic congestion. Although previously shown as separate lines, the red, green and orange lines are now operated jointly. Green labelled trains from Tamshui run through to Hsintien, and orange labelled trains from Peitou run trough to Nanshih Chiao. The section between Peitou and Hsin Peitou is now operated as a branch by single EMU's from 7:00 to 21:00 because of noise problems. In the early mornings and in the evenings service is provided by a free shuttle bus. In 2000, different routes were also assigned numbers to improve orientation.
Tamshui Line - 23 km - 20 stations, partly underground, following former railway route (now northern branch of Line 1 and Line 2)
Hsintien Line - 10.5 km - 11 stations, underground, along Roosevelt and Peishin Roads (now Line 1 south).
Hsimen - C.K.S. Memorial Hall opened 31 Aug. 2000 (Line 6 now operating as a shuttle with one intermediate station, Hsiao Nanmen).
Chungho Line - 5.5 km - 4 stations, all underground, along Chungho and Yungho road, under the Hsintien River (now Line 2 south).
Blue Line (Pannan Line or Nankang-Panchiao-Tucheng Line) - 28 km- 24 stations, underground, along Chunghua and Chunghsiao Roads, Hoping West Rd. and Wenhua Rd., cross the river Hsintien in a tunnel (now Line 3).
Mucha Line - 11 km - 12 stations, elevated, rubber tyred, fully automated VAL type line, stations have side platforms and screen doors.

Mongolian BBQ is a popular cuisine with the Taiwanese. In this Mongolian BBQ restaurant, you choose your meat - beef, lamb, pork, chicken and vegetables - bean sprouts, cabbage, broccoli, pineapple and finally lace your concoction with sauces. Present your buffet selection to the chef who will fry your food on a huge hotplate.
Remember that after frying, the amount of food is half of the original amount so don't be afraid to pile up your bowl. BBQ meat and boiled meatballs and vegetables
