Wish for love, go there for pray
by yatingchen
When one has wish for love, he goes to the famous Love-Temple for pray. It's said that the successful rate there is high.
For the first visit you have to pay for gift for God.
How to pray: in front of the God (an old guy called the old under the moon) you have to let him know, your name, birthday, age, address and wish. After the whole praying process, you will get one red-strip as charm, just put it in your wallet.
How to make God help you more:
1)go to pray as often as you can, then the God will know you more.
2) go to pray on the God's birthday, according to lunar calender on the August 15 (full-moon festival)
Wish you guys good luck for love :-)

by dennisKL about Shilin Night Market
This is really a very large market in Taipei. Get yourself for a few hours walk. If you are stop at the Jian Dan Station, opposite of this is a large hawker center which is fixed with air-cond that you can actually feel betther especially during hot summer. Check out for the mix fruit juices and local food. Keep to the left of the street you will find a large electronic and mobile discount stall. Check out for some good deal.

Located at ximending, this mee sua stall seems to be popular with the locals. One unique custom of this stall is that people who dine in stand around the stall. No tables and chairs are provided.
