Taiwan Trip (Day 4) - Part 1: Taipei - YongHe, Xinbeitou, Thermal Valley, Spa Spring Resort

Previous post - Day 1 / Day 2 / Day 3
Morning glory! I will blog day 4 into a few blog posts because I have tons of photos. What I can say is that day 4 is a "I love you and you love me" day. A wonderful, amazing, romantic place for couple. But before we headed out to all those destinations, we had to fill up our stomach first.能吃是福呀! We had our breakfast at YongHe. It is nearby Rainbow hotel. Just turn to your left when you came out from the lobby and walked straight till the junction and turned left. You will see a granny whom was making breakfast at the corner. I was searching for mantou, my favorite and here it was. Whee~~~ I love mantou and ys asked whether I wanna buy frozen mantou back to Singapore or not. At least 10 pieces. Haha. 


Plain Bun
At the YongHe, their services were fast and they encouraged you to think first before you queue. In Taiwan, 內用&外帶are their dine in and take away. In Singapore is 吃&打包/帶走.

After we were searching for Spa Spring Resort, we followed the map. We walked up and down the hill but still couldn't find it till we saw the road sign below. We had been passing by the resort for a few times. (・_・ヾ




We booked a private room for NT1280 (approximately SGD53) for 2 hours. The hotel room is big and comfy. We tried the hot spring spa for only 5 mins and went out already. The skin became red. After that, both of us dozed off. It was like our energy level being drained out by the hot spring water. Well, our first time experience hot spring and I guessed I don't really like it. (-_-)ゞ゛ The package came with 2 desserts and 2 drinks at the Bar. Hehe. Nom nom nom~~~

I met my poly friend and her bf here too. So coincidence! 
Off to bed now.

Good night and sweet, everyone.
