Day 6 Northeast Coast Tour in New Taipei

A full day tour from klook! We were chartered from Taipei Main Station to visit the Northeast Coast in New Taipei. The very 1st stop was the toughest for me. It was a trekking trip where we were given 2 hours to trek. Of course we can always just head back to the starting point if we are unable to go through with it.

Changed of hotel to Cosmos Hotel Taipei and it was just less than 5 minutes cab ride away with cab fare of NT $110!  After a swift drop-our-luggage at the hotel (since it wasn't time for check-in), time for lunch! At Taipei main station, we were spoilt from choices. Had planned to try Dim Dim Sum and I am glad we did. It was really great! We came around 11+ am close to 12pm. After we were settled in, the queue stayed forming. The best was the noodle, the shrimp roll and the liu sha bao.  (We ate before I took the picture) Spent  NT1085 in total for our lunch at Dim Dim Sum. Took a half day tour via Klook to Thousand Island Lake and Pinglin Tea Plantation . Met up with our tour guide and we were supposed to have a group of 5 with 2 people lesser because they didn't turned up. Travelled in a 7 seater sedan, we were brought to the various locations stated in the itinerary (and finally we felt like we were tourists as we were brought to places that we hardly go to.) Arr
