Miaoli's Tong Flowers

It's Taiwan's Tong flower season in May & everybody goes to countryside to enjoy the Tong flower blooms. Miaoli is particularly famous for them.


Personally, I did't think it's THAT big a deal. The blooms are pretty, but not stunning. Still, it was nice to go relax & walk around the countryside.

A traditional Hakka home-cooked lunch at David's home in Miaoli.

A real cool rocking chair:

- Made of metal
- And the base doesn't move - no more toppling over!

Cafe with a view


Not so traditional Hakka mochi


50 year old chinchow stall - Before u get too impressed, Taiwan has shitloads 50-100 year old stores haha.



And the evening ends with a bowl of beef noodles in Hsinchu.
