After we got dropped off from the taxi back towards our hotel

搭計程車回到飯店之後

We took the subway to our next location which was very convenient and easy to use

我們搭捷運到 下一個景點， 交通非常的方便，操作也非常容易

There were English translations for most of the prompts on the screen making ticket purchases very efficient

所有的介面都有英文翻譯，讓外國遊客購票非常的容易

You get a poker chip looking like coin, that you'll tap on a ticket gate and later use for the exit gate as well.

你會拿到一個像籌碼的硬幣， 在札口感應然後到站之後也是用此硬幣出車站

I was very eager to arrive at our next stop as it was supposed to be absolutely enormous

我非常的興奮到下個景點，據說那裡非常的壯觀

Whatup guys so right now we are outside of chiang Kai-shek

大家好我們現在到了中正紀念堂的入口

National Memorial Hall, which is it covers around over 240,000 square meters, so it is absolutely huge

中正紀念堂佔地面積有240,000平方公尺，非常的寬廣

The main Entrance is right here

這裡是入口

And it's designated to the former president of the republic of China. His name is chiang Kai-shek

中正紀念堂是一座為紀念故前 中華民國總統而興建的建築，他的名字叫蔣介石

Hence chiang Kai-shek memorial hall and here's like a very prominent a military leader

他是一位非常優秀的軍事領袖

in

在台灣的歷史上

Taiwan History, or the Republic of China and

他在1975年去世，算是還蠻近期的事情 在這裡你可以了解到許多關於中華民國的歷史

He died at 1975 so that's actually kind of recent. But um yeah, there's a lot of good history. You can see here

這裡你可以看到很多軍人

There's a lot of like soldiers

這裡今天好像有個很大的活動，有很多小軍人

Walking around it's actually like a big event right now with a bunch of soldiers...

他們是小朋友嗎？

like children...?

還是學生？

students...?

你進來啦！好像是高中生在..

Get in here buddy. Get in here. They're high school students doing what um

管弦樂表驗之類的 好啦，這之後我們要去...

Marching performance doing stuff and yeah, then after this we're going to go to

行天宮

Hsing Tian Kong

是一個台灣著名祈求生意興榮的寺廟， 佔地面積有70,000平方公尺

Which is a temple for that that's devoted to the god of business here in Taiwan, and that covers over 70,000 square meters

這裡真的非常非常的大

So these places are really really really big

我們到了象山啦

Yeah

之所以叫象山是因為它長得像大象的頭

We have made it to elephant Mountain aka Xiangshen

他是台灣人，連我不是台灣人我都知道了..

It's called Elephant Mountain because the mountain looks like an elephant head

我們山頂見啦

He's Taiwanese, I'm not even Taiwanese and I know...

我們才爬三分鐘而已

We will see you guys up on the mountain..

這象山

so we have been climbing for like 3 minutes...

這片都是樓梯

and Elephant Mountain

你看！這是個永無止境的象山

is just a buttload of stairs

這路越來越陡，樓梯越來越高像是在做深蹲

Look at that. This is a never-ending Elephant Mountain...

這象山根本是想要一步一步的搞死觀光客

Actually it just keeps getting steeper and steeper each step is getting longer and longer making for a deeper squat. How one else nothing

在象山的最頂端風景非常宜人，但是今天天氣不太好

Taiwan Elephant Mountain trying to kill tourists one step at a time...

當大家在說台灣的美食有多讚的時候， 他們真的不是只是說說的

At the top of Elephant Mountain was an absolutely gorgeous view of the City minus the weather

爬山真的是非常好消耗這幾天在台灣吸收熱量的方式

When people talk about how good taiwanese food is they are definitely not kidding around

旅途中我們不停的吃 每個吃到的美食都感覺比上一個還要來得好吃

The Hike was a perfect way to burn all those calories we gained while here in Taiwan

我過去沒有過任何一個旅行中有過那麼多的美食， 我很開心這次能有這樣的體驗

We couldn't stop eating on this trip as every meal seemed to get better than the last

最後一天我們決定搭機場快捷到機場

I don't think I've ever been on a trip that was centered around delicious food, but I'm glad I now have that experience

從台北車站可以直達機場， 對於機場往返的旅客非常的方便

On our last day we decided to take the train to the airport

買票的方式就和捷運一樣，價錢非常的便宜

near Taipei station, which has direct access to the airport terminal making for a very easy return home

往返機場的旅客一定要利用這個機場快捷

the process of purchasing the ticket is the same as buying a ticket on the normal train. The price was very cheap and

好啦，這次的台灣之旅就要結束啦， 真的令人非常難忘

definitely something you should take advantage of if you make your way down here

我真的很喜歡台灣！ 我要用珍珠奶茶來結束這趟旅行

All right guys that's going to wrap it up for kind of like an explore Taiwan video. We had a ton of fun

有些人叫它boba tea或是pearls tapioca pearls 總之他是起源於台灣

I absolutely love taiwan [um] I think it's just rightfully correct to end it with some tapioca since uh tapioca or

我們吃了非常多的美食，我們去爬山 還去了比較鄉下一點的地方，不是鄉下啦我是指..

boba tea, or I guess pearls tapioca pearls or however you want to call them originated from Taiwan

大城市外的地方，像是我們第一天去的九份和象山

we did so much from eating so much food to hiking to going to the countryside of Taiwan, not countryside, but like kind of

我們去買東西，去按摩，做了所有在台灣必玩必吃的東西 我真的超喜歡台灣啦

outside of the main city in Jiufen on the first day was absolutely great. We also went on a hike to Elephant Mountain

我一定還要再回來，去台中或是台南

We went shopping. We got a massage. We got everything Taiwan is absolutely.. I literally absolutely love it

台南是在南部，台中是在中部的地方
