December 2008 Trip: Day 9 – Tamsui (淡水)





Another famous tourist attraction in Taipei is Tamsui, and there were tons of people there when we visited it. Everywhere you go in Taipei, you find street vendors, and Tamsui was no different! We had BBQ squid, squid sausage, and Tamsui’s famous fish ball soup and rice noodles. We walked along Tamsui’s harbor and discovered a popular Turkish-run meat and ice cream shop, much to my surprise.

Jason's favorite- BBQ squid


After exploring Tamsui, we took the bus to the fishermen’s market. At the market, there is a “Valentine bridge” to walk across, which is lit up beautifully. Every couple that comes to Taipei ought to visit it!
