Taipei Travel

Passed by this mall for photo op of the Ferris wheel on top of the mall. Though we didn't ride we enjoyed the grocery for souvenirs for family and we also ate at food republic. They have many Asian fast food outlets you can choose from. That night there was someone singing in food republic.

Recently I watched a film~「Where'd You Go, Bernadette」starred by Cate Blanchett at this theater which provides a decent environment including top notch big wide screen and stereo equipment and services.

We watched Alita in 3D and it was an amazing experience. The screen is huge (I would recommend selecting a seat towards the back) and crystal clear. The seats are very comfortable and the staff is very polite and efficient. Also the prices of the popcorn and drinks were the lowest I’ve seen in any IMAX or big movie theater I’ve been in either Asia or Europe. I highly recommend the experience.

We were staying nearby at the Marriott with a view of the ferris wheel from our window, and so it was a natural enough place to go and visit. First time on a ferris wheel for my son. Overall quite good fun and he was free (5 years old), although we had to show some ID to qualify for that.

I was staying around the corner from the mall so it was convenient to wonder across to the food Hall on the lower level. There’s a number of stores, although the majority are not that great, feels a bit sterile.
