Tanshui


If ever you visit Taipei be sure to take a trip to Tanshiu. Here you'll see fantasic sunsets and enjoy mingling with people. Of course, as with almost everywhere in Taiwan you'll also get to eat some great seafood at the night market.

A typical flat bottomed boat used for inshore and estuary fishing.



Taiwanese barbequed corn makes a great snack.


Keeping with tradition many vendors in Tanshui use lanterns instead neon signs to advertise. The lantern on the left is advertising 虾xiā 卷juǎn and the one on the right is advertising 鱼yú丸wán汤tāng (shrimp rolls and fish ball soup).
