Hmm... So what kind of sweater should I bring?
The temperature will drop further if it rains right?

Thanks. Cause 2 years ago when I was in Taipei, the 18 degrees there was quite chilly with the wind and all. My friends were talking about wearing shorts. I'm not sure if that's a good idea. Btw is a better to take train or bus to Jiu Fen? I read somewhere that one have to book the ticket in advance to get a seat on the train. |

Taiwan's subtropical climate, with generally warm temperatures and Northern Hemisphere Summers (June - September) & Winters (November - March) Summers can be hot and wet, although rainfall is often limited to afternoon & evening storms. Winter temperatures are mild and the only snowfall is on Mountain peaks. Spring 春 : Feb - Apr Summer 夏 : May - July Autumn 秋 : Aug - Oct Winter 冬 : Nov - Jan I think a thin sweater or a cardigan would do..

Seems like you are a real hello kitty fan eh? I dont have the web site but I have the address, its very near to the Nikko cafe too: 台北市大安路一段90號 90 Da'An Road, Taipei, Taiwan (Da'An Road is across the road and perpendicular to the big Sogo department store on 45 Zhongxiao East Road (Sec. 4)). Ph: (02) 2711-1132 This is what you can expect to eat:  What's the average amount one will spend? |
