TAMSUI FISHERMAN WHARF AND TAMSUI OLD STREET

July 24, 2015

Tamsui is definitely another great place in Taiwan. We took the red line MRT to reach there and it was the last station in the red line route. We went there in the afternoon and the weather was really hot. Before we went sight-seeing at the Tamsui Fisherman Wharf, we went to a shopping mall.










The driver told us it's not easy to become a street artist in Taiwan. They had to sit for examination. We were like Wah...really...why? He didn't answered but he just said, 'Everything in our country need examination.' We just responded ooooh...lol. It was really hot that day. It was 34 degree celsius and I really felt pity when I saw him performing. Basically the street artists' income is from the money that the tourist put into their box. When he performed, he was surrounded by lots of people. People just watched the performance.Some seemed to be in awe. Some people just left after they watched him performing. Some people just wanted to take photo with him. I noticed that there's no people giving him money. If you don't want to give money, the least that you can give is your applause. This is really not an easy job. Thumbs up for the street artists!

Us. Found a big mirror to take photo.

We had our lunch at Tamsui Old Street. Lots of delicious street food were sold here. We ordered 'Tamsui Arcade' and purchased these jumbo ice cream. Love the matcha ice cream so much. Quench our thirst!!!
