There is no need to buy tix in advance for Shifen. You can get them at Ruifang station. Basically, you alight the train to Ruifang. Then you will see the counter that sells the tix. Buy the day tix from there.

If you are interested in Cats, can drop by Houtong to visit the cats village.

Things to note: Please note down the timing of the next train. If you missed it, it will be another hour wait.

Means u have to be at airport around 1. The only place to go is taipei underground mall. Though that one opens about 11 or so.

Morning? Best place to go, is to go BEO... U know where right?
龙山寺, longshan station.
