Trip to Yilan

Few months ago, I went to Yilan with my friends of the college. Actually, we had been planning this trip for a long tome. All of us were extremely excited because this was our first time having a trip to somewhere far.

We planned a two-day trip to Yilan. In the morning of the first day, all of us walked to the train station to take the train to Taipei. Then we took the MRT from Taipei Main Station to Sun Yet-Sen Memorial Hall to take the bus to Yilan. Maybe you will wonder why we didn't just take the train to Yilan directly. The reason was because we were a group of poor students. We didn't have too much money, so we need to find some ways to save our money. In fact, I didn't think it was boring, oppositely, I thought it was quite fun to go to Yilan in this way.

When we arrived at Yilan, we went to eat something famous there. Then we rent the scooters and go to the place we were going to stay that night. Next, we went to one of the famous tourist spot in Yilan - National Center for Traditional Arts.

After that, we went to another famous tourist spot in Lo-Tong - Lo-Tong Night Market. I am shocked when I got there. There are a lot of people and it was also a raining day that day. By the way, the foods in Lo-Tong Night Market was really delicious and cheap. You should try them next time.

In the second day, we went to Dong-Shan river. You can't miss it if you go to Yilan. The scenery there is very beautiful. It also has lots of recreational facilities. It would be a lot of fun to go there.

After that, all of us decided to go back to our home. We were too tired to go to the other tourist spots. Though these two days were really tiring, I will never forget this experience to go on a vacation with my friends of college. Actually, we are planning another trip to Jiu Fen after we finish our mid-term exam. I can't wait the coming day.
