Review of travel outside of Taipei

#TaiwanTravel
Today's plan was to explore outside of Taipei. It started raining early in the morning, and the wind was strong and the air was cold. We took the train from Taipei to Keelung, then walked to catch bus 101 to our first destination:
- Zhengbin Fishing Port, a harbor lined with colorful buildings. We got off at the Zhengbin Fishing Harbor stop, which was a great place to take photos and enjoy the atmosphere.
- We then called an Uber to Heping Island Park, a geological park with uniquely shaped rock formations. After paying the entrance fee, we started exploring. This place is said to offer the most beautiful sea views in Keelung.
- Around 3 PM, we called an Uber to Jiufen, where we stayed until the lights turned on to enjoy the evening atmosphere. It was beautiful, and there were a lot of people.
- On the way back from Jiufen to Taipei, we took bus 965 to Ximending, where we could continue our walking tour.

Overall, our trip outside of Taipei was very enjoyable. The atmosphere was beautiful, and it was easy to get to. The only downside is the rain.
