Day 2 started with visiting the many museums and I learnt more about the history of Taiwan and Taiwan's Hakka culture from the guides and even our own tour guide. Our tour guide also told us that Taiwan is the "Kingdom of Fruits" where farmers are more well-paid than most office workers! I also learned more about Taiwan's colonial rule from the tour guide such as the fact that Taiwan was one colonised by the Spanish and the Dutch. After the museums, we visited the signature of Taiwan, the night market. In my opinion, the night market we visited, the Liuhe night market, was not as impressive as I had expected. In my opinion, it was quite small and had a small variety of food. However, the food was delicious. It was good enough for us to feel the culture and delicacies of Taiwan. That was the end of Day 2.
