Unfortunately for me, it was drizzling... but that did not dampen my mood. The price of the tickets were really cheap, being NT60 (less than 3SGD)!
In order to get to Taipei Zoo, simply take the metro to Taipei Zoo Station. Maokong Gondola was closed for maintenance during the stay I was there, so if you are at Taipei Zoo, don't forget to drop by Maokong Gondola where you get to be treated to the sights of the greenery.
I saw a lot of animals there, and since it was a weekday and it was quite early, there were hardly any tourists around. The paths were quite empty so I felt quite pleased to immerse myself in the nature. Most of the animals found there are enclosed, but their living environments are quite open.
I could not believe I had the chance to see Koala bears.. even though they were in a special air-conditioned room, it was quite a rare sight to see them. I took my time spending time to watch them.
One thing I love about Taipei Zoo is that there are lots of statues of animals around for you to take a photograph with. I also wanted to visit there because there were pandas!
And then there were many other animals too..
I even witnessed the zookeeper doing grooming for the animals!
It was super adorable watching the whole process! She was combing its fur and grooming it so that it looked fluffy and cute.
I spent around 2-3 hours there, and when I reached the peak of the Taipei Zoo, I was mad tired... and I didn't want to walk anymore. Hence, I took the internal shuttle using my metro card, as it only cost NT5 for one single trip.
After that, it was nearly evening... and I went back to Shida Night Market, as opposite Shida Night Market, there was a street filled with authentic Korean food. It was highly raved in the Taipei Guidebook.
There ending a picture of my night...
Kimchi Pancake! Yums.
