NTS Taiwan Trip 2008 was held by NUSSU Travel Service (NTS) during the school vacation in December.

Scenery!!!

During our 7 days trip, we travelled to famous sight-seeing places, such as Sun Moon Lake, Yangmingshan National Park, Taroko National Park, Chishingtarn (where Stephanie Sun shot her album photo for the Perfect Day~~). In Taipei, we went to Taipei 101, Ximenting, and many must-go places.

Food!!!

One of the most important things we did in Taiwan is to eat~~~ For those chics, just forget those diet or losing weight kind of stuff lah. If you miss the local flavors in Taiwan, I bet you’ll regret for the rest of your life, no kidding!!! One of the best parts of this trip is to spend the dinner time in night markets, such like Shihlin, Hualien, Chiufen…

Culture!!!

We knew much more of Taiwan from our great tour guide Alan and driver “Zeng ge”. They told us stories of the history, politics, and traditions in Taiwan, and we even know that in some places of Taiwan, there are more than 10 7-Eleven’s within just 100 meters!!

This year, the second wave is coming~~ We are going to have NTS Taiwan Trip 2009. This time, we’ll make some improvements based on the feedback from the participants in 2008. So what are you waiting for? Go ahead and sign up NTS Taiwan Trip 2009!!!
