Taiwan research trip June 2013

I went out to the Raohe St. Night Market with my colleagues. It was very crowed, and warm. There are food stalls everywhere! There are stalls selling clothes, jewellery etc, and even puppies and kittens! I was even at a stall pondering should I buy an Er-hu...maybe next time :)
