Flying to Taiwan: Aerial Beauty
Sitting on the plane, I looked out the window and the scene before me unfolded like a grand painting.
In the sky, the clouds resembled rolling mountains, sometimes like fluffy cotton floating gently above the blue sky, and sometimes like heavy mountain ranges, layered and casting mysterious shadows. As the plane flew by, the clouds spread out beneath us, as if we were flying over an endless snowy field, with every detail filled with tranquility and peace.
The sunset's rays danced among the clouds, with golden hues like a painter's carefully mixed colors, adorning the space between heaven and earth. As the plane continued its journey, the sunlight slowly glided over the clouds, as if bidding us farewell. The light traced golden edges along the clouds, painting the horizon red and coloring my thoughts.
As the plane gradually descended, Taiwan's mountains and coastline came into view. In the distance, the ocean met the sky, separated only by a faint gray-blue line. At this moment, the afterglow of the sunset sprinkled over the sea, shimmering like countless twinkling diamonds gently swaying.
Looking at this scenery, my mood calmed down. The brief flight felt like a spiritual cleansing. The sky and earth, light and shadow, all merged into one in an instant, creating an indescribable beauty. The plane was about to arrive in Taiwan, but this aerial journey would leave an indelible mark in my heart forever.

The third best food in the world at "Taoyuan T2 Airport"😋
I have been wanting to share this article for a long time. You must think that the food at the airport is expensive and not delicious, and you may even think that you don’t have time to eat at the airport? However, the travel platform announced the ranking of the world's 100 airport food in 2023, and "Taoyuan Airport" won the third place🥰
🌟Although I go in and out of T1 most often, there is really nothing worth writing about; area A/D has steak rice bowl, pasta, and beef noodles, area B/C has golden three wheats + snacks Elly, T1 is full first and then Go 😂
🌟Recommended for international tourists who have time to eat or transfer:
✔️ Xiao Wang’s Melon (T2 Terminal 3F Departure Area) Michelin Recommended
Our restaurant on Huaxi Street showcases the dominance of soy sauce-based braised pork rice with fat and white meat. It is paired with melon broth and white pepper to bring it to a new level👍
✔️ Shuangyue Food Club (T2 Terminal 4F Departure Area) Michelin recommendation
Undoubtedly my favorite restaurant in Taipei, the Love Hate Chili Seed Noodles + Garlic or Peeled Chili Chicken Soup Set is super delicious! Braised side dishes directly shine💕
✔️Matsu Xincun Wheel Cake (area next to T2 Terminal C3)
It’s simple, full of fillings and crispy, and the pearl milk tea flavor is very popular
✔️Le Mout (T2 Terminal 3F Departure Area)
Produced by Chen Lan, the number one female chef in Asia's top 50, you will not be disappointed
✔️ VWI by CHADWANG (T2 Terminal 3F Departure Area)
Airports have started to provide hand brewing, which is really good news for coffee lovers; it was founded by WBRC champion "Wang Ce", and the product is so delicious☕️
✔️ Xingbo Coffee Simple Kafa (T2 Terminal 4F Departure Area)
The store of world barista champion Wu Zelin, the Huashan store has always been very popular.
✔️ Lin Chongming’s Casserole Fish Head (T2 Terminal 3F Departure Area)
Although I personally don’t like it much, Chiayi Light is indeed very local.
💯There are many restaurants that I have not shared, such as VEGE CREEK recommended for vegetarians, Wanfang Ice Room if you want to eat Hong Kong style, Chun Shui Tang for bubble tea lovers, Lao Dong Beef Noodles/Halal Beef Noodles, for those who have the opportunity and time to eat Hurry up👍

Airport guide! Where is the luggage scale? Don’t worry if you don’t have time to buy souvenirs during your trip!
Taoyuan Airport Terminal 1 Guide!
📍Luggage
When going abroad, you are most afraid of discovering that you are overweight when measuring your luggage at the check-in counter!
Because if you find out you are overweight when you arrive at the counter, you can only use expensive luggage carriers 🥲
So I usually go to the airport some time in advance to measure the weight of my luggage!
The luggage scale at Taoyuan Airport Terminal 1 is near check-in counter No. 12
(Enter the departure hall and go to the right side to the end)
After seeing counter No. 12, turn around and walk to the toilet at the end to see it!
What's very considerate is that if you find that you are overweight, the postal mailing counter is just on the right.
You can refer to the price and then compare the price and time of luggage storage.
See if you want to send it by post.
(Generally, I will send items home by post if I am not in a hurry to receive them, because shipping by sea is still much cheaper than consignment)
📍Souvenirs
If you don’t have time to buy souvenirs during your trip, don’t worry~~
The best product in Taiwan's pineapple cake world - Weire Hill
You can see it as soon as you enter the departure hall of Terminal 1.
Currently, there are 10-pack and 2-pack pineapple cakes and apple cakes on the counter~~
In addition, one that is very popular recently - Dajia Master's Exploded Taro Cake
It is sold at the comprehensive gift shop near the luggage scale~~
The comprehensive gift shop also sells other famous souvenir brands!
⭐Please note that some countries cannot bring food containing egg yolk into the country!
Not all the items in the souvenir shop can be imported smoothly into any country you are going to, so remember to confirm with the store staff if you have any doubts! To avoid taking it back home only to find that you can’t enter the country and have to throw it away on the spot.
⭐After comparing the prices, the price of food souvenirs sold at Taoyuan Airport is the same as that of general stores and our store! You can buy with confidence ~ you will not be treated as a dish!
(There are some differences in the number and packaging of packages~~The reusable bags that get ten for free at Weireshanshan Airport have the 101 pattern!)
📍Waiting for flight
The B1R terminal is at the bottom of the airport, so it is recommended to reserve time to walk there!
The waiting room is divided into gates 1 to 8.
The B1R terminal was really confusing when I first saw it, and the boarding time board was not easy to understand.
(The fastest way is to confirm with the personnel at any boarding gate)
Generally, when you are about to board the plane, there will be an announcement telling everyone that the flight is at gates 1 to 8 in the B1R terminal, and the aircraft number will also be displayed on the board at the boarding gate.
(However, if you arrive at B1R early to wait for your flight, you may not be able to find this information, because the exact gate location has not been listed yet, which is different from the general method where the departure room number is the boarding gate number. )
The lighting in the waiting room is a bit dim, and there are toilets and water dispensers.
The circles on the central circular pillar are places for charging mobile phones. Just turn off the mobile phone and charge it (Picture 9)
Generally, people waiting at B1R need to take a transportation bus to the tarmac and carry their luggage onto the plane when boarding! (Figure 14)
📍Tiger Air Flights--Onboard Charging
Picture 15 This time I took Tiger Airways to Macau~ You can see the seat size at a glance 😆
⭐You cannot use mobile power on the plane. If you don’t have time to charge it in the waiting room, you can prepare a mobile phone charging cable. After the plane flies smoothly, the blue light of the charging hole will light up under the dining table and near the chair legs. Charging~~

Starlux A350 Business Class fun
#wecreate
The highlight of the trip! ❤️
With a J cabin so pretty, it is no wonder Starlux’s business class has garnered such rave reviews 🍀
The classy brown / black tones of the seat was such a delight for the almost 4-hour flight - fancy seat functions, electronic window, plenty storage space, zero gravity position, and of course fantastic headphones ✌🏻
The beef short ribs char siu is one of the best business class meals I’ve ever had in my life - I want to eat it again! Coupled with 4 servings of the Baileys Martini, the meal was memorable for sure. Especially when I knocked out for 30mins thereafter heh 🤣
Service was fantastic served up by the youthful crew and there was no sense of hurried service anywhere despite it being a full cabin. Kudos to the team for being prompt and polite to a fault 🎊
This marks the end of my Starlux-ury hop and I’m so glad I did it ✈️

Starlux Galactic Lounge chillax
#wecreate
Ah, STARLUX’S flagship lounge! 🔥
I almost didn’t get to experience this as I was given an invitation to Plaza Premium at check in and informed that the reason was because the airline was expecting full house. But I decided to chiong as fast as I can to beat the crowd anyways! 😂
So glad I did!
The shimmering brown tones of the lounge was such a welcome respite from the airport madness and I was ushered into peace and tranquility by the smiley staff who offered the on-demand breakfast menu 🍲
The lounge itself is not big and I was able to get some nice shots being the first pax at 545am. Solo seats and communal options were available, with a TV and magazine selection for those who need the distraction. 📺
Food wise, a small buffet selection is available with the usual breakfast-y stuff but the highlight is the on-demand menu! I tried both the speciality ramen (very salty leh) and soy bean set (not bad la) just to check them off. ✌🏻
Service was all smiley efficiency by the youthful team and soiled items were cleared fairly quickly as well 🍀
The space filled up quickly thereafter so please come early if you can to snag a spot! 🎊

EVA Air Airport VIP Lounge
#Taoyuan eat all you can eat #Evergreen VIP Room
Let’s fill our stomach before going out
Breakfast starts at 5:30 in the Evergreen VIP Room
Last time we were on the right after entering the venue, the dining area was relatively small.
This time, go to the left. The dining area and seats are larger.
There are a lot of hot foods, including more interesting foods such as tamagoyaki and French toast.
Then the alcoholic drinks are very good, I just drank a bottle of Birkin
Evergreen has Haagen-Dazs after dinner!
Oriental baked pudding is delicious

Detailed directions from Taoyuan Airport to the city 🚊
#TaiwanTravel
Today, I will review how to travel from Taoyuan Airport to Taipei City (Taipei Main Station) by train 🚇🚊, whether it is a Commuter Train or an Express Train, the method is the same. The pick-up and drop-off points are the same. Follow me!
Start from the immigration and customs checkpoint. Once you have your luggage, walk outside and turn left. Walk straight to the end of the road. Turn left again and follow the signs for MRT/ To High Speed Rail. Don't be afraid of getting lost.
Then, when you reach the end of the road, walk down the escalator 1 floor and you will see a sign for the station. Walk in and go straight to the automatic machine. Press to buy an Easy Card for traveling by train, metro, bus and can also be used to buy things in various shops. The first time you buy a card, the minimum is 500 NTD. The card is valid for 20 years. If you don't use it all, you can save it for the next trip or use it for shopping on the last day.
When you get down to the platform, there will be a sign showing the train times clearly. Those who are more convenient with express or commuter can choose. The times are slightly different (commuter stops at every station).
It takes about 50 minutes to reach Taipei Main Station. The fare is 150NTD per person. It's very convenient. Now we're ready to explore Taipei! 🚊

Neat and efficient airport
Taoyuan Airport is most likely the first port of entry if you are arriving in Taiwan.
This airport is very efficient and easy for transit as well as for arriving passengers. Do note that you need to fill up the arrival card before queuing up at the immigration line. The line can get long if there are many flights arriving at the same time.
What I like about this airport is its connection to Taipei city via Airport MRT. For 150 NT, you can get a comfortable ride to town.

My first experience on starlux from Taipei
On our recent trip to Taiwan, we had the opportunity to take starlux from Taipei to Singapore for the first time. I would say the experience was excellent as the food was sooooo good. Highly recommend and value for money. Other than that, the plane was very new and service on the plane was very good too. The check in was swift and easy. The flight was smooth and safe too.
