@@Hamdledoc thanks for watching.

@@joezip6389 ya I had to retire the old one. The tropical sun is hard on stuff like that. I found a place that could stitch my logo onto a hat. Looks pretty good I think.

@@endlessjourneytravels Hat looks nazzy

@@joezip6389 when you are a big time celebrity like me you always have to look good. I look so good I go years without looking at myself. Lol

@@joezip6389 the trains here are very nice. After all if these years bouncing around on Thai trains these will spoil you. I have one coming up from the high speed rail down to the south.

@@GFamilyThai thank you very much. The show was amazing and the reason I came to Taipei. You guys need to come here and visit. You could make some great videos with all of the food here.

@@sbeers88 I walked through there this morning. The huge stage was almost already gone. Other than that you wouldn’t even know that a million people were here a few hours ago. Very efficient. It was cold last night but at least no rain, unlike today.

@@joezip6389 they had drones flying around but all the show was fireworks. The drone shows are ok but I still prefer fireworks. I was thinking the same thing. They do have 101 stories to load up fireworks. lol I went to the tower a couple years ago right before new years and the top observation deck was closed because they were setting up fireworks for the show. Was a good time seeing it. I was impressed with the efficiency of the city after with getting people on the mrt. I was back to my hotel by 1am and I was in a crowd of a hundred thousand people at least. Happy new year to you as well. I hope you get back over here again soon.

@@big_bang001 thank you very much. Was very nice to meet you. Having fun in Taipei now. Just finished watching the fireworks at the Taipei 101. Was an amazing show.

@@endlessjourneytravels I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the New Year celebration in Taipei. Welcome back to Taiwan again.

@@big_bang001 the fireworks was really amazing. I’m impressed by how efficient the city was at moving so many people after the show plus the clean up. I walked around yesterday morning and you couldn’t even tell that the fireworks happened a few hours before. I’m thinking about trying to go to the True Dragon Temple today. Have you been there before and would it be worth the effort to go. It seems far away and in the mountains but an interesting place.

@@endlessjourneytravels Taipei 101 New Year Firework started 20 years ago. The government has accurate SOP about the show. The True Dragon Temple is a vertical home for the dead.

@ thank you for the information. I was thinking of visiting there today but the weather is not the best. Maybe my next trip to Taiwan.

Nice video tho

@@EsaiasP I didn’t get a chance to go there. This was fun for me to visit. Was a lot like a market in Thailand is like. Thanks for watching and appreciate the info. I will try to go to Ziyou on my next trip there.

@ thank you! It was tough to film with so many people.

@@jimshelley8831 I am. It’s a bit cold but I will be back in Thailand after the new year where it will be back to super hot. I really enjoy coming to Taiwan and I’ve seen a bunch of new stuff this trip.

@@MrMcnaynay the online system is basically non existent. They will sell them a couple days early and the system has changed several times. Right now it’s just show up at the stadium and buy tickets. Maybe for next year they will change it up and have something that works. Generally there is no issue for tickets on game day except for big games against Buriram and cross town rival Mueng Thong. Even with those games guys will sell extra tickets in the parking lot next to the practice field.

@@backpackerwebs I think it was around 10am. I was on the second train from Bangkok to here. A good idea is to catch the first train, get off and explore the market and then you are there to see the second one come in while it’s a bit less crowded.

@@endlessjourneytravels Thanks for your information. I will stay in Thonburi for a week in the middle of January 2025. I would like to explore Samut Sakhon and vicinity. Are there any good restaurants there serving sea food?

@ that area has many places to eat seafood. There is a huge seafood market in that area and the fishing fleets dock nearby. Shouldn’t have any problems finding some good food.

@@endlessjourneytravels Thanks! Subscribed 😀

@ very good! Welcome!

@@อดุลย์ไขบรรเทา-ฏ8ณ what is saka rights?

@@อดุลย์ไขบรรเทา-ฏ8ณ thank you

@@อดุลย์ไขบรรเทา-ฏ8ณ thanks for watching and your continued interest in the channel.

@@lisha23 glad to help. I really enjoy going to Koh Samet. Most people stay on white sand beach but there are several others. I always stay at Ao Tubtim. It’s a little less crowded and still easy to get to. Here is a video of white sand beach if you want to see what it’s like. Sai Kaew Beach - Best Beach on Koh Samet Island Thailand - Day & Night th-cam.com/video/zvAyVv6IshY/w-d-xo.html

@@DiDi-px7bq have a great time when you go. Right now is a good time to visit. During rainy season it can be difficult since that part of Thailand gets so much rain.

@@lisha23 there are still lots of flowers to see. The fireworks are just for the special events so you won’t see them unless it’s during the annual flower show. The park is really lovely and you will have a good time there.

@@endlessjourneytravels I just checked your channel and learnt you have covered most of Thailand. I am traveling to Thailand for the first time in January 2025. Do you mind sharing your email address with me, I have a few questions / doubts about some tourist spots that I want to cover in Bangkok and khao yai. I'll be very grateful to you if you clear a few of my doubts. Thank you

@ no problem at all. I live in Thailand and have been here for 15 years so I can help with most everything. My email is endlessjourneytravels@gmail.com

@endlessjourneytravels thank you so much. I am sending you a mail right away.

@@quadrogue sounds like a good book. Who wrote it? I would like to read it as well to learn more about this site.

@@endlessjourneytravels By William Dalrymple. Ishanapura finds brief mention among the other influences of Indic religion/architecture in south-east Asia. I'm learning a lot from the book.

@ thank you. I will have to find it online and give it a read.

@@jvlao8722 it’s near the Queen Sirikit mrt station and just south of asoke (sukumvit) for the bts or mrt depending on which one you are on. Easiest from Chinatown is to take the mrt from wat monkol station to there and it’s a short walk.

@@joezip6389 hotels are pretty reasonable here. I’ve stayed around the main station in the ximian district. Everything is pretty clean all over. The place reminds me a lot of Japan.

@@DIL-i5r very nice. It’s easy to get to with lots of stuff. Thanks for watching!

@@joezip6389 I really like this market. I was after the Japanese style curry with pork but I couldn’t find it. I ate something after the sandwich that was terrible though. I had to pitch it, lesson learned. lol

@@endlessjourneytravels Hopefully it was not Pizza with mayo sauce!!!

@ no I’m not making that mistake again. Lol

@RussellKenny-y2m I did see lots of graffiti around but that seems to be the norm for Spain.

@@SirNova2o9 thank you very much. Glad you enjoyed it. To me this is the best temple to see in Taipei. I think I’ve been here 6 or 7 times and will return again next time I’m in Taipei.

@@Blazelightning-k4l thank you very much! I’ve been to Taiwan several times and I really enjoy it here. The people are amazing and the country is beautiful. You have a lot to be proud of.

@@อดุลย์ไขบรรเทา-ฏ8ณ thank you for watching.

@@joezip6389 this was a lot of fun to see. I was in this area yesterday again but I didn’t make a video of it because the weather was pretty nasty. I might try to see it later in the trip after the new year. I really wish I was a history teacher. Teaching math got in the way and now too old to change. lol I’ve never been to Pine Mountain Georgia. If it looked like this it must be pretty cool.

@@joezip6389 Taipei is a fun place to visit. Would be cool for you to stop for 3-4 days on your way to Thailand. I really like it here.

@@prapan6281 thank you for watching.

@SecretsofThailand one of my favorite beaches in Thailand.

@@mikeyboy726 very interesting. Do you know what the breed is of it? Appreciate the information.

@@mikeyboy726 I just found it. The breed is a Chinese Silkie. Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.

@@joezip6389 it’s a cool part of the world. An easy 3.5 hour flight to Taipei. Doing the trip this year with a couple buddies and having a good time.

@@thomaslindbergMarielund I feel the same way. You can only do the ordinary from here but at least it’s still open.

@@阿咪將 I’m in Taipei now. I really like seeing this shrine with the changing of the guards so I came to it again.

😚Merry Christmas to you 🎅🏻🎉🎊

@ thank you very much. I hope to find a Christmas market or see the Christmas activities here in Taipei tomorrow.

Have a nice time🎅🏻🥳🎉

@ thank you very much.

@@Inside_Burma it’s a nice tradition to see. It definitely takes being an early riser to see. I’ve been to it twice and have enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!
