Hsinchu's Flower market is a unique market that sells half food and half gardening products in Hsinchu City. It is only open on the weekends, but you can often find lots of people here buying plants and seeds to make their gardens. It is a worthwhile visit if you are in Hsinchu. 

Background:
Hsinchu's Weekend Flower Market was established in 1984 by Hsinchu's agricultural association.
The market was closed for three months during the summer of 2021 because of the Pandemic.
In addition to snacks, gardening tools, and local agricultural products, the market also sells many local art and craft items. 

Price:
Free
​
Hours:
8 AM - 7 PM Saturdays and Sundays

How to get there:
By car/scooter: From central Hsinchu, turn onto Shipin Road, and park near the south side of Hsinchu Park. There is an underground parking lot and paid parking on the side of the road. The temple is on the south side of the park. 
By TRA: Hsinchu Confucius temple is only a ten-minute walk from Hsinchu TRA station; it lies south of the station in Hsinchu Park.​

Growing Bananas In Taiwan 外國人種香蕉的日記

Out of control prices of bananas at PX Mart in 2020.
Some would say Ecuador is the banana capital of the world, and that is probably right, but I’m sure Taiwan bananas are just as good. One of the great things about living in Taiwan is you can buy fresh bananas on the street almost everywhere, so if you are a banana connoisseur like myself you will not have worry about bananas going bad (I eat bananas single every day).
有人會說厄瓜多爾是世界香蕉之基地，但我相信台灣的香蕉也一樣好。住在台灣的好處之一就是到處都可以在街上買到新鮮的香蕉，所以如果你像我一樣是個香蕉鑑賞家，你就不用擔心香蕉壞掉的沒香蕉吃（我每天吃香蕉）。
