So , on the flight there, I bugged my local Taiwanese colleagues for other places to vist- and they suggested ZhongXiao DunHua - it's about three MRT stops from the Shandao station -
and yes.. it's yet another shopping area!!
I wanted time alone, and after a tricky game of cat and mouse with the rest of my colleagues, I soon found myself happily setting out to explore this new place.
It's suppose to be famous for selling cosmetic products and dresses! Ooooooh! I was excited. Nothing like the thrill of exploring a foreign land, of foreign language , by myself!
The shopping area is in the Ding Hao Departmental Square, hence once you arive at the ZhongXiao Dun Hua station, use exit 8.Now, I expected a sort of like an underground connecting shopping complex, or maybe a shopping complex NEXT TO the MRT ie the one in Nanjing.
But when I reached the exit, I came to a big road. When I turn left this is what I saw:
And to my right :
Gosh! It was a pretty busy street!!
After a few clumsy attempt at engaging the locals with my limited Mandarin vocabulary...
I found it! Ding Hao departmental store!!! *pats back *I didn't shop for too long, and about half an hour later, I decided to go hunt for 7/11 to buy Vy's papaya milk :p
The streets around the area is filled with cutesy cafes and stores- remind me alof of Apgujeong, in Incheon ,South Korea.I stumbled upon the cutest little petshop . EVER . Royal Princess Grooming Centre
I love love love poodles. So cute and round, and poofy and cuddly. Instantly made me miss my own two sweet monsters at home :( Spot the teeny toilet bowl ? Little black baby poodle was sitting on the toilet bowl when I first walked into the shop. SOOO Adorable.
I then decide to go around looking for Taiwanese petshops! :D
I found this shop; Puppy Heaven. I made friends with this little tot, Echo. Such a sweetie. Reminds me of the many gazillion reasons why I shall be leaving SG for KL soon, my monsters playing a major part of it.
Puppy Love
