Nanzhuang-南庄

Nanzhuang is a small town in Miaoli County, Taiwan, and famous for its narrow Osmanthus Alley.  This town is located in the mountain area. There are several beautiful natural attractions near it. Visitors can buy an one-day ticket of the tourist bus to reach the town and other scenic spots.

Local Market

Traditional markets are still popular in local communities of the cities even though huge supermarkets have been booming in Taiwan.  People can get fresh food and cheap living items there.

Neiwan 內灣

Recently I visited Neiwan in Hsinchu County with my family. It's a lovely small town and has become one of the hot spots for tourists. We acrossed its famous and old bridge soon after we got there. Then we walked through its main street, which is full of the shops and restaurants. Before the noon, the street already filled with visitors and eaters.

Hsinchu Marathon

After many and many  years, I recently resettle myself in my dear hometown, Hsinchu.  The city held its first Marathon last month in the early morning. On my way to a park near where I live, I saw people from the communities cheering for the runners.

Temple Prayers

When a new year begins, many people in Taiwan like visiting temples to pray for their life, family and fortune. Leong San Temple in Taipei is one of most famous temples and has become the most popular one for the locals and foreigners. It's always very crowded inside the temple.

Train Passengers

Taiwan is a small island with a huge population,  more than 23 million. No matter where I visit, the places are often crowded with people, and many of them are smartphone addicts or phubbing. This phenomenon, phubbing in everywhere, pervades in most Asian cities. 

Back to Taiwan

After more than twenty years being away from Taiwan, I decided to return to the island, where I was born and grew up. I love the life and the weather in the Middle East, but it's time to go home and to explore the beauty of the Asia.
