Taiwan – Random photos
These are a bunch of photos that were out of order!
Taiwan – sculptures, turtles and rabbits.
I think they eat the rabbits. Art takes many forms!
Taiwan – The Pagoda in the mountains and the golden Buddha – Photos
Coming out of the Taroko gorge we found ourselves up in the mountains. There was a pagoda and temple up in the mountains with a large gold or white buddha.
Taiwan – Taroko Gorge – photos
The Taroko gorge is one of the marvels of Taiwan. It wends through steep mountains with spectacular views. Narrow roads, tunnels and sheer drops. Fabulous.
Taiwan – Into the mountains – pagodas, beehives and mountain streams.
We were heading for the famous gorge. The route took us up into the mountains past picturesque pagodas and gold Buddhas
Taiwan – Out to the far end of the island. Fire out of the ground and forts.
We travelled to the far end and the sea, up into the hills and down into the valleys. We found a place where fire came out of the ground and discovered an old fort.
Taoist God at Lotus Lake – Taiwan
The Lotus Lake felt like a cross between Disneyland and Chinese religions. They like their stuff big and gaudy. The Taoist status was just that. The whole place felt a bit plastic and shoddy – though interesting.
Taiwan by Night – Photos
Taipei is pretty bright.
Taiwan – A Buddhist Temple – Photos
There aren’t too many old structures in Taiwan. It is a country ravaged by earthquakes. All the old buildings have been flattened.
This big temple complex is quite new. I just love the colours and vitality.
