On our way back from Taiwan’s southernmost point, I ran around a bit to try to find a decent vantage point for a sunset shot. Despite the power lines, this was undoubtedly the best view from the parking lot. Featured in the photograph is Kending National Park’s Eluanbi Lighthouse, built in 1881.

Taichung Photowalk Roundrobin [August edition]

On Saturday, I met up with bloggers Mark Forman and David Reid for a photowalk in downtown Taichung. Our walk took us through areas near Taichung Train Station. Walking across from the station we began our tour through a once robust area which has decreased in importance as Taichung’s center of gravity has shifted. The photo used at the top of this post is of one of the many abandoned buildings which are prevalent on that side of town. We walked through the Jade Market and Taichung Park before heading to Yizhong Street and completing our loop back to the train station.

While in Pingdong, we checked out an area of the coast during low tide. We visited a lovely spot adjacent to Bitou Fishing Port [鼻頭漁港]. The small road leading to the fishing port is directly opposite the entrance for the Uni-Resort [統一墾丁] on HWY 26.

I’ve decided to stop compiling Weekly Links. I hope readers found them helpful during the year or so I posted them. I’ve recently had a drastic work schedule change and in the upcoming future I’m expecting an even more drastic lifestyle change.

Nanwan [南灣] is located in Pingdong [屏東] - Taiwan’s southernmost county.
Here are a few pictures from our recent trip south. We were blessed during the trip with fabulous weather. Although it was summer vacation for students, most of the places we went were largely free of crowds. Perhaps most people were inside avoiding a suntan or busy going to full-day English summer camps like the unfortunate children who attend the school I work at.
