It's been a full week, enough to see many places and go back to some, make little discoveries, connect up some dots, jump to some conclusions, revise them, revise them, revise them!Here are some pictures to test whatever conclusions you've come to - or tempt you to leap to some of your own! (The picture above is my favorite for some reason.)
• Confucius Temple, a bit more sober than the Buddhist and, especially, the Taoist ones, is a replica of the temple in Confucius' hometown.
• Chiang Kai-Shek smiling benevolently in his Memorial.
• One of Taipei's famous night markets, where I looked a lot but didn't in the end dare eat.
• Decoration atop the roof of the Hsia-Hai Temple of the city god in Dihua Road.
• Motor- cyclists at night - notice all the children!
• Scene in the back of one of the gardens by the National Palace Museum.
• Young people in one of the overflowing streets of weekend Danshui.
• Volunteers leading the singing of hymns to Guanyin and Amida at Longshan Buddhist Temple, Taipei.
• Longshan Temple, Danshui, completely engulfed by a covered market, including many fishmongers!
Bye bye!
