It’s time to say goodbye to “the island of the world’; the beautiful mountains and sea, friendly global strangers, variety of creatures, colorful plants, and flowers, and interesting food, all of which left me many memorable moments and added a great theme to my global trip.
I revisited one of the most popular mountains Yangmingshan as I only went to the Camila garden and smelled the flowers on an early spring day. This time I gathered enough information and planned to visit a few tourist spots there.
On the warmer mid-spring day, the Camila garden became more colorful with purple red white, blue flower blossoms. I headed to the observation pavilion. It has a very greenery environment Because it was a weekday, I only saw a group of senior people coming here for hiking. After walking down steps for about fifteen minutes, I arrived at the other tour spot “flower clock” which was a plant and flower-made round clock that not only decorated the surroundings but also functioned and ran the bell.
After another five-minute walk, I reached another waterfall tour spot, at which the lucid water fell down from the mountain peak and created the phenomenon. In the city of “New Bamboo,” I didn’t see the bamboo lands. But here on this mountain, there were bamboo forests.
Then I took the mini shuttle bus to another tourist attraction a few miles away. Bamboo Lake on the mountain top. People sell mountain-produced goods such as bamboo shoots, mushrooms, different fresh fruits, or other packaged foods. You can also visit a hidden blossom farmland garden. It’s already late afternoon, I didn’t enter it. It was a great mountain that had been a bit overly developed and now become a transportation hub at which you could take the buses going towards different directions of the metropolitan city.
On the other day, I also visited Yeliu Geographical Park on the coastline of Taipei. The exquisite oceanfront with different shapes and sizes of rocks with green mountains as background created unique landscapes. I think that’s an impressive representation of the ocean coast of the Taiwan Strait.
The town of Danshui meaning “light water” also attracted lots of tourists and local people to visit. They held religious events on the weekend. You can sit at the coast, tasting local snacks bought from the nearby food stalls, watching ships running through promptly, and enjoying a wonderful day here.
Our natural world is fantastic so on my last day here, I visited the Taipei Zoo and met varying animals to say goodbye. It was a spacious park with strong plants. Lots of colorful flowers blossom on the trunks of tall trees and look lovely.
I hung around for a couple of hours here to visit the birds' garden where peacocks, swans, turkeys, and many others walked near the shrubs or stood at the lakeside. There were giraffes elephants camels monkeys black bears etc, at the African animal park, and some small animals at the Australian zone. A group of squirrel-sized golden monkeys played around on the trees, very cute. But the large-sized animals such as apes, giraffes, and horses seem to look sad as they lose their freedom and are locked in the fence for a long time
Of course, the pandas’ home was one of the most popular spots to visit, it was crowded there but people lined up and moved forward to meet two pandas. each of them lives in their glass home eating bamboo; climbing up and down; taking naps; are they happy there? Can we hug the pandas in the peach blossom village in their hometown someday?
