As a second part of my trip to Taiwan i visited the South of the country. There is still so much to see of Taiwan and i'm excited i'll probably go back in november :barbTaiwan is also called Formosa, meaning 'beautiful island' and i wholeheartedly agree!
1) Luishi Tenseng is a mountaineous region where they grow orange day lillies. Every year in august and september, the place turns orange and it's a wonderful sight.
2) Daylilly
3) Orange day lillies galore - In the background is a small pagoda where you could sit and soak up some peace (until a group of chinese mainlanders come by off course)
4) Workers picking the daylillies (and no, i dont need to clean my sensor, these were dragonflies!)
Next stop was Green island, a small vulcanic island off the eastcoast. Used as a prison island for a long period, it is now open for the public. Thank god!
5) It's breathtaking!
6) The water was crystal clear and perfect for a swim! :thumb(much to the amazement and entertainment of the taiwanese and chinese who do not go for swims and think europeans are very peculiar people)
7) one of the best moments was just waiting for the sun to set on the beach
8) Some people getting back from a diving trip as the sun sets
9) The sun finally set so i got the shot i was hoping for :thumb
Hope you guys enjoyed going to Taiwan with me for a moment I hope to go back as soon as possible and i'm sure i'll come back with another bag full of memories and photos.
Thanks for viewing!
