One day when it's winter When the tall oak groans in northern winds When cruel frost creeps white beneath the bark And twigs once sappy and green Shake brittle and dry in the darkening Then come to my door Let yellow light spill out Let me wrap you in warm Let summer kisses bring back roses What wingspan glides in the blue August skies Soar and circle Paired in gentle harmony, one other Melt, then-- Be with me

Taiwan my dream country

Going to Taiwan for tour is my dream all the while.. When can this dream finally come true?? For the time being can only work hard towards the goal. Athough still don't have chance to go there but can see pictures also not bad below is what I found include those theme park wow see already more feel like going.



Taipei 101 World's tallest building in Taipei

Janfusun Fancy World (剑湖山世界)






The first thing one sees approaching Janfusun Fancy World (劍湖山世界) by car, bus or scooter from Douliou City (斗六市) in Yunlin County (雲林縣) is its giant Ferris wheel towering over the countryside.
Even though this is to be expected, as this place had a Ferris wheel 17 years before Taipei and it long ago became part of the national consciousness, it is still a surprise as it first looms into view, turning magisterially in the afternoon sunshine, with the name "Janfusun Fancy World" emblazoned across it. For most of this time, the Ferris wheel appeared on the theme park's logo and in all its advertising. This is no longer so, however.

Hualien Ocean Park (花蓮远雄海洋公园)




By the Sea, About the sea, A must-See

The 51-hectare (126-acre) Hualien Ocean Park (花蓮海洋公園) is Taiwan’s first theme park with oceanic ecology as its raison d’etre. Sitting high on slopeland over the rolling Pacific not far south of the east-coast city of Hualien (花蓮), the park offers an unbeatable combo of family fun and


The park is one of Taiwan's largest theme parks. The two major attractions are the Dolphin Lagoon and the Underwater Kingdom, but there are many amenities that carry not the scent or the hint of the sea. They're just there for the fun of it. These attractions include the Crystal Castle, a ferris wheel, and a cable-car ride. Adding my own two cents, I dare say that the entire experience is mightily heightened by the fact that from almost all spots in the park you get a bird's-eye view of the sea and the pleasure of the bracing scent of the ocean wafting up from the breakers down below.


The Sea or Not the Sea


There are eight separate theme zones. Let's visit them now:

Discovery Island


There are four distinct areas to take in – the Sea Lion Show, Seal and Sea Lion Habitat Pool, Discovery Island Aquarium, and Ocean Doctor Lab. The dramatic, exhilarating world of the deep blue ocean is brought to life via the most advanced concepts in aquarium design and operation. Note that the Sky Lift station is located in this zone; while riding up to the Crystal Castle above it all you can soak in the breathtaking views of the mighty, often un-pacific Pacific.

Dolphin Lagoon


In this large aquarium-cum-lagoon, which has a capacity of 12,000 tons of water, kids and wannabe kids are completely surrounded with activity and sensory experience. In the Dolphin Show, Mermaid Show, Swimming with Dolphins activity, and Under the Sea facility one can get up close to our marine-creature friends and fellow Earth-dwellers – even hands-on at times.


Underwater Kingdom


The park's promoters, aptly, state that the rides in this marine themed zone are the next best thing to a cartoon world. Children delve eagerly into a world of legend and mystery, exploring the Seabed Palace, tackling the Little Mermaid's Swing Shells and Crazy Submarine, and cheering their way into sometimes hysterical happiness on Wally Whale's Rollercoaster.




There are quite lot of theme park and interesting place in Taiwan visit the Website for more info.
