    I initially had a little bit of difficulty finding the place but it was due to me taking a wrong turn. The site is famous for being one the best surviving and most complete example of Chinese garden architecture. The residence is made up of a large garden with various buildings spread throughout a compact area and one large building (the mansion).

    There was no admission fee and the whole area is very picturesque. In my opinion, some of the architecture and landscape looked fantastical. This is more of a relaxing place and since they limit the amount of people that can come in each day, it isn't completely packed with people but there quite a few tour groups. I would recommend visiting here if you enjoy learning about Asian architecture and aesthetics and want some relatively quiet exploration.

    Our time in Korea had come to an end, and while were a little sad to leave this lovely country with such nice people, we were really excited to visit my husband's nephew in Taipei. Also, unlike our time in Korea, this would be all vacation as neither of us would be working while in Taiwan, whoo hoo!

    I awoke energized and ready for my first full day of exploration in Taipei. My first order of business was to purchase a day pass for the Taiwan MRT that grants unlimited rides until midnight. I found the Taipei subway system to be clean, efficient, and very easy to navigate. It saved my life today. Yesterday, I decided to walk everywhere and it …

    ... madness, although admittedly not in such an eye-popping manner. It sounds quite normal - an old Chinese family estate house with a nice walled garden. The odd part is it's surroundings. This being the north east of Taiwan, the green fields that once ...
