Beitou is one of my favorite spots in Taipei--the hot springs are magical, there are cool museums to explore, and the area is quite walkable. I've visited twice in the last few weeks and I hope to be able to spend even more time there over the next several months--there's just so much to discover. 
I am especially fond of the Beitou Public Library--so fond of it, in fact, that I selected it as the site for our wedding photos a few weeks ago! It's the first LEED platinum-certified (I think) building in Taiwan and I'd love to go back some day to hang out and browse the stacks. The last time I was there it looked like they had a lovely collection focused on green design and construction and wildlife conservation.
And--oh!--the folk art! Who can get enough folk art? In Beitou, one does not lack for folk art.
It looks warm in Taiwan. I want to go to there.
ReplyDeleteIt's warmish! Come be to here!
ReplyDeleteI love libraries! Maybe I should come, too!
ReplyDeleteI'm on board for any discovery. And I bet they have vegetables, which I miss so much.
