I visit this city to do the inspection on one of our supplier’s factory. I use the HSR (High Speed Rail) from Taipei to Kaohsiung. The ticket price is NTD $1630 / person. Let’s skip the inspection, after my work is done, there are some free time that I can use to travel around Kaohsiung City before I go back to Taipei. My choice is to go to the infamous Twins Pagoda in this city.
This is the temple or shrine in front of the twins pagoda. I really like the temple or shrine building in china, they have a nice and unique structure.
The Infamous Twins Pagoda.
You can come inside pagoda through the mouth of statue. He..he…he…What a big mouth. This place didn’t take a fee for the entrance, but if you give the donation to the keeper inside you will be given a postcard.
Inside the mouth, there are some stairs and wall painting in each side of the wall. I think it’s look like a chinese history, but I don’t understand the language so I didn’t bother with it.
In this place it’s not only have twins pagoda, but there are four or five unique statue or building in the middle of the lake. Ancient chinese people really like to build something in the middle of the lake or pond. Is this to create a romantic atmosphere ?
This place makes me want to take picture in every corner.
Ah, here is another building beside the twins pagoda though I don’t know the name.
The mouth is used for the entrance door too.
After go through the entrance, you will find the pagodas and the pathway that lead to the gazebo in the middle of the lake.
Here the view from the gazebo. This place is really good to lazy around. The wind makes me want to sleep here.
Actually, there more buildings in this place but because of the limited time I have, I can’t visit them all. And today my last day in Taiwan, bye bye Taiwan~ I'll visit again in the future to explore more place in this country.
