Street view of Taipei on Valentine's day

As Valentine just passed, Taipei is a  place full of wonder and love indoor and outdoor alike.



Let's start at a park near National Palace museum, which is currently hosts an exhibition of "A History of the World in 100 Objects" By attending the exhibition, you will be able to feel how trivial the human life is compared to the long developed history of the world. 

At the same time, in the Taipei international book exhibition, numerous activities are in full blossoms with forums, mini concerts, and workshops with authors. 


The New Zealand was chosen as the major theme this year, Aboriginal dancers from the New Zealand attracted the crowd by using their distinguished vocal sound.  


 As for the nearby streets near Taipei 101, a streets artist dedicate his attention to drawing a sweet and cute girl. 




Even night draws upon the sky and the mega tower bids visitors goodbye, there are still much more to be expected on the Taipei street,

Am afternoon dedicated for gallery tour

What can be more rewarding that immersing yourself in the art scene in Taipei. for a lazy afternoon, let's start a one day gallery tour in the Taipei buzz hub Zhongxiao Fuxing.  


1. first stop is the Red Gold fine art that currently display Korean and Taiwanese artists' ink artworks.  The artists from different culture choose the same materials to display their perspective on the paper. 


They are no longer concerned about the subject matter in a discernible form;rather they use the blurred form in reference to familiar object in reality but not exactly resembling the object. 

Observers are left with the freedom to project their own imagination on the draws of the lines and dots. 















2. The second stops comes to Carol's exquisite artwork of the silver pencil balls that are either displayed on table or attached to a wall. Her works represent a almost lost handicraft from U.S. 












3. The third stop comes to a Lin gallery that simultaneously have regular exhibition of their own signed artists and an special collection dedicated to "On the scene." 

















4. The last gallery comes to Lee gallery that have two young artists' work have their subject matters related to their response regarding the surrounding environment, changing society and stressful mind. 










The gallery trip is not only focusing on all the knowledge pertaining to the exhibitions; it is more like getting yourself exposed to different perspective drawn by artists.

7 Totally Unexpected - and Affordable - Places You Will Want to See in 2015

Taipei
Fulltime traveler and blogger Dave Dean explained the lure of this city: “My pick for an unexpected 2015 travel destination is Taiwan. I've just spent 2.5 weeks there, and to be honest, it blew me away. It has a quite remarkable street food scene in Taipei, some gorgeous beaches in the south and east of the country, fantastic hiking (and scooter-riding!) in Taroko Gorge and extremely friendly people everywhere. I honestly don't know why it doesn't get more attention from Western travelers - I saw very few during my time there.” The four-star Howard Plaza Hotel - very near the city center - is $135 per night in January at Hotels.com.
