Hi friends :)

When i had viewed these photos in SSP , i had tears in my eyes...maître Giallo, these pics' author, has really captured Taiwan's soul and it would have been a crime to enjoy them alone.

This thread is my little ode to that wonderful island in the Pacific. I only have pictures on my computer from 2005, so unfortunately I can't do a complete retrospective. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this tour.

Ain't gonna forget about you anytime soon, Formosa.

OMG... this guy is an artist...

THANK YOU SOOO MUCH for sharing this with us!

I miss Taiwan so much...

don't mention it. :)

and don't forget to come back to our dear island from time to time..(i had been there during my february holidays, it really was great.)

Nice pictures, really crazy camera skills! Wow! Thanks for sharing. :)

Beautiful...

Chinese girl hauling an umbrella on the beach, nice.

Lincoln memorial knock-off in Taipei, nice.

Lincoln memorial knock-off in Taipei, nice.
Took me a while to get it but I'm assuming you're talking about this picture?

Do you know how insulting it is to call this a "Lincoln memorial knock-off"?

Some people don't process their thoughts before they speak... :sleepy:

Beautiful. I love all the sights and sounds of Taiwan.
