Lishan - Undiscovered beauty 梨山原來這麼美

http://youtu.be/iqbhAn_Cj4s?hd=1

This is only a tiny part of it. I would like to see more of this beautiful back country. Clouds and fog like this can be seen all year round.

Seasonally, there are:
Red maple leaves in Autumn.
Snow in Winter.
Ping cherry blossoms in Spring, followed by white plum blossoms, then pink and white apple blossoms.

Looking forward to the next time I am there.

Hoping that this little time lapse sequence (shot on my camera which is about to poop out) will make it into our travel feature.

Daddy, would you like to sponsor me for a new camera and a lens? *wink wink*

Talking about falling in love with Lishan! This is by the visitors' center in Lishan. It's just down the way from the roundabout, a little bit off the paved path.

If you 're looking for amazing, red maple leaves without a crowd, Lishan is a good place to go.

Brrr in Lishan 梨山好冷！

We are now in Lishan 梨山. It is quite cold here (the red maple leaves say so too), especially coming from Taipei, where it was over 30C this past weekend. Now at 2041 in Lishan, it is about 12C. With no heater but a nice bathtub in my room, I think I'm going to have a soak, then crawl under the four layers of comforters and wool blankets.

Good night!
