2 weeks in Taiwan : Flora expo

En français
On the next day, I spend the afternoon at the Flora expo or more accurately 臺北國際花卉博覽會. It presented art and flowers from different countries in several pavilion. It was kind of crowed as it was one of the last week-end of the exposition and we had to wait to see some parts, some were already over booked for the day as well. It was interesting and at the end of the day there was a representation of dance on water which turned out to be something totally different from what I was expecting.

2 weeks in Taiwan : 陽明山國家公園

En français
The next day we went hiking a bit in the 陽明山國家公園 (Yangmingshan National Park) we took a bus which took us from places to places. First we went for lunch in a restaurant near a plantation of calla lilies, then we went to see the volcano 七星山(seven stars mountain) which is extinct but still spread vapor of sulfur. Then we went to bath our feet in the hot spring which was pretty relaxing.
