If a few more people got off their motorcycles and out of their cars and walked more of course it would be even better.

It's interesting to re-examine Taiwan from a foreigner's point of view and it reminds me of a seminar (intercultural communication) which I took at school last year. Hrm... just want to tell you that as a citizen of Tainan, I'm so glad that you love this place. :-) A professor teaching Cheng-Kung University once complained to me about the traffic in Tainan and the unavailability of sidewalks there. What do you think about it? Hi, I happened to visit your blog a couple of weeks ago.

My sister visited in 2004, but my parents are probably too old to make the trip. So I am always glad to hear and read about when others’ parents can make it to the Beautiful Isle. David’s parents are fortunate to have such a well qualified guide as their son. Check out the cute photo of his parents in the opening paragraph. David, I think you favor your Mum!

Andrew, The waterfall is in the Neidong Forest Recreation Area. It is near Wulai in Taipei County. It is very easy to reach it. I blogged about <a href="http://blog.taiwan-guide.org/2006/10/hiking-in-wulai/" rel="nofollow">hiking in the area</a> a while back. Prince Roy, many people in Taiwan said that!

Mine were here a few months ago, but the long flight from England left them quite sick for much of their time here. Where is that waterfall? Andy Hi David

Seems like your parents had a great time. Mine were here a few months ago, but the long flight from England left them quite sick for much of their time here.

Where is that waterfall?

Your parents certainly have the best guide they could find in Taiwan. I was such a lousy guide when my foreign friends visited me. Ah I follow my nose and find the spinach lady.

I just came back home from Neidong, it is a gorgeous forest park, I like it very much. It’s great that your family had great time in Taiwan.

Mark, in the end we didn't visit many temples in Tainan. We made up for it in Lugang though. The Longshan Temple there is very special. Thanks to everyone for their comments.
