did you hear any Japanese spoken while you were on the East coast?

No, mostly Taiwanese and some Aboriginal languages.

Incredible! That's one magnificent sky. Do you know why they have a torah gate there?

Thanks Carrie. I'm not sure why it's there - it's either fairly new or very recently restored. 2km or so further south used to be a big Shinto Shrine but whether this is connected to the ruins is something I'm unsure about.

It's very rare to hear Japanese these days unless they're tourists. But many people learn Japanese hear in classes at language school.

I love the combination of the torii and the sky. Where in Hualien did you take this picture?

BTW, doesn't "torah" refer to sacred Jewish writings? :)

Very good image. Fantastic shot there. I am surprised to find this in Hualien

Roentarre, thanks for dropping by and leaving a comment. I'm glad you like it.

Thanks. This was along the bike path near the main harbour - just south of the fishing harbour.
