台湾九份~怀旧之旅
九份位于台湾台北县瑞芳镇,早期因为盛产金矿而兴盛,矿坑挖掘殆尽后从而没落。1990年代后,因电影《悲情城市》一片于九份取景,九份的独特旧式建筑、坡地以及风情,透过此片而吸引国内外的注目,也为此小镇重新带来生机,目前已经成为一个很受欢迎的观光景点。
位于台湾东北部,临山靠海,与基隆山遥遥相望;整个小镇座落于山坡地上,也因此形成了独特的山坡和阶梯式建筑景观。
九份的怀旧景观吸引许多观光客,主要聚集在基山街、竖崎路及轻便路等街道。基山街又称“暗街”,无论是平日或假日皆有络绎不绝的拥挤人潮;竖崎路是九份的直向道路,是一条阶梯路,有很多观景茶馆聚集于此街道。旧道口(基山街口)也设有观景台,可以从九份观赏北海岸的绵延海景。
基山街内商家聚集,有很多九份旧式纪念艺术品,基山街内的九重町客栈是九份一个旧式建筑中的佳作,橘黄色灯光也给人怀旧的印象。竖崎路则是全然不同的景观,很多旧式建筑都聚集在此,观景茶馆聚集,其中也可看到九份最著名的建筑,也是全台湾第一个电影院──升平戏院。至于轻便路,则有不少民宿聚集,有九份金矿城怀旧壁画,还有一些花店也在轻便路上。

Hello Ho Chi Minh!

The making of Rice Paper, used for spring rolls....
Hello Hanoi!
It's more peaceful and relaxing in Hanoi....
Spacious hotel....
See the difference in our clothings between Ho Chi Minh and Hanoi... there's a diff of at least 12-15 degrees celsius.. it's quite chilly in Hanoi..
Halong Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage site which features thousands of limestone karsts and isles in various sizes and shapes. Worth visiting...fresh air with beautiful scenery...
There was a legend saying that Halong Bay (下龙湾) was the place where dragon descended from heaven...thus Vietnamese believe that they are the descendants of Dragon... 龙的传人...

Hello Vietnam!
I studied Basic Conversational Vietnamese during my NUS days which was at least 10 yrs ago...I can only remember "Chi Que Kong? (How are you?)" and "Toi La.... (I am...)". haha.. I had wanted to visit this country to feel its culture...finally had the chance in Jan 09 to travel to Ho Chi Minh (Saigon) & Hanoi (capital of Vietnam)...
Experiencing the life of Vietnamese on a sampan...rather shaky... wearing their iconic bamboo hat 斗笠 did help to protect against the sunlight..
