Hengchun
Old Town and Hot Springs tour
Welcome to TAIWAN, I am Poyu Lin
I love to travel ,love wandering around in Taiwan
Now, I am at Pingtung, where are we off to today?
Follow me into the Taiwan Tour Bus and find out.
Hello! good Morning, Welcome to join our Hengchun
Old Town and Hot Springs tour
This half-day trip takes about 5 hours and there is
an English tour guide!
If you switch on your GPS and walk around the city
walls, you can see what Hengchun Town looks like over
100 years ago.
Our first stop is Hengchun Old Town, built in 1875,
these structures was built for military defense purposes.
It is also currently the best-preserved Old Town in
Taiwan.
I also figured that the westgate, it��s actually face
on the North side, isn��t that interesting?
How come Westgate doesn't face west? No one knows
the real answer to that question. The fengshui myths
of Hengchun have brought lots of legendary stories.
Next, we arrive at FuAn Temple in Checheng built in
1662, It looks great now because of all the repair
and renovations over the years.
This temple is ove 300 years old ,Poyu, do you know
which is the first land of God in this temple?
Is that the biggest one?
No��Actually, the first is just in front of the biggest
one. There is a mini temple. In two land of God statues
inside,at the right side one!
Taiwan��s traditional an incense is the connection
between people and gods, we also venerate and burn
offerings to our gods and these are symbolic for gratitude
and respect.
Normally when we burn our offerings we have to fold
them and then throw it into the censer, but is another
way . Look ~
Scientifically, this is a chimney effect, but religiously
they have another name, god��s money counter.
Checheng has lots of local specialty, for example
onions, Hongren��s Duck Eggs, and another must try
delicacy Green bean mash, it made from green beans
after peeling off it��s skin.
You can have green bean mash either hot or cold, I
ordered ice one
Taste good, marvelous
The last stop of todays schedule is Hsi Chung River,
this is the most southern hot spring in Taiwan, founded
during the Japanese period. Its one of the four major
hot spring area in Taiwan. The hot spring water is
carbonate and clean. It is also odorless.
In the past, the residents here had to go cross the
river four times to go outside, so people named it
Hsi Chung River.
So Why is hot springs, so famous here?
You can dated be back to the Japanese occupation.
the royalty traveled and enjoyed the hot spring here,
than it became popular after that.
Hsi Chung River hot spring contains lots of minerals,
after a bath your skin will became so tender, that's
why its called ��a beauty��s bath��, different seasons
has their different pleasures while taking a bath
in the hot spring,and ��Im going to try something specials
now~
This fish are "hot spring fish",or you can
called them ��Doctor Fish��, rightnow I am put my feet
into the water
Oh My God! They kissing my feet
Come to try it when you have time,I am Poyu Lin, enjoy
your time in Taiwan! Chow��
