Taiwan day 17 Taitung : 太麻里金针山 TaiMaLi JiZhen Mountain - 多良车站 DuoLiang Station - 滨海公园 BinHai Park - 国庆焰火 National Day Firework

0930 - Woke up late as I am so tired yesterday. We went to the famous breakfast stall 早点大王 but it was prepared to closed. It closed at 9:30am. Then we went to other breakfast stall 中华早餐 which has lomg queue too. We waited the food for an almost half hour.

1130 - Then we departed to TaiMaLi which is half hour ride from the Taitung town. The coast view along the road was amazing. After reached TaiMaLi town, to go to the JinZhenShan to view the JinZhen (Day Lily) flower view is another 12 km uphill. The road is quite dangerous as there are a lot of sharp corner and the cliff look quite steep.

1230 - When almost reached the daylily flower view place, there are a lot of area can view which plant by different stall. We went to the one that have large area of flower. It was steep a place but nice to take the photo. After took enough photo, we also called the fried day lily to eat. It was like the fried abalone mushroom.

Then rode to the DuoLiang train station which is half hour from the TaiMaLi town. It is famous for taking the photo for the train and the blue sea.

1630 - Rode back to Taitung town which took almost an hour journey. We headed to the HaiBing Park. After bought some food, we parked our scooter in the park as today have their national day firework show near this park. There were many people setting up their tripod. So I had to quickly find a good place and set up. We knew that the firework show will be started in 7pm. But there were local men said that the firework show starting at 8pm and there was one firework that can shoot over 600 feet high which only two countries had fired it. Since I need to return the scooter at 9pm before the shop closed, I leave and went to filled up the scooter tank first. After come back, while waiting for the firework, there was sudden rain and most people ran away and even those photographer that had stand by the camera. After awhile, the rain stopped. At 8pm, we can view the nice firework show and I took lot of firework photos with tripod too. Until 8:40pm, the main firework was still not yet present. We had to leave the place. When reaching the scooter, we turned back and saw the 600 feet firework. It was very high and will out from my camera capture area. But it nice to know high how it was. After this 600 feet firework ended, scooters and cars were already departed back but I was still prepared to ride the scooter. All were like rushing back. At 15 minutes to 9pm, I rode very fast and there were a lot of road traffic control. At last, we reached the rental shop on time but the shop is not yet closed =.=''
