Taiwan Trip Day 7 - Final Day in Taiwan - Peace Garden

PLEASE ASK PERMISSION BEFORE YOU RE POST MY PHOTOS ON TO YOUR BLOG. THERE ARE SOME BLOGGERS WHO DID NOT ASK MY PERMISSION AND REPOST MY PHOTOS WITHOUT THE COURTESY OF LINKING BACK TO MY BLOG. THIS IS LIKE STEALING. PEOPLE, I HAVE SPEND MUCH TIME TAKING PHOTOS AND DOING HOMEWORK ON MY TRAVELLING INFORMATION AND KINDLY SHARE THESE INFORMATION TO ANYONE INTERESTED IN THEM. IF NECESSARY I WILL POST SCREEN SHOT OF YOUR BLOG TO SHOW YOUR BAD MANNERS OF STEALING MY PHOTOS. THE MOST DISGUSTING THING THEY DID WAS TO SCREEN SHOT MY PHOTO AND CORP OFF MY BLOG TITLE AND REPOST IN THEIR BLOG.

Surprised to see a beautiful park near our hotel. Later I learnt that the park was named 228 Peace Memorial Park. It has a long history and the park contains a number of memorials to victims of the 228 Incident of 1947, including the Taipei 228 Memorial that stands at the center of the park. The National Taiwan Museum stands at the park's north entrance. The park also features a bandshell and exercise areas. You can read more from wikipedia.

Nice to see a famous statue at the park. The statue was that of a great man, Confucius.






Saw lots of beautiful pavilions in the park.

Lots of locals using the park to do morning exercises.

The park is really beautiful with lots of nature and birds


From the end of the street where our hotel was, we could spot the museum in the park.

The museum contains history of the park.

Saw this peepul tree in the park. I think it is also known as bodhi tree.
