BCR posted:Having visited Beijing and north east cities, how does Taipei compare for nature and greenery? Taipei is surrounded by forested hills and mountains, Yangmingshan is a national park nearby. Or you can take the subway one stop past the Taipei 101 building station and hike Elephant Mountain. This is good, because you might not want to be on a moped in Taiwan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMHjqgB7MCw Having the "popular in Taiwan" youtube channel show up on my Youtube is pretty awful, most days.

I've seen both and I'd say the Mona Lisa is over rated. The meat shaped stone is properly rated. Also the cabbage has two bugs on it and lol if saw it and you didn't see both. Go back and look again.

Angela Christine posted:Is it a rock that was carved to look like meat, or just a rock somebody dug up and thought looked like meat. If the rock looks like meat naturally, is this proof that god(s) exist and like to play pranks on starving peasants? That's part of the mystery of the meat shaped stone. (the skin was carved and stained. http://www.npm.gov.tw/en/Article.aspx?sNo=04001103 - also close ups of it where it looks really tasty. Seriously it looks 100 percent like the giant hunks of stewed bacon you can get in China)

I taught English in Taiwan. The worst question you could ask a kid is "why?". Complete incomprehension.

Magna Kaser posted:That's a big chain that originated in Taiwan. They serve you curry in a plate shaped like a squat toilet. I never went there because i heard the food was poo poo. I guess it never took off on the mainland since they didn't serve it on a plate shaped like a sidewalk.
