Pleasant 25 degree C temperature, beautiful blue beaches, yummy street food 4 for under $10! Taiwan still remains an awesome undiscovered paradise. Our 5 day trip to Taiwan was just too good because of the fact we had nothing much to do except walk the sandy beaches, eat until until our hearts content and chat away without the interruptions from the gadgets. Great family bonding time.

I have never seen such thick vegetation so close to the beach. Remember the last scene from the Life of Pi movie where the tiger leaves Pi to disappear into the jungle? This is where it was shot.

Taiwan is a volcanic island, with the rich soil enabling the growth of thick vegetation even so close to the beach

I cannot resist being close to the beach without getting my legs wet.

This beach was supposedly a place for many water sports but since it was windy, all activities were closed :(

Interesting experience to walk through a miniature bridge over the backwaters

We watched this rough sea beach which was apt for surfing with its huge and rough waves while riding our two wheeler in Kenting in South Taiwan, Again, the vegetation so close to the beach and the blue sea still remains in my memory

Vegetation at the Southernmost tip of Taiwan

Here, I was reminded of the Fanghorn Forest which arises just after a plain. This was a thick forest too, infested with snakes...
