Breath-taking views at Uluwatu Temple! This Hindu Temple sits on a cliff and apparently watching sunset is amazing. I avoided the crowds and came in the morning instead and the view is still awesome.
I'm super grateful to have a friend from Taipei. He drove about 1.5hrs and to take me to see the beautiful scenery of Taiping shan. However I didnt pick the best weekend to visit. It was very foggy and ended with heavy rain! Anyhoo~ we managed to walk the shortest track and breathe some fresh air! After this short trail, we drove to see the lake. But then the heavy rain started and we didnt get to see much! All white and foggy as per photo haha!
Arrived Sulbing! (雪冰) Korean Dessert Cafe! There are tons and tons of cafes around Korea. Sulbing is one of the chains and this one is popular or famous for shaved ice desserts. I was in Seoul for 4 days and had to visit twice!! It was very very good. The ice extremely smooth and soft. The ice above is topped with red bean paste, with a few chunks of mochi type of chewy dessert, and uses a little of sweetened condensed milk. Delicious!!! This ice dessert is covered with chunks of chewy mochi and yellow bean powder. On the right hand top corner is condensed milk. You can add your preferred amount. Delicious!!! I was at one of the branches in Hongik University. The decor was very comfortable and modern (just like all other branches haha). Besides from ice, they also have toasts and different snacks. Here are 2 drinks I ordered. Yam latte and citron tea. Yam latte was my first and maybe no more for now. It was full of yam taste and was quite thick. >.< But the citron tea in the nice ceramic cup was very enlightening! I think if I was to live in Korea, I'd come here every day!
Nami Island became famous around the world because of the Korean drama Winter Sonata. The drama series was filmed here and the island have signs saying first kiss here and even have statues of the main actors. However what this island is really famous for is the scenery. The rows of tall trees create spectacular scenery during all four seasons. The below photos are some of what I captured end of November. I would love to be here when it's covered in snow!! The island is also decorated with different statues -especially snowmans, landscapes, wild animals running around, souvenir stores, and restaurants so its not boring at all.
Miss Lee Cafe is where the show "We got married" ~ Yongseo Couple filmed. It is famous for its tin box lunchbox. This upstairs cafe is nicely decored, but food is just ok. Below is the lunchbox. Basically it has rice, sausages, and kimchi, decored with seaweed. To eat this, you need to close the lid, and shake it crazy to mix it up!
Gastown, beautiful night scene while on a walk to dinner. Ferguson Point in Stanley Park! What a view I came across while on my way home!
Hong Kong, a beautiful city however it's so busy views are frequently blocked by smog~ today after a few heavy showers, I went out for a walk and there is a pretty harbour view!! Beauriful HK! :)
Beautiful field of Sunflowers!!! Close to Kenting in Taiwan. There is really nothing except this field in that area hahaha! But it was nice to see such a beautiful sight. Something that you can't find in busy cities like Hong Kong!
Osaka, Japan is famous for the beautiful Sakura (cherry blossoms) in Spring. However I was a bit late, due to global warming, spring came early and I missed it. >.< SIGH~ anyhow, I still made my way around looking for the treasures within. This here is Osaka Castle. See below for what's left of the Sakuras and other flowers I found~
