Alex headed to Lengshuikang, so many sakura along the way we up. 1140hrs … Wah!! what a nice. Alex said YMS is similar to Qingmai in TH but I don’t think so as Qingmai is not much natural this! & I count find Sakura in Qingmai.

* History of YangMingShan
Yangmingshan National Park is located in the north of Beitou. Yangmingshan was called Caoshan (Grass Mountain) during Japanese occupation of Taiwan, cuzz it'ss covered with grass & seldom visited. After World War II, the KMT government renamed the mountain Yangmingshan and built a park here. Yangmingshan National Park is the only park in Taiwan that has volcanic geography and hot springs. It's next to Shamao Mountain and Qixing Mountain with Datun Mountain on the right and Guanyin Mountain in front. The magnificent mountainous scenery and comfortable weather have made Yangmingshan National Park a perfect summer resort. Total area of the park is 125 hectares, designed in traditional Chinese style. The natural beauty of the part has won it the reputation as urban forest and the Taipei garden.
The park is characterized by a large clock made of flowers with a diameter of 22 feet. Water runs around the flower clock and music is played every hour. The clock is the characteristic of Yangming Park. Opposite the clock is a statute of late president Chiang Kai Shek; on both sides of the statue are the cypresses planted by president Chiang himself. The Xinhai Guangfu Building was completed in 1971, right in the center of the park. In addition, there is a statue of Wang Yang Ming, the famous Chinese scholar in the 17th century.

* History of Dnshui 淡水
Also known as Tamshui, the long and storied history of this once-important fishing village has been shaped primarily by its geographical position at a place where the Danshui River meets the Taiwan Straits. Danshui was initially settled by the Ketagalan tribe, then at various times by the Spanish, Dutch, Japanese and of course, the Han Chinese. By the mid-19th century Danshui was a bustling port city thanks to its natural harbour, and it boasted a sizable foreign population and even a British embassy.
By the end of the 19th century, Danshui’s importance as a port had waned, and once Taiwan reverted to Chinese control after WWII, the town slowly settled into a comfortable position as farthest suburb of a major metropolis. With the opening of the Danshui line of the Taipei MRT in 1998, Danshui suddenly found itself a popular weekend travel destination.
U can buy tix at Miramar Entertainment Park on 5th Fl. (IMAX Zone) (NTD120/Adult) And finally point out only Ferris wheel摩天轮is hi-light of this Mall. (TW eye) …. again…. drizzling haiz! better to take pix from here & back Ximen ba. 2 days le, raining, raining , & raining…
* History of BeiTou Hot Spring Museum
Open hr: Tues~Sun 09:00 to 17:00, Closed : Monday
Built during the Japanese occupation, this beautiful Euro-Japanese style building was once the main public bath in Beitou. It has been lovingly restored and was re-opened in its current form in 1998. Through the twelve rooms, the story of Beitou's romantic years of steam and mystery are revealed in interesting displays. The museum is located in Qinshui Park.

* History of Miramar Entertainment Park
The department store is notable for its 70 m tall Ferris wheel on its rooftop, which is the second largest Ferris wheel in diameter in Taiwan, after the one in Janfusan World, which is 88 m in diameter. The Miramar Ferris wheel was the tallest in Taiwan as it is attached onto a roof, having a combined height of 100 meters; however, that honour was superseded by the Dream Mall Ferris wheel in Kaoshiung, which opened in May 2007.Also contains an IMAX theatre. With dimensions 28m × 21m, its movie screen is the largest in Asia for showing commercial films.
