\nA couple is getting married:

\nSign in Danshui. I love the straightforward translation into English:

\nTypical sidestreet to Yongji Street:

\nSign on restaurant door. I was aware that US beef had problems in Korea but did not know that this extended to Taiwan. The reasons are similar; people do not want meat from cows that have been fed medications to make them grow faster or leaner:

\nTaipei 101 tower in clear weather. This was my last picture in Taipei:
