Autumn/winter and my bicycle, 2
As said in previous post, winter time here is ideal for biking around. Temperatures around 20 cels and not humid. I extended tour from last week and made a circle around the hill where QuChi Feng is. It was a hour of pleasant mid-day ride, where I was worried only if I will not get burnt on the sun as I hadn't any hat ;-)
Roads were empty, and it was a pleasant ride. Views in these suburban areas are very mixed. Farms and fields with high tech building.
On the left of building, up the hill, is cemetary. And more left is some buddhistic monastery or so.
Walleys like this are filled by new buildings, few years ago there was forest or fields.
But flowers are nice everywhere, regardless city or fields
Entrance to one of farms, big leaves tree is banana tree. Such "farms" are common everywhere in Taiwan, I found some in the middle of the cities, e.g. in Zhubei, nearby Hsinchu. Obviously the cities are developing FAST, very fast. Usually some patch of land which still waits for freeway to be built, or some of monstruous condominium towers usual here.
Rice field waits for new turn, this is one sign of winter here.
Sure, closer to the city, Science Park of Hsinchu is omnipresent. This is Vanguard Semiconductor plant, big chance is that you have something produced inhere in your computer.
In TsingHua University campus they had charity selling this Sunday, weather was really ideal for picnic.
One inhabitant of the city, picture catched inside the Campus. Squirrels here are dark, not red-furred as in Europe. But otherwise, show the same nervous attitude. This one was gathering food. For winter sleep? I doubt. Funny was the rat who was coming close to her checking what she is collecting, but then she would 'frrr' off him, and he would come closer again...and so back and forth for ten times. Rat was every time running to one of 2 ratholes nearby the tree, each time comng out of the other one. City life, really :-D
