Tamshui Fisherman's Wharf

by Sander Tams 13. September 2009 14:46

Today, I will continue my Danshuei trip from Friday the 11. september 2009.

So after we ate seafood, we went to the same walk by the river as David took me to on my second day here. Today, however, it looked completely different because at this time it was already night. Especially the view of the city is gorgeous with all those light you can see on the other side of the river.

 
Unfortunately, a picture cannot get anywhere near making the same expression as you get from standing here yourselve, and especially not when not even taken with a professional camera specialized for this kind of views.

The above picture is taken while we were waiting for the boat that took us to the Fisherman's Wharf. While we were sailing there, the view was even better, although completely impossible to capture with my camere, which is not very good with pictures while moving or shaking.

 
Here is the trademark of the wharf: The Lover Bridge which opened on valentines day back in the days.


 
From distance, it seems much longer than when walk over it. It's a really nice looking bridge that I might go and train my photography skills on when I get a better camera for nighttime pictures someday.


 
This was the view we could look at for a few minutes, because the bus driver ignored us and drove away just as we wanted to go home. Luckily not many minutes passes between each bus, even if you're almost outside of taipei county.

 

This was all for today. I hope you didn't mind that I sneaked another post about taiwanese birthdays in between the two danshuei trip entries.
