The old can collector 2
I have been standing aong the street to observe this old man. He seems to be preparing himself for his collection of cans along the streets.
The collection might be his bread and butter for the day.

Year 1939
I am not sure if this building is constructed in year 1939, but from the front view of the building, it stated 1939.
I took this picture and using photoshops to get rid of the cars and also the tall modern building behind it.
This could be the sight on the 1900s.

Folks 2
Took this photo at waist level without looking at the viewfinder. Trying not to alert any people or cause discomfort to the folks.
The window
The only window in level 2.
I could imagine the living condition of the old generation who live in this building along the street.

The letter boxes
My friend was telling me that i could find interesting letter boxes along the streets, I happen to walk past this staircase and saw the 7 boxes on the wall along the staircase.
From the picture, these boxes could be left behind by the old residents.

Vintage Powder Box
The face powder !!! I have recover my lost memory of the old vintage powder box in Chinatown...
My sole purpose of finding these boxes are to remind me of the old generation. The use of these powder are seldom seen in the market except some old shops in China town.

Taiwan Day 5 and 6
Day5
Waoo!! Once we walk out of the hotel room, there is some Taiwan force doing some stunts as is a Sunday and I manage to capture some of the scenes of the moment.
Repelling, Inverted repel and unarmed combat and close contact with a armed person.
Although is a demonstration, but was quite ok… as is free !!
Then me and brother went to 三峡老街。The from the given name we can derived that the street going to enter is super antique trip.
We get to see temples along the way. Then we have our street food/ drinks and later for some photo taking.
In this town, you can expect to see old shadows of the past and you can roughly see and figure out their environment and the old antique items left for many years..
Then we leave from the place to places nearer to the hotel.
I went to Long shan temple again for some praying as a show of courteous. Walking along the streets, I saw fire engines station that I took a couple of shots of their base. I have loitered ard the city for a long time.
Day6
Wake up and after washup , I went to the National Sun Yan Seng Memorial Hall and saw many kids doing pop, breaking moves . Then took a picture of Taipei 101 and leave for wu fen pu to shop again after meeting Junrong for reorg. haha….Then at the night have dinner with Meya (The host) for the last dinner with her for our expedition trip.
Day 7
Wake up and stone around and shop. Then leave Taiwan at 15:35 with China Airline.
From these trips, I have learn many stuff from Taiwanese people and learning each other culture is a cool thing.
I seen the way the people work , talk and move. The learning of some of the Chinese culture is important too.
