Taichung Park / 台中公園 / 臺中公園

1908年台灣縱貫鐵路建完了。在台中公園舉辦一個祝賀會。當時由於日本的王子來參加,並不想讓他需要碰到粗鄙的庶民,因而在池旁建一座「池停」。多虧,現在公園裡有這座很酷的建築。

這天天氣很好,我拍花朵,池塘,在池上鬼混的人。好玩哪!

Here are some photos from Taichung park.  The structure by the pond was built in 1908 by the Japanese government.  It was actually built for some Japanese prince or whatever who was to be present for a ceremony related to the opening of the railway line to Taichung.  Thankfully, he had this building to observe the ceremony from, otherwise he might have to do interact with the hoi polloi.  I'm sure it would have been very unpleasant.

It's a nice building though!

It was a gorgeous, sunny day when I was here, so I took photos of the flowers, water, and the people fooling around in their boats on the water.  Good times, good times.

1908年、縦貫鉄道ができた時に台中でそれを祝う式が行われた。その時天皇の息子か誰かの偉いやつ(誰かようわからん)が参加したから、汚い庶民と接する必要がない様に池の隣に休憩所が建てられた。おかげで、未だにこの綺麗な建物が残っている。

訪れた日は天気が良くて、池や花、池でふざけている台湾人などの写真をたくさん撮ってきた。
