Walk in Taipei (4) Well, I finally reached the museum. Now I have reached two National Palace Museum, Beijing and Taipei. The National Palace Museum of Beijing was very very extensive, and of the Taipei was also very large. To enter the building, I must go up many steps of the stairs. That day was very sunny day,so it was very hard work. When I had been to Beijing, I had been taken by my friend, but I came here alone,I was impressed which I think of it. I deposited my passport at the reception, and I borrowed the audio guide which I can hear in Japanese. Many and various works were exhibited there, craft objects, china, and calligraphy...Some were made in prehistoric age, Some were made in modern times. I could hear the explanation of that works on the audio guide, so I understood better about that than I just saw them. There were many tour parties which came from China, they were taken by each guide. When I saw a work, a guide took his party to where I was seeing.I was surrounded by them, and I couldn't move from there. It couldn't be helped, so I listened to the guide's explanation pretending that I was Chinese tourist, however I couldn't understand Chinese... Afterward, I feel hungry, so I went to restaurant in the museum, and had some yamcha. At the cash desk, I had the courage to say "很好吃了" to the staff,then she smiled at me. I went out and moved to Chih-shan Garden where was in the site of the museum. It was very hot in the sunny place, but when I was in the shade of trees, I feel so cool!! Strangely,there were fewer people there than in the museum. This garden could be enter free of charge if they had the stub of the musium's ticket. It was very nice place, why they didn't come ? I was healed my tiredness with hearing sounds of a river,green, and the children's voice playing there. I've got a lot of satisfactions at the museum and the garden.I want to come here again,and I will.
