Taiwan best places
First stop is Chikeshan which we reached by deviating probably about 20kms off our route, about 12kms of it up a narrow, at times quite steep and very winding road. In two or three place landslides had blocked off half the road. We persevere in rain as do a number of other tourists eventually reaching an area where the hillsides are covered in orange daylilies. The flowers are picked and dried for tea or for a flavouring in soups. It’s a commercial operation in an area that suits this particular flower and there are obviously quite a number of growers. How they keep going up and down this hill 12kms each way must be a chore and somewhat dangerous.

Next we walk up a steep incline in the heat to eventually find the Fo Guang Shan Monastery, the headquarters of the Fo Guang Shan Buddhist Order. We stop to read and consider material handed to us and leave a donation of 100 TWD. Difficult to find our way here and even more difficult to find our car after being here. Signposting leaves a bit to be desired, but this Order does a lot of good work so I must not be critical.
