On Sunday we went in search of a waterfall around the area of Taiping. We did not find it but we did have a mini adventure. We discovered a beautiful Buddhist temple, a Bat Cave at Toubienkeng (頭汴坑蝙蝠洞), and once having managed to get to the top of a mountain a lovely restaurant/hotel place where we purchased interesting drinks.
The following pictures are a selection from the many I took at the temple.
Bat Cave at Toubienkeng (頭汴坑蝙蝠洞). We ventured in the main entrance but did not go further. There was a small opening in the wall which you can crouch through and work your way along (bats no longer live there) to see the big cave. Hopefully we will be going again soon with torches so we can go in. Fingers crossed.
Geoff and Zach were not impressed with their 'Blueberry vinegar smoothie'...I ordered a mocha smoothie. They were essentially slushies. We also thought the 'vinegar' in the title was a mistranslation...it was not. haha.
A couple of pictures from a viewing area.
I like this picture. It was taken in front of a water feature at the random place we found at the top of the mountain.
A rather large fire for the burning of ghost money etc for a loved one who has recently died. The canopy you can see indicates that.
