Grand Canyon

A Land to Inspire our spirit
Grand Canyon--one of Earth's most powerful, inspiring landscapes--overwhelms our senses.

大峽谷是自然的贈與,是超越凡人經歷永恆存在,它的美麗和壯闊讓人感到謙卑,其亙古恆久讓人感到生命的短暫. 大峽谷的壯闊讓許多人在平日繁忙的生活裡找到慰藉.

The Grand Canyon is one of the 7 wonder places in the world to visit that my sister told me few years age when she was there and sent me a post card. she told me that you should come and see by yourself, it's more beautiful than the pictures. After I visited the Grand Canyon, now I totally agree.

鎮海軍港祭

鎮海櫻花隧道鎮海有22萬多棵櫻花樹，一到春天，整個鎮海市區都是賞櫻花的勝地，其中最著名的是安民路、海軍基地司令部、帝皇山公園。安民路長5.6公里的櫻花路，平時也很少有車輛通行，是人們喜歡的休閒步道。海軍基地司令部多是樹齡老的櫻花樹，這裏只在軍港節期間對外開放，除了看櫻花，還能欣賞到和實物一樣大小的龜船。軍港節期間，可以坐內部迴圈巴士遊覽參觀司令部，約10-15分鐘；如果步行的話，只能看一部分，需要20分鐘左右。在帝皇山公園，可以俯瞰鎮海市區的櫻花和附近的大海。爬一年臺階——因爲一共有365節臺階而得名，可以觀賞到路邊綻放的櫻花和迎春花。鎮海最具代表性的活動是軍港節，每年都有數十萬人次的遊客來。今年第49屆為期10天從4/1到4/10日. http://www.backpackers.com.tw/forum/showthread.php?t=21571&highlight=%E6%AB%BB%E8%8A%B1

有專業單眼相機拍櫻花群應該是最棒的.......我的相機拍不出現場的美感....... 我們選擇非假日且活動最少的一天(周三)避開人潮,但當日還是很多人. http://www.backpackers.com.tw/forum/showthread.php?t=69737 http://big5chinese.visitkorea.or.kr/cht/SI/SI_CH_2_13.jsp?cid=701457

This festival takes places in Jinhae from April 1 to April 10, for 10 days, in which cherry blossoms are in full bloom.
