    Am happy you are having fun and great experiences. Am living it though you again - have been to most places back in 2013. PS Just a small comment: Taipei 101, where I was many times when traveling on business, is in Taiwan, not in the Republic of China... only the Chinese are claiming that this independent country is still their province ..... they have power but not to that degree. Have fun. Cheers! L.

    Sama nie wiem, co mnie bardziej na Waszych zdjęciach zachwyca. Czy super nowoczesna architektura i mistrzostwskie umiejętności konstruktorów, czy przepych i wyrafinowane zdobnictwo architektury sakralnej. Oglądacie Kochani niesamowitości, tak to chyba mogę najprościej podsumować, patrząc na Wasze zdjęcia z perspektywy naszej polskiej lutowo pluszczatej rzeczywistości.
    Wszyscy bliscy Wam Wrocławianie pozdrawiają ciepło :-).
