Street, to the square where Zhongzheng Road and Sanmin meet, the statue in the center is Dr. Ma Wei! He is a Canadian missionary. He was a freshwater missionary in 1872 and opened a hospital and school. He has made great contributions to the modernization of Taiwan! The entrance of Ma Ma Street is a two-storey shop with exotic style. At first glance, it is a comic shop, but it is actually an Italian shoe store! This style has really adapted me for a long time! Compared to the freshwater chapel at the Markham Street landmark, the heart-shaped tile on the square opposite the church with the frontal pattern of the chapel is full of eyeballs. At first, no one noticed, wait for me to shoot. After the end, many people also took pictures is such a place that will surprise you everywhere, a casual small scene will also make people happy.

Chance Encounter with Jimmy Liao on the Tamsui Light Rail.

Starting from the Starbucks at the Tamsui Mangrove Forest, each light rail station all the way to the Fisherman's Wharf features installation art themed around Jimmy Liao's series. These artistic touches add a hint of childlike wonder to the urban excursion. All platforms on the Tamsui Light Rail are open-air, offering unbeatable views on clear days. The only downside is that in windy or rainy weather, passengers have no shelter and can easily end up drenched.

We also explored around the place where we found there’s some beautiful buildings and nice pathways to walk around.

The tamshui old street also known as the Dan shui district, is located at the northern part of new Taipei. From the ximending station, you would have to take a train for about 25 stops to reach the place. You can also take a taxi ride which is about an hour and costs 650 Taiwan dollars one way. The Dan shui old Street has many good deals worth looking at. You can shop eat and walk around the old street. I have purchased a few sports bags and wallets for my relatives. The same item can be available at the different shops. Do compare the price before buying. There is also a lovers bridge just opposite dan Shui old street. You have to purchase a ticket to board the ship over. #bucketlistreboot

Fresh water is a place that is easy to find the taste of old time. From the old street of Tamsui to the Fishermans Wharf, the feeling of blowing the sea breeze is really great! The most beautiful of the Fisherman's Wharf is the section of the wooden plank road connecting the Valentine Bridge! Everything is gathered in the position of the light source, and you are the center of the light source! The bridge of lovers is not far away. With the changing color of the time, even in the chill of the sea breeze, I still feel that the Fisherman's Wharf is very romantic at this time! Along the 300-meter-long trestle, you can enjoy the view of the freshwater estuary in the wind, and feel the whole person is immersed in the picturesque and beautiful style! When returning, I also enjoyed a light show of a high-end residence on the road, full of creativity!

Because foreigners are reddish in color, the local aborigines call it "Red Mao Fan", and the place where they live is called "Red Mao City." The main castle of Hongmao City is divided into two floors. The ground floor maintains the original appearance of the cell. The second floor is the consultation exhibition hall for the introduction of the history of the Red Hair City and the great navigation period The Red Cross City Consulate, built in 1891, offers British consular residence, red brick arcade-style buildings, typical Victorian architecture. The faade is a semi-circular arched corridor designed to block the sun. Secondly, it can withstand the wind side arched corridor, which is more geometric and three-dimensional. Match the doors and windows to create an elegant space! Many young people are taking pictures here!

The most senior university and middle school in the hometown of Jay Chou! The University of Truth is close to the Red City, the distance from a door, from the "colonial" to the "higher school"! The Oxford School of Chinese and Western architecture is the predecessor of the University of Truth. Dr. Ma Wei was founded in 1882 in Tamsui and personally designed and supervised the work. It is the first Western-style modern school in Taiwan and the first college and university in Taiwan's history. After a hundred years of expansion, it was officially renamed "Truth University" in 1999. However, it is said that after the merger of Ma Rong School of Medicine and Ma Rong College, the university will be renamed "Ma Rong University" again in 2020. From the University of Truth to the 5th minute walk of Tamkang Middle School, these first schools to teach Western-style education, the campus buildings are full of European flavor, walk into it, just like entering a small European town. The rugby game in the movie "The Secrets That Can't Be Say" and the youth scene where Jay Chou eats Bento is filmed on the campus sports ground. I have to say that these places of learning knowledge, the environment is too elegant, not to talk about love in the field, it is a waste!

Many cities that rely on the sea have a place called Fisherman's Wharf, and Taipei is no exception.

"The Unspeakable Secret" opened the full wind as the first film of Jay Chou. The film's location is in fresh water in Taiwan. The freshwater MRT station is already the taste of the old street. From the MRT Danshui Station, follow the main street of Danshui, it is easy to find Ma Wei Street. This church is regarded as the landmark of Malang Street. The red exterior wall is particularly conspicuous. It should be able to visit it in peacetime, but it is a pity that when I go to church, I am praying in the church. Therefore, tourists are forbidden to visit. Walking along, you can see Red Mao City, once the British consulate, now faded to the flamboyant, quietly standing in the middle of the mountain, was told at 5 o'clock in the afternoon to be admitted free of charge. When the light is good, it looks a bit traversing. From the back door of Hongmao City, walk along the mountain road and you will find the University of Truth. "The Secrets That Can't Be Say," the film's location is at the University of Truth. Since Jay Chou made a film here, the university seems to have become a network red school, next to it is Tamkang Middle School, which is the alma mater of Jay Chou. However, Tamkang Middle School is not open to tourists on weekdays, so most fans will come to Truth University for a card.
