Not sure if these photographs will show up well or not, but perhaps they will give an idea of what I saw when I briefly visited Nanya at the end of January. I've cropped most of them to make them easier to see on the blog. The day was overcast and the air was thick with humidity. The old abandoned buildings are an old petroleum processing plant. The little buildings on the side of the hill are monuments.... tombstones, actually. I am told that the wealthy people in Taiwan like to be buried overlooking the oceans and large bodies of water. Each tombstone/monument represents where one person is buried. I guess the poor people of Taiwan are generally cremated. The
other photos are just the shoreline an

ks there.
