Southernmost Point

We set out on a journey to the southernmost part of Taiwan. It was a treacherous journey on a motorized scooter. Finally we arrived at the following sign and had to walk from there.






I thought, “Oh no!! 500 miles!!!!” as we started on the path. Taiwanese miles sure are short. It only took about 5 to 10 minutes to walk 500 m. When we arrived at the platform with the following sign, I noticed that we weren’t at the very tip. There was still land.

So I jumped down from the platform (it must have been at least 2 Taiwanese miles down) and made the final journey to the tip of Taiwan as pictured below.


It was a long and arduous adventure, but alas, victory was inevitable.
