Replica of China and Taiwan

Windows on China was opened to the public in the 1980's. These are replicas of Mini China that shows the Great Wall of China, The Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven and the Lungmen Caves.  The replica of Mini Taiwan includes Chiang Kai Shek International Airport, Lung Shan Temple, Sun Yat-sen Memorial Halls and Fort San Domingo. Some of the pictures that I took on this site did not come out right which is why I was not able to post them all. This place is a must-see for tourist who are visiting Taiwan. Nothing beats seeing the original of course but even if it's only a replica, it gives you an idea of what these places looks like. I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as we enjoyed taking them.    

Replica of Europe's scenic sites

I lost my list of all the names of these replicas that I copied which is why I could not name them, too bad. Notice the different architectural designs of these replica buildings, it's very interesting. My favourite is the windmills of Netherlands. The founder of the Park, Mr. C. H. Chu has settled in Madurodam  in Netherlands and this model replica represents the activities of the area including the positions of the trees and shrubs with respect to the distance to the buildings. It's like a wonderland with all the windmils scattered around like that. It was very cold and windy when we visited the place. I've not been to these places yet but it has given me an idea of the tourist attractions in Europe. Even if these are only a replica, it's very beautiful.

Water slide

Just before we came back home to the Philippines, we were given a tour to the  Window of China, Taiwan. This is a replica park of the famous tourist attractions with historical heritages and scenic sites that are found in Taiwan and China and later on, was expanded to include the tourist attractions in the USA and in Europe. It was very cold and foggy that day when we visited the park but we still went ahead as scheduled. I listed all the names of the pictures that I've taken inside this theme park knowing that I would be using them to label all the pictures. It's just that but for some reason, I lost this list somewhere inside the park including the cover of my camera. Anyway, this place is a must-see when visiting Taiwan.

Should you want to take the ride in the water park, it would be a good idea to bring an extra change of clothing with you because you will get soaking wet after taking one of the rides. Oh and take off your false teeth if you're wearing one and keep it zipped up in your jacket so you don't loose it. It is guaranteed that you will be yelling at the top of your voice with your mouth wide open when you're coming down from the top of the slide at a very fast speed before you hit the water.
