honey bees for you?

impact of the earthquake - a damaged temple

on our way to Sun Moon Lake, we made a stopover at Jiji, a small village that is abt 1.5 hours train ride away from Taichung. checked into a 民宿 for about NT1000/night (approx SGD 50) for a triple room. after a good rest, we set off in the early morning to cycle around the village.

here, one can still see the damage of the 921 earthquake (also known as the Chi-chi or Jiji earthquake) that occurred on 21 September 1999 in central Taiwan at 1:47 am and measured 7.6 on the Richter scale.
