It was wonderful to travel around Taiwan. I still remember my last trip to Taiwan.

First, I visited the National Palace Museum in Taiwan. It was built in 1962. It was completed in 1965. In this museum, you can find lots of exhibitions. It is said that the museum keeps about 600,000 artworks. The workers of the museum say they change exhibitions every three months.

It was a great experience to visit Keelung. The Keelung coasts are very famous for their wonderful scenes. There is also a seafood market. You can buy fresh product there.

Then I arrived. at Danshui. The most interesting place of Danshui is Lovers' Bridge. The bridge connects one side of the river with the other side. It is about 40 metres long. However, only one person can cross it at a time.

Do you want to know about my staying in America? It was really an eye-opening experience. In China, I had English classes five times a week. However,I didn't know how different textbook English was from daily English until I went to Hotchkiss School, Connecticut. When I first studied English, I was told to say "I'm fine" when people say "How are you?" But in America, I found that people said "I'm good" or "I'm tired." One day, someone greeted me with "What's up?" It made me confused. I thought for a moment and then smiled because I didn't know what to say.

To my surprise, American girls spend a lot of time in the burning sun. However, in China, girls try every possible way to get their skin whiter.
