搭乘高空覧車登上烏來瀑布頂端的
雲仙樂園 -
蝴蝶紛飛、鳥語花香⋯
湖中的魚兒樂悠游。
徜徉在古木參天、
美不勝收的園區⋯
暫時與世隔絕。
Climb to the Yun Hsien Resort -
top of Wulai waterfall by aerial cable car.
Flying butterflies,
singing birds and fragrant flowers...
Fishes are swimming in the lake joyfully.
Stroll in the beautiful park
with towering ancient trees...
keeping away from the world
while I am here.
『烏來』
一詞原為台灣原住民泰雅族
的用語，意思是「溫泉」，
位於臺灣北部山地區。
溪流蜿蜒穿越山谷
沿途秀麗山水美不勝收。
佇立80公尺高的瀑布前
想起唐詩《瀑布》- 施肩吾：
「 豁開青冥顛，瀉出萬丈泉。
如裁一條素，白日懸秋天。」
此時此刻，
連綿不斷的瀑布穿越雲層
由天而降。
恰似素絹，
由秋高氣爽的藍天飄然而下。
“ Atayal “
is Taiwanese aborigines their originally term,
it means hot spring,
located at mountain area of northern Taiwan.
Stream meanders through the valley,
beautiful scenery along the way.
Standing in front of the 80 meters waterfall...
thinking of a Tang poem...
Myriad spring water continuously
fall from the cope of heaven,
like a piece of plain silk,
it floats down from the crisp blue sky in autumn.

1920年代末是其全盛期。
許多建築
有外觀簡約，線條與比例均衡的
現代主義式建築。
閩南式建築，
大戶家族的家徽式浮雕裝飾。
還有富麗堂皇仿巴洛克的
洋式建築。
歷經整修才得以恢復這些古建築
的風華。
樓房內多元的商業，文化
與藝術創作活動
增添不少雍容與活力。
走過多少滄桑歲月，
城隍廟前的裊裊煙霧
彷彿不斷傾訴古老的傳說
感動人們虔誠的心。

Mass construction of new buildings -
Simple appearance,
balance lines and proportions, modernist architecture.
Southern Fujian style architecture,

And the magnificent imitation of
Baroque buildings.
After renovation,
the elegance of these ancient buildings was restored.
Diversified commercial, cultural
and artistic activities in the buildings

of the community.
So many vicissitudes of life have passed.
The light smoke curling up from Chenghuang Temple
seems to keep talking about
ancient legends
and touching people's pious hearts.
柔美曙光
揭開傳統市場的序幕。
午後小販幽揚的叫賣聲，
亂中有序的車站人群，
一切都那麼熟悉親切。
黃昏時分，夜市人生才開始。
飲食小吃遊樂場⋯
到處充滿熱情歡笑。
藝文園區瀰漫著創意靈氣，
也是休閒活動的好去處。
佇立在巷口的老榕樹，
一張張樸實的臉，
人來人往，
這兒種種的純真善良
沒有隨時光流逝。
夜深人靜，
仰望遙遠的星空，
閃爍著一道光⋯
許了個願，
為眾生平安幸福祈禱。
“ Young leave home until old age “
Actually, I come back almost every year.
Been away from Taipei for many years,
home is not far for me,
maybe it's a frequent trip.
Always follow,
whatever beautiful or ugly...
always be my beloved home.
Soft dawn unveiled the prelude to the traditional market.
The quiet cries of hawkers in the afternoon.
Orderly crowd at the station.
Everything is so familiar and kind.
At dusk,
life in the night market just begins.
Eating snack playground...
there is enthusiastic laughter everywhere.
Those art parks are filled with
creative aura.
Also good places for leisure activities.
The old marabutan tree still
standing in the alley,
plain faces,
people come and go...
The innocence and kindness here
does not pass away at any time.
In the quite night,
look up at the distant starry sky
shining a light
pray for the peace and happiness
of all beings.
