Day 4 - Alishan & KaoHsiung

Rain spelled difficult times ahead of our early morning hike up Alishan mountain. The unforgiving rain clouds blocking out the sunrise and battered us until we were soaked through. Even so, it was an unforgetable walk in the rain amongst the great woods of Alishan...

We left wet wet Alishan and reached KaoHsiung city late that evening. The KaoHsiung weather was much better. My 1st impression of the city was that the streets were awfully quiet for a city its size. But as you can see from the photos, the city has its own charms also.
