Egrets resting in the trees!


A tiny pond 
with Taiwan yellow water lily



Handsome trees 
dancing for the summer!


Daan Forest Park 
developed as 
a disaster prevention park


Beautiful reflection 
of blue sky and green trees in the water


Golden shower trees 
can be seen everywhere in the park.


Two of the bamboo bushes in the park.


A quiet corner of the ecological pond















Thin clouds above trees 
and shadows of trees on the grass


Two ducks 
combing their feathers 
with their beak!



A small forest of trees 
across one end of the ecological pond.


Handsome trees 
and moving clouds!


Beautiful trees and stone steps
 in a shady corner of the park.


Spider lily


A grove of trees 
and the slow-drifting clouds above.


The blue sky,
 the green grass
and the sunlight shining on the trees!


Tall, straight palm trees 
under the blue sky!

Garcinia subelliptica (福木), 
whose leaves are said to resemble
the shape and color of
an ancient Japanese coin,
is known as the fortune tree.
It has a very long life
and is easily identified from
its columnar form
with all the branches and leaves 

pointing upward. 

Its fruit is green when unripe 
and turns yellow when ripe.
