Dulan coastal terrace (都蘭鼻), Taitung
















Dulan coastal terrace, some one called Dōulánbí, one of tour spots of Dulan village, Taitung. There's a story here, about 10years ago, one man jumped into the sea and perishes here in order to protect the environment here, to avoid improper development of consortium. This was also the begining the environment battle of local people of the east coast. They still fighting now, they needed your helping and supporting too. Because we only left one pure land (more nature than other counties), the east coast.

都蘭海階, 或有人稱它為都蘭鼻, 台東都蘭村的景點之一. 這裡有著一個故事, 約10年前, 有個人在這跳海殉身, 為了保護這裡的環境, 避免財團的不當開發. 這同時也是東海岸的人們打環境保衛戰的開始. 他們仍在奮戰中, 他們需要您的幫助與支持. 因為我們只剩下一塊淨土了, 東海岸.

Hengchun (恆春) pole climbing festival (豎孤棚)

























Hengchun pole climbing festival, one of folk activities of Taiwan, was a race of team work and physical strength and endurance. The pole fully grease, you have climbing to the top to win the Rewards. Most of time, you saw the entrants they climb up almost to the top but falling down because the pole too slick. But no one want to give up. It's change from Qianggu (搶孤), another folk activities held on the same month in Llunar July. They were a little different, but the meaning the same, relief suffering people.

恆春豎孤棚, 台灣的民俗活動之一, 是一場團隊與體能與耐力的比賽. 柱子上佈滿了黃油, 您必須爬上頂端去贏得獎賞. 多數的時候, 您眼見參賽者都要爬上頂端了卻又滑落的下來, 因為柱子實在是太滑了. 但沒有一個參賽者會想放棄. 它是由搶孤轉變而來, 另一個台灣民俗活動同樣在農曆七月舉行. 兩者有一點不同, 但意義一樣, 救濟困苦的人.
