Expo 2010 Shanghai China

Netherlands Hall

Spain Hall

UK Hall

I went to Shanghai and visited the Expo World's Fair 2010.

This show was round off in Oct,31. 2010.

(from May 1 to October 31, 2010)

My family have a flat in Shanghai city, and I must go there once.

even the news and friends all talked about the show was crowding.

There were had 250 countries and international organizations had

participated and those countries all design their building to their

culture style, it is very interesting.

but I didn't visit the whole hall in Expo, because it was FULL of people.

For example, if you want to visit the most top hall ( Saudi Pavilion-

this hall have Imax 3D/4D show), You have to fall in line to wait 7 hours,

the second hall (German hall), you have to wait for 5 hours...very horrible

and waste time in life to be honest............

I choose few hall to visit, like the countries it is very difficult to

trip in my life the Middle East ( Iran, Israel or Syria) and like the

countries in Africa.

I also choose the some countries in Europe.

Poland

Poland hall and Morocco is cool.

Poland is a big white hall, they used the wood board

to paint to white and dig the hold,make it looks like a

big paper-cut and lace( it is their one of culture crafts)

and use the different colors lights to project the

pattern on the wall...very very beautiful..

Morocco

Morocco hall is a very funny hall and you can see

local culture and life there. They design the hall

to the real Morocco royal building.

It used the real tile to design the colorful wall

( other countries almost use print).

For the show this time, except for local Chinese

cut in the line was sucks, it was a nice EXPO, because

you can see many different design buildings.

The most of good thing is you can take the photo

there very freedom!

It is so long time not upload the photos here.

I collected my computer folder yesterday, and I saw many pictures that I taken in trip.

During 2005-2010, I went to few countries visited.

Spain, German, France, Poland, UK and China.

Especially Spain that I went there for 3 times.

I like this country's color and style even I almost stay in Bcn and Sevilla more than other.

I remember the last time I went to Sevilla was Feb.2009,

and I bought the postcard and souvenir.

I also went to the Sevilla art university to learn for few days.

It was an interesting memory to me.

I will write more in future, just suddenly remembered these things.

LEGO City

Hong Kong / China
Canon IXUS800IS

Hong Kong is a city that I visited

many times. even I said such but not really visit everywhere.

HK , looks like LEGO, the toy who child played. because it created by many many tall buildings, I guess over 40 floors height.almost such building around.

If you check the map, you will thought: Oh! so many streets distance! that must be far!

Dont worry this issue.

The streets in Hong Kong, just only 2 cars wide and every streets close each other.

People there almost can conversation with English, because they were the British before 1997.

Hong Kong is not so big, so the people almost sit the same table to eat in restaurant together with strangers. It is usual thing there. If you can not accpet, you can pay more to the more high quilty restaurant. But to be honest, the most tradition and delicious food almost comes from such local restaurant.

New .Impressions

Macao / China
Canmera: Canon IXUS800IS

Last time I went to Macao was 16 years ago.

It still looks very messy and old, full of ancient building with a hugest hotel /gambling/ "Lisboa Hotel".

my mother told me that just only super rich person can living in.

and children can not play the gamle.

2007, I back to visit and i am adult now.

Its totally different landscape.

the avenue. street, more and more tall buildings.

The Lisboa Hotel already become to the old hotel, short hidding in many buildings.

The Macao in 1887-1999 was Portugal colony.

you still can see many sign and building seems to made same as Portugal.

very interesting place.

The day

Every morning Every night I walk here
Taipei main station of metro.

OVERALL perspective

Gdansk / Poland

Canmera: Canon IXUS800IS

The sunshine in Gdansk still cold,

because Gdansk is in north Poland,

and this city is a harbor too.

Here is an important place to trade Europe with Asia imput or output.

I have ever think about if the Poland did not join the Euro of currency,

Here is a good place to develop.

Rio Guadalquivir / Sevilla

Remember the night in this plaza,I look out of the window in car.

Shun An with me to think about the next station before dinner,

I have never walked in here at night, it looks more different and silent.

Zuo-Ying / Taiwan.

There are have lots Gods people belief in Taiwan. some of god control the health, some of gods control the business and career, or some to control the peace of love.

the most weird that is the porn career also have their god to belief, they pray the Zhudake ( the Monkeyking story that pig).because the zhudake is very lustful in story, so the porn career pray the zhudake. (very weird...)

your photographic, always just can taken their sight back].

That was i learned when i was a high school to major the photographic.

Remember the first time to take the camera to make report,

i was shy to approached the people who I did not know.

afraid to chat with them and ask for them to take photo.

even probably that i will lost a good moment.

Long time learning and year by year,

now, when i saw the good moment, even a stranger,

i always chat to them like: hey! so cute! is he ur grandson?

( of course they will got shock a bit).

but when i chat to them for a while, they almost glad to let me
