兩千年前羅馬帝國在此建造高聳天際的引水道，屹立至今。卡通白雪公主電影以此城中的中古時期城堡為藍本。塞戈維亞在西班牙首都馬德里西北91公里，公車路程70分鐘。也是國際文藝活動(木偶、民歌、電影)中心。
An ancient city known for the towering acqueduct constructed by the Romans in the first century AD. It prides itself on the castle built by the muslims in the 10th century which the drawing of the cartoon movie "Snow White" was based on. Segovia is 91 km northwest of Madrid.

 塞爾維亞，西班牙 Sevilla, Spain
November 18 & 19, 2014
 
 



這是一度"全世界第一個帝國的首都"。當地人稱西班牙全盛期16世紀時，這也是全世界最富有的都市，因為南北美的金銀香料都經此運進歐洲。他們說此成之高塔也一度是全世界最高的建築物。This is once the capital of a world empire, the first in human history. People in Sevilla claim that it was once the richest city in the world, thanks to the treasures from the Americas shipped to Europe through this port after Christopher Columbus discovered the New World.

 不丹之行
Bhutan Beauty
 
 

只有台灣人口1/30不到，不丹的70萬人口享有類似台灣地面積。我們一周內住了今日的首都庭布(海拔2,500米) 以及兩個古都普納卡(海拔2,100米)和帕羅(海拔2,300米)。八世紀，蓮華生大士，受邀於西藏國王入藏教導佛法，進出西藏路經不丹兩次，並停留弘法及據傳"降魔"，重大的改變了不丹。但這是之前兩件歷史事件之後果：7世紀玄奘赴印度取經，隨後唐太宗派文成公主嫁入西藏王為后，並攜佛法入藏。

 With the same geographic size of Taiwan, Bhutan (meaning "the Highland Kingdom") has a population of 700,000, less than 1/30 of Taiwan's. We visited the current capital Thimphu (elevation 2,500 meters), and two ancient capitals Punaka(ele. ⋯⋯2,100 m)) and Paro (ele. 2,300 m). In the 8th century AD, Padmasambava or "The Second Bhuda" , "Guru Rinpoche", was invited by the Tibetan King to come from India to his country. He passed through and stayed in Bhudan twice, in and out of Tibet. Since then Bhutan was no longer the same. His visit was preceded by two important events in the 7th century: Tang Dynasty monk Xuanzang went to India, stayed 19 years, and brought back Buddhistic sciptures to China, and Tang emperor sent his princess Wencheng to Tibet with Buddhistic teachings where she married the Tibetan king.

From May 13 to 16, I made a trip to Shijiazhuang, the provincial capital of Hebei Provincewas. I was invited to deliver a lecture at Hebei Normal University by a 90-year old, legendary patriot poet Professor Xia Chuancai. He was jailed 4 times in life, twice by the Chinese Communists who persecuted him for 23 years, during which time he attempted suicide twice. He has published 40 books, some in the Yanjing collections at Harvard University.

南園

Nanyuan: U D N Founder's Memorial Resort

2013年9月19 & 20日


    南園是聯合報系創辦人王惕吾所建之閩南式庭園建築。三面環山,藏風聚氣。先天風水及後天建築設計皆屬極致。據說蔣經國一度有意取作行館及身後紀念堂。
    住宿貴客有各國政要名流，但台灣政治領袖 – 李登輝、陳水扁、宋楚瑜、馬英九等無此機會。

    歡迎進入本部落格相簿光臨  "南園":
http://album.blog.yam.com/CPLin&folder=10113515
 
    Nanyuan is a resort managed by "The One" today. The building was constructed by Wang Tiwu (unverified transliteration), the founder of the United Daily News in the 1980s.  The painstaking design, the valuable timber, and the superb fenhshui (geomancy) constitute a southern Fujian style architecture that is one of a kind. 
     It was originally for housing returning journalists from abroad. It contained individually designed units for all of Mr. Wang’s children save one who was managing more than one hundred stations internationally and seldom came home.
    Visiting dignitaries who had stayed include Margaret Thatcher, Gorbachev, Washington Post Chairwoman Katherine Graham, Bill Clinton and the like. However, Taiwanese political figures such as Lee Tenghui, James Soong, Chen Shuibian, and Ma Yingjeou have never been invited.
    You are welcome to visit “Nanyuan” in the photo album on this blog:
