"After much observation, consideration and thought I have decided on an answer to the question: "What are the colors of Taiwan"? The obvious answer to me now, after going to the river, mountains, cities and flying over much terrain: "Taiwan is all colors!"

It is...

the browns and green of the hillsides the blue of the sky the yellow of sunshine...

And...

The grayed tones of modern buildings juxtaposed against the old the amazing array of delicious foods the multiple hues of the night market reflected against the blackened sky the vibrant assortment of signage that expresses the cities’ thriving commerce the colorful shrines and buildings that speak of Taiwan’s past and present"
