Very nice, I'll probably never get to somewhere like Taiwan butt spent a lot of time in Asia and can see the similarities with the countryside. Why is the bridge red? Stupid question, but it clearly doesn't fit in with the beautiful surroundings.

All the bridges are red around the valley. Perhaps because of earthquakes and Typhoons makes them easy landmarks to spot in bad weather.

That makes sense, thought you must have had a lot of paint left over from somewhere and thought the bridge would look nice in red!
