This morning at 4:30 am, I woke up and I was not sure what I want to do. Then, I jumped up, rushed to the spa bath area. Hey, there was no one in the spa bath area. Therefore, I showed and jumped in the spa bath for about 10 minutes. Nice!
The hostel also provides simply breakfast in the morning. Do you want to guess the cost to stay for a night? believeit or not, the cost for a noght is $22.
Morning after breakfast, I took bus #60 to Chengching Lake (澄清湖). Next to the lake is Niaosong Wetlands Park (鳥松濕地).
A portion of the Cheng Ching Lake was originally built as an underground tunnel in 1961, as protection against a nuclear attack. It is now a public aquarium, the Cheng Ching Lake Exotic Marine Life Museum.
The Nine-Curved Bridge across the lake was built in 1960. It is 230 meters in length by 2.5 meters wide, including nine right-angled turns.
Due to the typhoons that came by last month, many parts of the park are still closed.
The Niaosong Wetlands Park is a man-made wetland. The park was originally a settling depressions for the use of water purification and monitored by the Water Plant.
Later, it was planned and reorganized as a wetland park, there has been an actual change in natural biofacies.
Wei Wu Ying Metropolitan Park (衞武營都會公園) opens in 2010.
In Qing dynasty, the Fongshan (鳳山), Kaohsiung area was already an important military place. In the Japanese colonial period, the Japanese viewed Kaohsiung as a basis for developing the south and started to deploy troops and set up warehouses here. "Fongshan Warehouse" was a predecessor to the Weiwuyin Camp.
The Nationalist Kuomintang (KMT) government continued the military purpose of the camp till 1979, when the Military Council ruled that the camp was no longer suitable for military purposes. Then, the area became a metropolitan park.
The bird watchers love this park. Every morning, many bird lovers will come to this park and take photos.
Tomorrow, I will just relax and enjoy a day of do nothing.
