Random things I liked in 鹿港

Our hotel had 3 great dogs.

 Wish I could dig in here, probably some great stuff

 cool dragon wood carving on an abandoned building

The tourist spot called "Touch Breast Lane" because it was so narrow in the old days that the only way to pass was face-to-face.
This is the photo everyone takes.
All of these official tourist spots are old history ruined by the town council.

This is called Wenge Walls and is one of the tour bus destinations.
The tourist map tells how the old ships from china would  carry things in these pots and then leave them behind. The Taiwanese used them as building materials in walls. Instead of actually showing the real thing however, they "improved" it by pasting large photos on the walls. Am I the only one who thinks this is funny?
A home made holder for charms to protect an old house. More interesting and beautiful than anything on the tourist map.
