onehappy: It's been great reading all your logs and nice to keep communicating with Haima and spicemama who were helping to keep an eye on this cache. Alas, looks like hide has been compromised so time for this to go.

Anyway, this were the GZ coords: N25 02.084 E121 31.130. Merry X'mas all!

Geocache Description:


THE LOCATION
The posted coordinates will bring you to a very tall flag pole in the middle of Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall square. The National Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall is a famous monument, landmark and tourist attractions erected in memory of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, former President of the Republic of China. The monument, surrounded by a park, stands at the east end of Memorial Hall Square. The structure is framed on the north and south by the National Theater and National Concert Hall.

On the right and left sides of the park are the man-made Yunhan and Guanghua Ponds. The combination with artificial mountains, man-made waterfalls, and arch bridges, creates a beautiful scene.

The greatness of this geo-location can be seen from the architecture of the huge building structures when you are on the ground. Also, the massive garden and floor designs can be seen clearly from google earth or satelite view.

THE CACHE
This cache is named after Li Chen premier sculpture exhibition which we came across during our first trip to Taiwan. We would like to share some photos from the exhibition as these magnificent sculptures are no longer there.

The cache is a diameter 38 mm x 60 mm length camouflaged plastic container with a log sheet in it. BYOP.
Special thanks to local geocacher, Haima, for agreeing to help maintain the cache after he finds it.

THE TASK
1) Make your way to both/either waypoints i.e. BG1: N25° 2.195' E121° 31.225' and BG2: N25° 2.080' E121° 31.154'.
2) Enjoy the surrounding and use it to figure out if you are at the correct waypoint featured in the photo.
3) Stand at where the photo was taken and you will find the cache behind you. Good luck!
