Geocache Description:


Ren-ai Roundabout sits right at the heart of Southern Taipei. Two major arterial roads, Ren-ai road and Dun-hua Road intersect at the roundabout. Ren-ai roundabout was the largest roundabout in Asia in the 1970s. Ren-ai Road (EW) connects Zhong-zheng, Da-an, and Xin-yi Districts from the East to the West, and runs roughly on a Latitude (N). Dun-hua Road (NS) connects Song-shan and Da-an from the North (Songshan Airport) to the South (National Taiwan University) and runs roughly on a Longitude (E).

The large garden inside Ren-ai roundabout is not easily accessible due to the heavy traffic and the number of lanes one needs to cross without a proper pedestrian passage. Therefore, the final cache is located at the below coordinate. Please do not post information or photos showing the final cache location. Don't forget to bring your pen, and always look out for muggles.

N - 55 x NS + 5 x EW + 2

E + 5 x NS x EW + 5 x NS - 2
