2025 July: Taiwan
This photo set features scenes from several iconic locations in Kaohsiung, including E-Da World, Fo Guang Shan, the Pier-2 Art Center, Hamasen Railway Cultural Park, Kaohsiung Music Center, the Great Harbor Bridge, and the Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts.
Some images from Fo Guang Shan were captured for their aesthetic and cultural significance—please note that there is no intention to promote or endorse any specific religion.
You might notice that these places, including Fo Guang Shan and other well-known sites, appear unusually empty. That’s because a typhoon was passing through Taiwan during my visit, which kept most people indoors.

It is estimated that the percentage of Muslims in the Maldives population ranges from 98.4% to 100%. Some of the following photos were taken in different mosques.
