This was always a sign of spring time that we could stroll in the National Taiwan Museum at Railway Department Park, to learn the history, the architectural features, the revolution of motive power on Taiwan railway. Finally, the model railway exhibition amazing us to end this happy journey.

Located in the heart of Taipei, near the Taipei Main station and the North Gate is a building of significant historic significance. The impressive building we see today is National Taiwan Museum of Railway Department Park.
We will tour this building and the complex of eight historically significant buildings with a professional tour guide.
Our tour will begin at the main entrance to the museum at 10::00, after tour, we will enjoy lunch at Astoria Cafe, welcome to join us if you are available on this day.

從一個城市移動到另一個城市,鐵道打破區域空間的隔閡,載運著記憶,退役的舊鐵道伴隨著都市發展,被賦予新時代意義。鄰近台北北門,原為日本時代鐵道部、戰後台鐵總局本部的國立臺灣博物館鐵道部園區,歷經16年修復,終於在2020年正式對外開放!

此次的活動,基本上是以探索歷史建築的角度,探訪台灣博物館鐵道部園區百年建築新生,了解鐵道部廳舍發展歷史與工藝美學,請帶著懷舊的心情,一起探索及回味老城之旅。

參觀費用:門票$100, 65歲以上免費
午餐費用:$700套餐,$500單點
活動結束後,我們安排在鄰近的明星咖啡館用餐,擁有超過65年歷史的咖啡館,曾是過去文人騷客聚集的場所。非常歡迎您的參加。

02/23/2022 EG Trip to Martin’s Organic Strawberry Farm

Planning a trip in cold and wet raining day isn’t always easy, but with proper preparation, things can still run smoothly.
We are sometimes super lucky, but for this time, we don’t. However, despite of non stop raining for over one month in Taipei, it’s so hard to get up from the cozy warm bed to catch the morning train to the MRT station, taking bus to Neihu, to Martin’s strawberry Farm, picking the delicious red and sweet strawberries, making the turnip cake, sharing the delicious food and celebrating the birthday with all our dearly friends, what a wonderful day, what a unforgettable trip we had.

12/08/2021 EG Trip to Nung Chan Monastery

Situated in the Guandu Plain, facing the Keelung river is the Nung Chan Monastery.
Established in 1975 and the home of the Dharma Drum Buddhist Foundation,
this beautiful Monastery was the vision of Master Chen yen (聖嚴法師),
the founder of the Dharma Drum Buddhist Group (法鼓山).
The design was based on a meditation of the Buddhist Master in which he saw the temple as “it is a Flower in Space, Moon in Water ”, so it was named the Water-Moon Monastery.
This was the second time WTIC Exploration Group visited Monastery, we were welcome by the abbot, the tasty vegetarian food to refresh our mind after the walking zen.
The photos album and slide shows recorded our visit, whoever joined us or couldn’t join us on Wednesday, we would like to share with you, for you might want to go back and pay them a visit one more time.

Slide show:

創辦人聖嚴法師與建築師姚仁喜談及農禪寺的改建時,曾表示:希望農禪寺可以做一個臺灣真正唯一的景觀道場,讓大家到這裡來感受到特別的空間氛圍,而能啟發正念,親近佛法,讓寺院呈現一種殊勝的宗教品質。當姚仁喜建築師向聖嚴法師請教想將農禪寺建成什麼樣子?法師只給了六個字「空中花,水中月」,並將之取名為「水月道場」。
在建築設計上,農禪寺新建物採用聖嚴法師向來注重的環保理念,從建築物本身的設計和座向來減少耗能,整個建築物沒有多餘的裝飾,呈現出「本來面目」。
我們有幸,二度拜訪農禪寺,獲得寺方監院法師盛情的接待,活動的高潮是托水缽『走禪』,定心定性的洗滌我們心中不安的情緒,寺方並排了豐富的素食,為我們當日的活動畫下完美的句點。

Exploration Group will be led by experienced guides from the Nung Chan Monastery (農禪寺), share with us the philosophy and history of the Dharma Group founder and his vision for the Water-Moon Monastery.
Please join us at Qiyan(奇岩) MRT Station between 10:00 and 10:15 am on Dec 8th.
取自「空中花,水中月」的水月道場農禪寺,在疫情嚴峻期間,暫停關閉近半年後,於十二月重新對外開放,我們特別為您安排在12/8參訪。
若您有興趣,歡迎您加入我們,集合時間及地點:
12/8 早上10:00-10:15
奇岩捷運站
