Today,we went to 台北县立莺歌陶器博物馆. yingge is famous for ceramics maker.The specialty of this museum is - it is fully design and very concern about natural lighting and the space for community. This building is built by famous architect -jian xue yi, he imitate Tadao Ando's design. Overally, it gives us a deep impression of playing natural lighting, simple, sincere and less decorative elements. i learnt a lot from this building: the method they exhibit and put the exhibit item, creating different ambient of exhibit area by giving some natural lighting gone through the space and the use of the space.

七彩云,made by different color of ceramics

Different feeling is created by the use of slanting partition wall

Interesting way in exhibit the item-hanging on the wall with the use of acrylicA walkway to view point is created beside the ramp. But it is quite stuffy.Sun shading device with natural lighting create a nice shadow on floor.

Then, we had a short walking to 莺歌老街. Not much car along this street. Actually the main purpose for us is having our lunch here,but sadly we couldn't find any ><" Most of the shops here are selling souvenier and some oldern and memorial items. 三峡，famous for its old street, temple,金牛角 and 甘蔗水~ The street here is exist for almost 200 years. Besides that, kaki lima can be found here as well, which is come from our country. After hanging around, took some pictures and had some food, we meet in the temple. A trained travel guide is going to explain for us about the history and architecture of the temple. She's kind and explain very well indeed! The way she talk bring us into ancient period of this temple. Every corner and element of this temple had its own reason for building. Even a structure like column has its own meaning and identity.

Before going back to our hotel, we dropped to 元智大学. A private University which support by predominant and influential foundations. Again, the compound is big enough to accommodate lot of people.

An on-site installation~ suit to the site,like this one!Movable book rack,extremely convenient for compacted space

P.S: A tiring day...><" Overally, yingge ceramics give me the deepest impression among others. An oldern architecture will left,become the history for the pass. A good design will lead us to learn more!
