From Lunar New Year’s Eve till Feb. 20, Wutiaogang Ansi Temple will be holding the “Ansi Temple Metaverse: AR Tiger Lantern Festival” at the square in front of the Ansi Temple in Wutiaogang, Yunlin County.
This innovative and engaging event was designed by Hsieh Shun-fu, the eldest son of the legendary comedian Chu Ke-liang, and team members of Light Generation Technology. Inspired by the hottest trend in 2022, the team developed a series of unique and fascinating AR experiences. Visitors can use their mobile phones to scan the codes and enjoy different examples of interactive augmented reality, such as watching lanterns, getting their hands on treasure and gold, receiving blessings from Wang Ye (royal lord), swimming with fish in a large aquarium and getting gold from iridescent phoenixes flying around the square.
Ansi Temple would like to remind all visitors to follow the pandemic guidelines during Lunar New Year while they enjoy the mind-blowing experience of outdoor augmented reality. The temple invites visitors to Yunlin County to explore the magic of the metaverse and embrace the inner strength of a tiger in the 2022 Lunar New Year.

The Dutch introduced the Indian mango (Mangifera indica) to Taiwan in the 17th century. It is a green-skinned mango with thick fibers that get stuck in the teeth, but it boasts a rich aroma and a unique taste. In 1954, Taiwan’s Council of Agriculture introduced several mango cultivars from Florida, USA, including the Irwin, Haden, and Keitt varieties. After seven years of testing and domestication, the Irwin variety was chosen for promotion. Years later, the sample saplings started to bear fruit. These mangoes were large, with thin, vibrant red peels and golden pulp. The Irwin mangoes were mouth-wateringly sweet and
As the priest Antonius Hambroek stood in the dim chamber of Fort Zeelandia, his eldest daughter clung to him, her voice trembling. “Father, don’t go. They’ll kill you, and what will become of Mother and my sisters?” Outside, the sounds of Koxinga’s relentless canon siege boomed through the fortress. The defenders were on the brink of collapse. Starvation gnawed at their resolve, and the air carried the acrid stench of spent gunpowder and rotting flesh. Dutch reinforcements from Batavia had failed to arrive, leaving the garrison isolated and hopeless. Hambroek’s face was calm, though sorrow weighed heavily on his

As we bundle up in thick coats to stay warm during the winter, there is a population that has already adapted to extremely low temperatures. These people live in the remote city of Yakutsk, the coldest city on Earth. Yakutsk is situated in the heart of Siberia, which is the capital of the Sakha Republic in Russia. This historic mining city began to flourish in the 19th century following the discovery of gold deposits. Given its construction on permafrost, the average temperature in the city remains below 0°C for over half the year, with winter temperatures dropping to an astonishing -50°C.
