"People born in the Year of the Monkey are fun-loving, energetic and inquisitive. Their intellect allows them to adapt to any situation, they are confident, charismatic, loyal and inventive.
Sometimes, the Monkey can be a little too curious for his or her own good, as well as careless, restless, immature and arrogant."

Yeats as they travelled on board the local Metro service and as they passed through various stations as part of the Yeats 2015 celebrations.

The poems will be displayed in Chinese and English.

Taiwan Lantern Festival 2016 was held in Taoyuan. It was incredible from beginning to end. The amount of people that attended was STAGGERING.
