Gaomei Wetland, Taichung
#Taichung #Taiwan
In addition to the wetland ecology and super beautiful sunsets, there is also a very special landscape, the wind farm! Near the wetlands, you will see rows of very tall windmills that are not only a symbol of eco-friendly energy, but also add a unique beauty that combines modernity and nature to the Komei Wetland. Especially at sunset, the windmill slowly rotates under the sunset. The scene is really shocking. Many people came here to take pictures!
