Postcard #8 - Taitung, Taiwan

Here is my first 3D postcard. It is adorable and makes me a little dizzy! It comes from Taitung, Taiwan. Taitung, known as Taiwan's Treasure, is on Taiwan's southeast coast on the Pacific Ocean. Mild temperatures, high mountains, a rift valley, and ocean make it a wonderful place to live or visit.
