Roaming around Golden Triangle Shopping District....trying to recognise the street names and shop houses.
Manage to find a unique shop along Zi You Street No. 63 (自由街 63號) ....Uma Leather Crafting Workshop
A small little store along the inconspicuous road...Walked in and saw a young lady doing some craft. I approached her and found out that she was making some leather wallet...with pictures.Out of curiosity, I asked the lady what these pictures represent. To my surprise, all the lines on the Uma (one of the tribal) represent their skills and empowerment. If without these drawing (on their faces), will not get marry. So fascinating!
Had taken some shot at the workshop. If you happen to in Hualien, you can visit this little workshop can get some unique souvenir.
** All the designs are done by the teacher and all are handmade by the student. ツ
Reasonable price starting from SGD 10 … ❤

AT FLOWER PALACE_OLD BOOKS STORE (舊書舖子)
•.¸¸.•*´¨`*•.¸¸.•*´¨`*•.¸¸.•
I felt so fortunate that I could attend the fifth Flowers Autumn Photography gift presentation even though it was a short period. Thanks Arthur for giving me this opportunity. Finally managed to locate the book store (as I had tried to locate myself during my ride but always failed)! I am really a road nerd..LOL (╯3╰)
Made some news pals in this photography session. Beside that, found some good books in the store. I was so temping to purchase the books...After second thought, I decided not! Worried backpack would be overloaded... Well will go again to read at the store whenever I am free (a❤‿❤a)
There are some second hand books and new ones too! Not only that, sofa and chairs provided at some corners, whereas you can read the books and enjoy!
If you want to find some good books, regardless art, health care, innovations, cook books, travel etc...
you might want to visit this second hand book shop (a♥‿♥a)
** Liitle background of this _Old Books Store
The boss shifted his house to Hualien and started to work as a volunteer in Resources and Collection (資源回收場當義工)
Whenever he found the books that he loved, he would bring back home and read.
Since after that, he had collected alot of books and he decided to open the first second bookshop in Hualien.
Previously was located along Jie Yue Street No. 8 (節約街 8 號).
Due to landlord re-renovate the building, now this bookshop has relocated at Guang Fu Street No. 57 (光復街 57號)
Business Operations:
Tuesday to Sunday
1pm - 9pm

一家很不起眼的店, 看似乎很平凡。。。
可卻是第一家二手舊書的老店。 感覺還很不錯。
雖然店沒有像以前舊式的fu~~﹐可是店裡還是保留了一些舊的回憶。。。書的選擇也變得更多了耶!
能讓你放下快的腳步, 感受和享受閱讀的樂趣。。。
