The years have passed, and Sangzi Road still maintains its original style. Although the ground has been hardened, there has not been much change here. After all, those towering new buildings on either side and the old Nanshan Market are all products of the future.
I miss the old image of the Guokou Road compound, although it has been demolished, but for me, the old Taitung, I still regret that I have never seen its style.
