City of Childhood Memories (九份)

九份, originally uploaded by szachko.

Things change over the years. The streets, the places, the stores. However, this place manages to freeze the time somehow. Many people lure to this mountain town for one reason: the memory. It could be new and could be old. There are lots of old stuffs from my memory. Strangely, I had haven been here throughout my childhood. However, my kids love this place, and this is my kids' favor place. There are full of happy memories of my kids.

When first came to New York City, it was hard to image to see Hudson River from east of Broadway.

Yesterday, I felt so lost when starring at this bright blue sky because the old world I used to know all fall apart.

Today, I saw a new hope growing on the horizons. Let's do it better this time for our lost love ones and our futures..
