Banyan Tree |
I was very much looking forward to experiencing Reflexology paths. After doing our morning constitutional* in Taipei by the Tamsui River after our first night walking back to the hotel we passed through a small park called Yuquan Park where seniors and some younger people were exercising.
A man said hi and invited us to join him and other seniors who were walking on the roots of this banyan tree. How did he know? Was it written all over our faces? We took off our shoes at the edge and embarked on a "session of sacred tree reflexology." Banyan trees are considered sacred.**. Regal felt we were invited into a tradition and that it was a very warm welcome, I could not agree more.
