Sanyi：From Wood Sculptures to Summer Snow
Interested in sculptures？ Then Sanyi is the place for you！ This small town in Miaoli County is famous in Taiwan for its wood carving. The people of Sanyi have been carving wood for over 400 years. The carvers there are some of the quickest and best in the world.
If you watch the carvers in Sanyi， you will see their unusual carving style. They get their ideas for what they carve from the shape of the wood. At the Museum of Wood Sculpture， you can see hundreds of examples of the Sanyi style of wood carving.
But that is not all there is to see and do in Sanyi. Sanyi is also known for being home to many Hakka people. Visit the town and you can enjoy many delicious Hakka foods， like pickled vegetables or Lei Cha， a special Hakka tea.
The best time to visit Sanyi is early summer. That is when the trees are covered with white and yellow blossoms. When the wind blows， the blossoms from the trees fall to the ground like snow！ The beauty of “snow”falling in summer is a sight that you definitely should not miss！

三義：木雕山城的夏之雪
對雕刻感興趣嗎？三義正是你的好去處！這個(gè)小鎮(zhèn)位于苗栗縣，在臺(tái)灣以木雕聞名。三義的居民從事木雕工作已有四百多年。在那兒，有些雕刻師堪稱世界上技藝秀、雕刻最迅速的好手。
如果你觀察三義的雕刻家，你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)他們有著特殊的雕刻風(fēng)格。他們從木頭的形狀上獲取靈感。在木雕博物館里，你可以看到無數(shù)充滿三義風(fēng)格的木雕作品。
不過在三義，你的所見所聞遠(yuǎn)非這些，它還是眾所周知的客家之鄉(xiāng)。游覽這座小城時(shí)，你可以品嘗到許多美味的客家食物，例如泡菜或一種特殊的名為“擂茶”的客家茶。
游覽三義的時(shí)間是初夏，那時(shí)這里的樹上會(huì)長滿白色和黃色的花兒，風(fēng)一吹，這些樹上的花朵便會(huì)像雪花一般飄灑到地上。你絕不能錯(cuò)過這幅夏天的美麗雪景！
