EP57 Yunlin County | The Six-Eared Macaque
from Bao Island Storyteller: Journey to the West
Episode fifty-seven takes us into the heart of Yunlin County — to Huwei, where the old sugar factory heritage park preserves a century of industrial history, and to Beigang Chaotian Temple, the most famous Mazu temple in all of Taiwan. Over cups of Gukeng mountain coffee and bamboo tube rice eaten in the temple courtyard, we encounter the most philosophically disturbing chapter in all of Journey to the West: the appearance of a perfect double, a doppelganger so exact that nobody in heaven, earth, or the underworld can tell which Sun Wukong is real.Location: Beigang TownshipFood: Taiwan Mountain Coffee | Bamboo Tube Rice
