Officials from Taiwan

I've been sending a lot of officials to Taiwan but i've also been receiving quite a few cards from there. 

TW-729056, sent by Pei.
On this cards there's the silhouettes of photographers taking pictures of Taipei at Elephant Mountain, which is famous for the night scenery of Taipei city.

TW-740218, sent by Camélia.
Dongyong Lighthouse stands on the flank of Shiwei Mountain. Locals call it “Dongyin villa.” It was designated a third-grade national historic site in 1988, making it the northernmost historic site on Taiwan’s territory. The lighthouse was completed in 1877; it, and its accompanying building, are in 18th-century English architectural style. (It was designed by an English engineer.) On the cliff below the lighthouse are two fog cannon; but now, a single foghorn fulfills their function of helping ships navigate. The white lighthouse stands atop a cliff facing the East Sea, forming a strong contrast to the deep-blue sea below the cliff. - in: http://www.matsu-nsa.gov.tw/user/Attraction-Content.aspx?a=91&l=2&forward=1
