Showcasing the Beauty of Traditional Chinese Characters Highlighting the beauty and versatility of traditional Chinese characters, the characters for "Taiwan" (the registered trademark of Taiwan's typographical island) are used to "write" the shape of Taiwan island. Through the arrangement of strokes, the central mountain range and western plains of Taiwan's topography are depicted. The two "糸" radicals in the character "灣" (wān) intentionally have six dots "disappearing," representing the six outlying islands of Taiwan: Penghu, Kinmen, Matsu, Little Liuqiu, Green Island, and Lanyu. This typographical island map is then used to design six representative animals of Taiwan: the butterfly, the fiddler crab, the green sea turtle, the Formosan black bear, the black-faced spoonbill, and the Lanyu scops owl. 2. The Characteristic Biodiversity of Taiwan Island Despite its small size of approximately 36,000 square kilometers, Taiwan island is almost invisible on a world map. However, due to: The collision of the Eurasian and Philippine plates creating the high mountain ranges in the island's center, Its geographical location crossed by the Tropic of Cancer, Its surrounding marine environment influenced by the Kuroshio and other currents, Taiwan island possesses astonishing natural environments and resources, fostering its biodiversity as a natural treasure. This makes this small island a natural wonder unparalleled by any other island (nation). Based on this, and using the concept of "puzzle pieces," "six postcards, one Taiwan island" are used to emphasize Taiwan's diverse and rich natural resources. The placement of each animal on its postcard design closely corresponds to its habitat, such as the black-faced spoonbill in Tainan, the Formosan black bear in the Yushan region, the Lanyu scops owl on Lanyu, the green sea turtle in Penghu, butterflies found throughout the island, and fiddler crabs found along the western coast of Taiwan both north and south. 3. Concept and Spirit Each postcard includes descriptions of each animal's characteristics in Chinese and English, along with its location marked on a world map.
