細味台北書店~~舊香居
舊香居是另一種書店風景和味道，位於龍泉街的店有着沉靜之美，散發舊書店獨有的紙張味道，牆上有于右任的作品，書櫃上書畫類特別多，例如溥心畬書畫展覽場刊、日本二玄社出版的吳昌碩印譜等等。
舊香居的前身「日聖書店」在1979年成立，由吳輝康經營，主要買賣古書與字畫，2003年起交由第二代姊姊吳雅慧和弟弟吳梓傑經營，並搬到龍泉街。
定期舉辦展覽與講座，營造與客人交流的平台。小書店就有小的好，充滿個性之餘，店員也會按客人的口味選書，提供找書線索與客人關係也比大型書店更親密。
思考與知識比什麼都重要，根本無分新舊。
地址﹕台北市龍泉街81號（Facebook專頁列有3間店）
營業時間：下午1:00至晚上10:00（周一公休）

Great Britan Top 10 Must Do & See (6)
6. Hiking in Lake District
This mountainous region in the far North West of England is a popular tourist destination due to its beautiful scenery and it’s designated status as a national park. The whole area is spotted with bodies of water, though Bassenthwaite Lake is the only one with the word “lake” in its name. Most of the others are simply referred to as “waters”. This area is home to Wastwater, England’s deepest lake as well as Scafell Pike, England’s tallest mountain.
The landscape of mountains and lakes is not the only reason to visit; the Lake District is home to rare wildlife and has plenty of activities on offer.
The Lake District National Park is one of Cumbria’s biggest draws. Within the park you can go on hikes of varying levels.
The Lake District National Park is a antique establishment and accommodation in Windermere is quite unique. Throughout the Lake District you will discover charming old cottages for rent. The Ambleside cottages and Windermere district are a favourite of many tourists due to their proximity to several attractions. You can rent an all-inclusive, traditional cottage for 300-600GBP per week. You can also visit the most photographed building in the district, the Little House on the Bridge.
The Lake District is perfect for adventurous types as it has lots of water sports, biking, climbing and hiking.

Every August, the Edinburgh International Festival transforms one of the world's most beautiful cities, presenting three exhilarating weeks of the finest creators and performers from the worlds of the arts - for everyone.
Edinburgh's unique natural landscape houses a mass of spectacular architecture. Calton Hill, with its panoramic views and unfinished acropolis, towers over the east end of Princes Street. To the south, Holyrood Park's six hundred and fifty acres of parkland stretch from the new Scottish Parliament building towards the Palace of Holyrood House and on to Arthur's Seat - a craggy, glacier-carved remnant of the city's volcanic past.
At the top of the Royal Mile on another volcanic peak, stands Edinburgh Castle, with views across the whole city. Beside it is The Hub, home of the Edinburgh International Festival.
During the peak festival period in summer, the population doubles as it plays host to hundreds of thousands of visitors and performers from all over the world. The huge range and number of artistic events, performances and exhibitions makes a trip to Edinburgh unforgettable.
