Awi is a "69 year old pensioner" from Taichung. He sends a card from the Department of Information of the Hsinhai Elevated Road, found in Taipei.
The Hsinhai Elevated Road is named in honour of the 1911 Revolution, or Xinhai Revolution. This revolution ended China's last imperial dynasty, the Manchu-led Qing Dynasty and led to the establishment of the Republic of China. It ended 2132 years of imperial rule, and 276 years of the Qing Dynasty. The revolution is celebrated as Double Ten Day in Taiwan (10 October), and in the People's Republic as the Anniversary of the 1911 Revolution.
Mölln is a small city of about 20 000 located in northern Germany. The Elbe-Lübeck Canal flows through the town, and there are eight small lakes that surround the city. It was founded in the 12th century and was a part of the Old Salt Route. Salt that was produced in the salt mines of Lower-Saxony was shipped to the Baltic Sea. Till Eulenspiegel, a legendary trickster known for exposing vices and provoking thought, is said to have lived in Mölln the last year of his life. He apparently died of the plague in 1350, but his existence has never been proven. Mölln has several monuments dedicated to him.
