A group of 15 students from Chinas Peking University have formed a cycling team with their Taiwanese counterparts, planning a round-island trip over 9 days to experience the beauty of Formosa.

After checking their equipment, the group sets off.

15 students from China's Peking University are in Taiwan for the first time.

They will finish a 832 km round the island bike trip in 9 days to experience our country's beauty.

These 15 students are all from Peking U's bicycle club.

Thus, they are familiar with bicycle trips.

But some are nervous and excited because they are unfamiliar with Taiwan's terrain and hot weather.

The accompanying Taiwanese students are just hoping the typhoon doesn't hit Taiwan.

The group started off in Taipei's traffic.

The Mainland students take pictures at every red light to record the historical moment.

They will have 8 more days to learn about Taiwan's local culture and the country's spirit.
