In early time ,a lot of tall mango trees stood on side- walks in order,the passengers and riders appreciated their shadow and enjoyed the cool wind in the hot sunshine. When economical growth brought heavy traffic, the mango trees gave the way to the cars and disappeared slowly. In Southern Taiwan ,they still survived on countryside.
Taking green line bus, we started from Tainan Train Station bus stop to Yujing. When the bus passed Shing-Hwa ,through the green tunnel,all along the road ,we saw full of mango trees growing on the hills and valley. This is the main famous producer of mangoes. Both Shine-Hwa and Yujing have Mango and Fresh Fruit Market, during the mango season, people from Tainan and elsewhere come to buy the freshest mangoes.The best famous species are I-Wen and King-Hwan. They are delicious and sweet smell.
Mango is a tropical and subtropical fruit. Taiwanese continued to improve the species .Recently, the mango trees are shorter and heavy bearer, the fruits are bigger and sweeter. Because of fruitful ,people picked up some of them to peel and put salt,sugar before maturing. It tastes the flavor sweet and sour like the feelings of falling in love ,we call a nickname" Lover fruit ".
The farmers pay attention to their mango trees, when the fruits are near mature,they cover every fruit tenderly with a little bag to avoid the insects biting or planting diseases.
In Summer season,mangoes are used to be eaten raw and make ice-cream, juices,beer and are widely used in cuisine. If plenty of mangoes more than in need of the market ,the farmers bake them into dried mango goods instantly. The ripe mangoes color are variously yellow, orange, red or green,looking beautiful and tasting delicious and smelling good.That is a deep image of fruit.
印象清晰的芒果
早年，許多高大的芒果樹是整齊站立道路兩旁的行道樹，在炎熱的驕陽下，行人和騎車者都很感激他們的樹蔭和享受習習涼風。當經濟成長帶來擁擠的交通，芒果樹因讓道給汽車而逐漸消失。在南台灣，他們仍然存活於鄉間。
乘坐綠線公共汽車，我們從台南火車站前的公車招呼站往玉井站出發。當公車經過新化，穿過綠色隧道，整條路上，我們看到許多芒果樹生長在山坡上、山谷間。這裡是主要的著名的芒果產區。新化和玉井都有芒果青果巿場，在芒果產季，人們從台南和其他地方來這裡買新鮮芒果。最著名的品種是愛文和金煌，他們非常美味香甜。
芒果是熱帶和副熱帶水果。台灣人不斷改良品種。近年來，芒果樹矮化且產量更多，果實更大更甜。因為果實很密很多，人們採摘部分未成熟的果實去皮加塩和糖，嚐起來味道酸甜像戀愛的感覺，因此被稱為情人果。
農民非常呵護他們的芒果樹，當果實接近成熟時，他們為每一顆芒果溫柔的套上小紙袋，避免蟲咬或病蟲害。
在夏季，芒果通常是拿來直接生吃，也可做冰淇淋，果汁，啤酒和廣泛用於料理。假如芒果盛產超過市場需求，農民會立刻將多餘的烘成芒果乾。成熟的芒果色澤有黃色，橘色，紅色和綠色，看起來漂亮，嚐起來可口，聞起來香甜。是一種令人印象深刻的水果。
