Taroko National Park Tour
Description
At the indicated time, you'll make your way to Taipei Central Station. There, you'll take a 3-hour train ride on your own to Hualien.
Once you arrive at Hualien station, your guide will be waiting for you and taking you to Taroko National Park. The first stop will be at the Taroko Shakadang Trail, where you can enjoy the crystal clear Liwu River and the surrounding marble canyon with its lush subtropical vegetation. It's a stunningly beautiful location and an iconic symbol of Taiwan.
Then, we'll head to Swallow Grotto, where you can see some spectacular views of the gorge. You might also make out some figures in the rock formations, like the Native American chief. Do you see it?
Afterwards, we'll enjoy a delicious traditional meal in one of the park's restaurants. After eating, we'll cross the Cimu Bridge and enter the 9 Turns tunnel to admire the faults and steep cliffs, one of the park's most fascinating and awe-inspiring areas.
We'll then visit the Eternal Spring Sanctuary, built to honor the 212 workers who lost their lives during the road construction. Finally, we'll stop at a marble factory and Qixingtan Beach to enjoy the beautiful views of the Pacific.
The tour ends at Hualien Station, where you'll get back on the train to Taipei on your own, concluding this 14-hour journey.
