#wheretogo #taiwan #taroko ##hualien

Recently, I have had the privilege of visiting the Taroko National Park in Taiwan. Also known as the Marble gorge, it is a natural wonder that beckons travelers from around the world for a myriad of reasons. Inhabited for centuries by the Truku tribe and stretching 19 kilometers, it's a treasure trove of geological marvels and lush landscapes.

Some of the must visit spots include Wun Tian Siang Park, which offers panoramic views of the gorge. Buluowan is another captivating stop, where visitors can explore the indigenous culture. Meanwhile, the Shakadang Trail showcases the mesmerizing Shakadang River, its crystal-clear waters cutting through marble walls.

Whether you're a nature enthusiast or a history buff, Taroko Gorge offers a diverse array of experiences. A shuttle bus runs regularly between the attractions, making it an easy recommended day trip from Hualien.
