Beautiful biking along the coastline north of Hualien

The pebble coast just few kilometers north of Hualien is just gorgeous, the ocean surf so powerful and could not stop watching with beautiful blue-green water and in the far distance the mountains.
Felt a bit like being in New Zealand.
Following the road further north, do not miss the small detour to Sanzhan Brigde, Taroko NP Visitor Center (seems the NP itself is still closed atm but the visitor center is open) and Chongde Gravel Beach.
If too far both ways you can time yourself taking the train back from Chongde train station to Hualien (where you can also rent bikes).
