🎑🌊 Nature, Culture & Coastline at the East Coast National Scenic Area 🌿✨

#hellohalloween

Stretching along Taiwan’s eastern shores between Hualien and Taitung, the East Coast National Scenic Area offers a dramatic blend of ocean, mountains, and living culture. The rugged terrain—where the Pacific meets steep coastal cliffs and rolling hills—makes it one of Taiwan’s most visually stunning regions. 

This scenic zone is rich in cultural heritage and nature alike. It’s home to the indigenous Amis people communities, whose villages dot the coastline and whose festivals add vibrancy from July to August. The area also features striking geological formations—sea terraces, caves, reefs—thanks to the tectonic activity beneath the land. 

For visitors, the East Coast offers something for every pace. Enjoy a relaxed drive along Provincial Highway 11 with the ocean on one side and mountains on the other, stop for a seafood lunch in a fishing village, hike a short trail to a cliff viewpoint, or discover art installations as part of the region’s Land Art Festival. With its mix of nature, culture, and quiet charm, the East Coast National Scenic Area invites you to pause, breathe, and explore Taiwan’s less-traveled beauty.
