 
After enjoying breakfast today, we will set off to witness the world-renowned natural wonder, the breathtaking Taroko Gorge, where Mother Nature's masterpieces unfold. Established in 1986, Taroko National Park spans across Hualien, Nantou, and Taichung. The park features towering peaks and almost vertical gorges formed by the long-term erosion of marble by the Liwu River, combined with the continuous uplifting of the earth's crust. The park's elevation difference from Qingshui to Nanhu peaks reaches 3,742 meters, creating a diverse and complex vegetation landscape and providing a habitat for various wildlife.
*Due to geological conditions, Taroko National Park is prone to rockfalls. Please do not venture alone or stay in rockfall areas, and follow the safety instructions given by the tour guide.
東西橫貫公路牌樓 East-West Cross-Island Highway Arch: As a symbol of Taiwan's first transversal road, the Central Cross-Island Highway, the government built an arch inscribed with "東西橫貫公路" (East-West Cross-Island Highway) - hence it is also known as the Taroko Central Cross-Island Highway Arch. This road is commonly referred to as the "Central Cross-Island Highway."
長春祠 Changchun Shrine: From here, you can enjoy a distant view of the Changchun Waterfall and pay tribute to those who sacrificed their lives during the construction of the Central Cross-Island Highway. This serene shrine stands amidst the lush mountain valleys, with cascading waterfalls creating a harmonious and picturesque scene.
Please be cautious of the unstable terrain in this area, as rockfalls or collapses may occur. Pay attention to the surroundings during the visit, and do not attempt to enter if there is any sign of falling rocks.
*The path from Changchun Shrine to the Taroko Tower involves steep stairs made of cement, which can become slippery when wet. Please be mindful of your steps.
*For those who are not feeling well or have heart conditions, please carefully consider walking on the steep sections of the trail.
九曲洞 Jiuqudong (Tunnel of Nine Turns): This is one of the most magnificent sections of Taroko Gorge, with a 700-meter-long trail that requires retracing your steps. The trail runs closely along the deep mountain valley, offering a breathtaking view of the Liwu River's rushing waters below. The towering cliffs on both sides and the dramatic landscape leave visitors in awe. In addition to the gorge itself, pay attention to the fascinating geological features on the marble walls, such as faults, joints, and folds, as well as the resilient rock-dwelling plants. The Jiuqudong is a popular recreational path suitable for the general public and serves as an outdoor geological classroom.
部落灣管理站 Puloh Wan Management Station: Puloh Wan Terrace is a large, two-tiered river terrace downstream of the Liwu River. In the Taroko language, Taroko means "the place of tracing hunting." This area used to be a settlement of the Taroko tribe. Today, the Taroko National Park Headquarters has established a management station here, which incorporates indigenous cultural elements into the park. The station provides tourist information, multimedia presentations, and consultation services. On the left side of the station, you'll find the Taroko Tribe Craft Exhibition Hall, showcasing exquisite works of art made by the Taroko people, such as weaving and rattan crafts. The second floor of the exhibition hall houses a souvenir shop. For lunch, we have arranged an authentic mountain delicacy meal at the Tianxiang Rest Area. In addition to the usual stir-fried noodles and rice commonly found on flatlands, you can savor highland delicacies like bamboo shoots soup or locally made millet wine sausages, as well as fresh mountain vegetables unique to the highland region.
Special Reminders:
Due to the geological landscape and weather conditions, specific areas within the Taroko National Park may occasionally be closed for visitation due to rockfalls or other factors. In such cases, alternative arrangements will be made based on the day's situation. Thank you for your understanding.
