Travel in Taiwan (2015, 7/8)
By Rick Charette
Qixingtan is a landscaped area immediately north of Hualien City. The name means “Seven Star Lake,” but this is in fact a lovely arcing bay of crystalline blue-green Pacific waters, invariably made even more photo-friendly by local fishermen busy on their craft close inshore. The bay’s north end is the north terminus of a breezy seaside bike path stretching 21km to Nanbin Park on Hualien City’s south side. There are bike-rental stations near the bay’s north and south ends. Among the many other facilities are the Stone Sculpture Park, Star Watching Plaza, Sunrise Building (Qixingtan’s sunrises are renowned), children’s playground, and seaside botanical garden. At bikeway-side are signboards explaining the seaside ecology, many with English. Another key draw is the terrific camera-perfect view of distant Qingshui Cliff.
Shitiping. The name means “stone steps.” The dramatically terraced volcanic rock and raised-coral formations here form what looks like a staircase rising out to sea. The sea’s great erosive powers are in visually inspiring evidence here – all about are kettle holes and surging tide pools. The teeming marine life draws fishermen, shellfish collectors, and scuba divers. The distinctive ecology also features such oceanside-adapted plants as screw pine, cactus, and morning glory. There isn’t much shade, so bring water; there’s also ice cream, popsicles, and other cooling goodies available at the visitor center.
Starchasers (as in “movie stars”) will be especially thrilled to learn about the existence of Niushan, where legendary director Martin Scorcese, Irish actor Liam Neeson, and other big names recently did shooting for the movie Silence, scheduled for release in 2016. What you’ll find at the end of a steep, narrow, long-grass-brushed road that leads off the here inland-and-upland coastal highway is a long and dramatically fetching arc beach bracketed by mountains that drop into the sea. The only buildings here are right behind the isolated beach – those of the Niushan Huting, a combination restaurant/café/bar/homestay/campground complex (rainbowiscoming.com/huting; Chinese), owned by members of the Amis tribe, Taiwan’s largest, and beside these a couple of tourist-draw thatch-roof structures from the faux village built for Silence (the rest were being torn down the day we visited). “Niushan” means “cow mountain”; to find the side-road entrance, look for the highway-side “Niushan Huting” sign on a totem pole capped with a steer-head sculpture (26.6km mark).

One Day in Hualien: Getting wonderfully lost in Taiwan
We've recently made the leap to Taiwan so we decided to do some exploring of our new home town Hualien.
Not knowing the language and having no real reference points, we've spent a great deal of time getting lost, which is fine by us...
Taiwan is home to some incredible mountain ranges, river gorges and scenic coastline. It's an adventurers paradise.
We decided to take a GoPro along to document one of our days in Hualien, here's how it went...

Taiwan - The Heart Of Asia Timelapse
Taiwan – The Heart Of Asia is my best work. After 5 timelapse from different cities around the world, I try to catch one country in a movie. I explore Taiwan over 3 weeks in November 2017 and stay in 4 big cities (Taipei, Taichung, Tainan and Kaohsiung), switch 9 times my hotel, create 99 timelapse with over 21000 images, 137GB in around 24 hours recording time.
After several hours video editing I present my masterpiece.
Taiwan himself is a great place to travel. Not so common for western tourist, but well developed for individual tourist, pretty cheap, super save, clean and with fantastic food, landscapes and people.

Trekking in Taroko National Park, Taiwan
We took the train from Taipei to the city of Hualien on the east coast of the island. Just 15km (9 miles) north of the city sits Tarok National Park which is one of the nine national parks of the country. We rented a car near the train station for our outing.
The most phenomenal aspect of the park is the amazing relief. In a single afternoon you can travel from rugged coastal cliffs through a maze of subtropical forested canyons to high elevation subalpine coniferous forests.
In about 60 km (37 miles) the landscape rises from sea level to some of the tallest peaks in Taiwan at over 3400 meters (11,154 feet). That's steep!
The force behind the steep valleys and narrow canyons is a (geologically speaking) relatively fast rate of uplift combined with ample water. Over the last 70 million years, these two forces collaborated to form the world's deepest marble canyon. The slot canyons here are remarkable with narrows sections a thousand feet high and only a dozen yards apart, reminiscent of the Virgin River in Zion National Park in Utah, USA. Ignore the fact that Zion is in the desert, and made of sandstone and Taroko is subtropical and comprised of marble, and these two gorges have a lot in common.
As you can see we had a great time!
Guyi Garden 古猗园
