Most people come to Hualien to visit the Taroko Gorge. And with good reason—it's simply beautiful. With rope bridges over rivers, hiking trails with astounding views, and temples cut into the mountainsides, it's an unforgettable place. Feel the full power of the ocean at Shihtiping, a two-hour drive from Hualien, where the waves crash into the rocky shore.

We visited in Jan 2018 and the trail was still being constructed/fixed due to some fallen rocks. Our taxi guide then led us to a temple right next to the trail (you need to cross the red bridge and the tunnel then you'll see the entrance to the temple right on your left). There you can climb the stairs to their bell tower and I have to say it's one of the best look out you can get in Taroko. Literally I just stood their in awe, trying to absorb the beauty of this Nat park. Bonus: you can also ring the bell 3 times to make a wish ;)
