Vacation Travel In HuaLien (花蓮市) Part 2
April 14, 2009 Posted by Chris
The next stop in HuaLien for us was at ToRoKo gorge. This is a beautiful gorge with many unique looking rocks cut away by a stream of water throughout the years. We took our scooters through the gorge for many hours climbing up the mountain right in the middle. There were many pathways that we look and walked on (trail of 9 turns) along the way up and down the mountain. Take a look at the pictures and at least one should qualify was breathtaking even though I'm no professional photographer. If you ever get the chance to go to ToRoKo gorge, know that there's also a bus you can take to go through it.
The first pictures are all on at the entrance and on the way to ToRoKo gorge from HuaLien. It was about a 15-20 minute ride away. Scooters are really fun to ride but probably very dangerous. The beginning of the ToRoKo gorge trail shows you exactly how beautiful the whole trail would be.
We crossed many bridges and saw many different parts of the gorge that the river had cut away. More and more, so much to see its hard to take it all in at once or even over the hours that we were there.
The almost perfect picture with the temple & waterfall about is a very famous temple in Taiwan. It's just picturesque and for some reason looks perfect. Inside is just a normal temple but outside looks so awesome. We went back to HuaLien and went to a famous restaurant. Their great dish was simple beef noodle soup. It was actually very good, spicy like I like it.
