Taiwanese are so friendly and welcoming of foreign visitors. They always obliged to your requests of photo shoots.

[@eduardodasal455]

Wow i been there last year,im a OFW for 15 years in taiwan,when i saw your video oh men i miss taiwan already❤

[@tomtsai]

Glad you guys got to see one of my favourite spots in Taiwan before the earthquake. Sad about what happened, who knows when it’ll reopen again 😢

[@zxz1025]

The first time I went the ChangChun Temple is nearly 55 years ago, when I was a high school boy. Taroko national park is stunning! Sadly, 2 months ago, an earthquake destroyed or damaged a lot places in the park. You guys are smart using a rented motorcycle. It is the best way to explore Taiwan.

[@HardQoo]

Fortunately, you came to Hualien before the big earthquake. Nowadays, many places in Taroko have suffered landslides and are completely changed beyond recognition.

[@WLSG422]

As a taiwanese, I am utterly gutted to see that Taroko Gorge is now wrecked by the earthquake. It is one of the most beautiful places in Taiwan and i used to visited there yearly when I was a uni student. Really glad that you get to see the beauty of it!

[@syuan1999]

他們真的很幸運，至少在大地震前體驗到太魯閣的美景了，不知道這次的復原需要花多久時間，但等之後成功恢復成人們可以進去的時候，就是前往花蓮旅遊的時候了！

[@AIRJASON2002]

原本二月底的環島要去的（出發前看過全台各地後三天的天氣都是晴 才出發），誰知道到三仙台開始一路都下雨 到花蓮過夜，隔天天氣也不好，於是就放棄進太魯閣 誰知道這一錯過 不知何時才能再進太魯閣，我還有好多處還沒去

12:33 This is either the five-house milestone or three-house milestone on the scenery trail. When the 7.4 magnitude earthquake happened, tourists made to these two spots are saved. The vendors also lives in the stores so the uphills above these stores have enforced by strong concrete. People that did not make to these two spots are vulnerable and some were killed by the rocks and boulders rolling from the uphill.

[@hchiclets]

Thanks for documenting this, more precious than ever!

[@bankerdave888]

I am so jealous that you guys got to experience the beautiful Taroko National Park before the earthquakes! Great job!

Son personas de bonito corazón.que lindo conocerlos...mi país es el paraíso..UPS!!❤❤

[@ronbeaubien]

@11:22 Our guide explained, that at least for the Shakadang Trail, it was originally carved into the rock by Japanese soldiers when they occupied Taiwan. The indigenous Truku (Taroko) tribe in the area were traditionally headhunters. For boys to become men and take a wife, they had to first leave the village and come back with a human head to prove that they were worthy of being men. Of course, that meant that innocent travelers or other unsuspecting locals were murdered. In order to pacify the Truku, the Japanese army blasted out the trail using dynamite to make it easer to access the mountain and transport weapons to fight them.

Nice to have met you guys at Taroko, hope you enjoyed the rest of your Taiwan trip! Darren (@14:00)

[@chinkama2251]

哇，这个山，这个小河，峡谷和植被的样子，和四川西部阿坝州的映秀、汶川、毕棚沟那一带的景色，简直一模一样。虽然纬度差了很多，台湾的朋友有机会可以去那边比较一下。

Turquoise! That’s the color you’d find in certain parts of the river in the Toroko National Park. I assume you took this video before the huge earthquake in April because the Shakadang Trail has been closed off since the earthquake. 🙁

[@SammyandTommy]

Yes, thank you. Not sure why we couldn't think of the color turquoise haha. We were lucky enough to visit before the earthquake

it is Republic of China, ROC, the original and democratic China founded in 1911.

[@LH1xx]

Hope you will come to mainland China, you can compare mainland and Taiwan

[@SammyandTommy]

Stay tuned 😉

[@ronbeaubien]

@15:09 Perhaps the color you are trying to think of is the blue-green color turquoise.

[@artfquinn]

Isn't this park destroyed by earthquake in early April?

[@user-xb7sd8rj6j]

yes, it's so sad. Taiwan had lost the most precious pearl.

You both were luncky enough to pay your visit to Taroko Gorge before the big earthquake. Buddha and Bodhisattva as well as God bless.

Very lucky, so devastated to see how much destruction the people and the park are going through :(
