Tunnel of Nine Turns, Taroko Gorge... - Taroko Gorge

Well I think this is the right heading. (Tailuko is kind how you pronounce it in Mandarin) I'vebeen in Taiwan for almost 7 years and know my way around pretty good, but deciphering the VT city list for Taiwan is something of a mystery....

Anyway, Taroko is one of the best parks in the country. The Marble Gorge is unlike anything that I have seen elsewhere. So, I will add as much info as I can here...

Insightful page. Your tips on afternoons w/ a Heineken & Cohiba were most helpful. Do they have "light beer" in Taiwan? 'Cuz when I asked for one in a pub in Ibiza, the bartender almost spit out his dentures in laughter!
