Spot description - Taroko Visitor Center

  The camera is located at the Taroko Administrative Center. The scene shows (from left to right) the front entrance to the Taroko Visitor Center, the center's front plaza, the parking area, and lush green mountain peaks.


  The camera location is on the Taroko terrace, which is near the intersection of Taiwan Route 9 (Su-hua Highway) and Route 8 (Cross-Island Highway). This spot is the eastern entrance to Taroko National Park, the park's management hub, and the first stop for many visitors to Taroko.


  Taroko has always been famous for its stupendous marble canyons with near-vertical walls. The road up the valley of Liwu Stream passes by a constant parade of breathtaking cliffs, sheer mountainsides, gorges, and waterfalls.

  The terrain in Taroko National Park mostly slopes down to the sea from the tall mountains in the west. Roughly half of the area in the park is above 2,000 meters in elevation, and the park contains 27 of Taiwan's 100 highest peaks.
