Our third day in Taiwan was an adventurous one. Travelling from Taipei Main Station, all the way to the sacred Buddhist site of Lion's Head Mountain in Miaoli. The dreamy ambiance, paired with the breathtaking views, momentarily made me contemplate becoming a monk. This was an unforgettable experience!

Taiwan - Sun Moon Lake
The most beautiful lake in Taiwan, Sun Moon Lake is a lovely place to visit and unwind.
Located in central Taiwan, Sun Moon Lake is one of the only natural lakes in the country and arguably the most beautiful. The hiking trails and bike paths surrounding the lake are considered to be some of the most scenic on earth. If you want to get out on the water, you can either take a boat tour of the lake, stopping at many of the temples, pagodas and aboriginal villages, or you can rent a rowboat to explore the waters at your own pace.

Coastal Scenery – Dong’ao and Nan’ao
The inexpressibly impressive Su-Hua Highway twists and turns, often high above the sea etched into the cliffs, 118km between Su’ao and the coastal city of Hualien. On this trip we venture south to the town of Nan’ao. The highway, a delivery vehicle to magisterial scenery in places, began as a mere footpath hacked from the coastal mountainsides by China’s Qing Dynasty government between 1874 and 1876. From Nanfang’ao to Nan’ao, the terrain is defined by steep cliffs footed by wave-pounded rocky shores, indented periodically by bays, small fishing ports, and narrow arable alluvial flatlands.
The Dong’ao port, small and tranquil Fenniaolin Fishing Harbor, is reached from the coastal highway via a long cliff-base road beside a broad turquoise-hue bay and gravel beach decorated with a fantastic kaleidoscope of stones each an artwork in itself, each a painter’s canvas of marvel-inducing color variation in miniature. The coastal highway here, seen above, snakes along so high up that crested serpent eagles drift below rather than above it.
The harbor is on the north-side foot of nose-shaped Wushibi, the most prominent headland along the Su-Hua Highway, which projects far out into the sea. Clamber over the dike-wall on the harbor’s ocean-facing side to enjoy the thrilling seascape of wave-washed reefs and water-surrounded rock formations at the hidden-away “Secret Rocky Shore.”
In Nan’ao, the Chaoyang Trail starts by the roadside just before Chaoyang Fishing Harbor. Stretching 2.2km, it runs up and over 181m-high Guishan (“Turtle Mountain”). The steep first section is conquered in 10~15 minutes, delivering hikers to a hilltop lookout with a commanding overview of harbor, sea, Wushibi on the north, and a narrow arm of the fertile, farm-dotted Nan’ao alluvial plain. Keep an eye out for tree frogs trailside, and eagles overhead.
If you happen to understand Chinese, and happen to search online for good places for a Nan’ao meal, you’re sure to come across the effusive recommendations given the country-warmth Good Eats Café. On the main floor of a two-floor residence just off the coastal highway on the Chaoyang Harbor road, it’s run by a Taipei refugee whose plan to move here to run a small organic farm morphed into running the café to showcase healthy local produce. Meals, based on what she has just harvested and purchased at Chaoyang Harbor, include such Taiwanese rural-style treats as chicken soup with mustard greens and yam, Hakka-style “tofu” made with peanut and rice powder (no soybean), and pumpkin cake.

Chaoyang Fishing Harbor
This harbor, sleepy most of the day, is bracketed by high bluffs. Wushibi serves as the natural barrier on its north side. The waters beyond the harbor are the richest fishing grounds in Su’ao Township’s south area. The rocky shores here are also a favorite with shore fishermen.
Local buyers and tourists flock here daily at around 7am and 4pm, when boats arrive laden with catch from the deep open sea and especially the rich Kuroshio Current that rushes north off the east coast. After boats dock impressively large and high-value migratory catch is tossed up, and camera-toting tourists are mightily impressed with the seemingly chaotic yet highly disciplined public buying process, carried out rapidly with surprising quiet.
Finish your southeastern Yilan expedition with a windy walk along long, long Mystery Beach, just south of the Chaoyang harbor/trail area. Nature’s power is on glorious display here. Artists delight at the prodigious pile-up of driftwood specimens driven high up the beach by Taiwan’s typhoons, and the mighty coastal currents create tremendous roiling waters that bash the shore with thundering audio accompaniment.

A day in Taiwan Miaoli County
I was in Taiwan Miaoli producing for a documentary. A thought of showing the life in Miaoli came across my mind when I am listening to Not Alone a track from Linkin Park album. The moment of what I saw through my journey from place to place for filming just happens to match the music that I'm listening to. So I just grab my camera and try to capture down whenever i can to piece up a video portraying A day in Taiwan Miaoli County. Travelling period: 14th-20th Feb. Video shot on Canon 5D Mark2, 24-70mm lens. Feature: Taiwan Lantern Festival and Bombing of Dragon Festival 2011

Miaoli County
The main attraction in Miaoli is Shitoushan, or Lion's Head Mountain. This isn't one of the oldest temples on the island, but it is said to be very nice, and an interesting place to spend some restful days and nights.
Located between Hsinchu and Taichung counties, Miaoli is one of the best travel and vacation spots in western Taiwan. The county attracts over 6.5 million local and international tourism visitors every year with the help of its pleasing climate, convenient transportation, and six major attractions: the tung blossoms, wood sculpture, hot springs, fruit, ceramics, and Hakka food. Visitors will want to arrange a three-day stay to take it all in.
Each year in April and May, Miaoli turns into a beautiful sea of tung blossoms. These snow-white blooms blanket entire mountainsides and reflect the tranquility of the county lakes. Every year they attract throngs of visitors with their seasonal cheer, much like the cherry blossoms in Japan.
There are five major tourism areas in Miaoli, including: the Sanyi Wood Sculpture and Old Mountain Line Tourism Area, Dahu Strawberry Culture Park, Taian Hot Spring Scenic Area, Mingde Reservoir Scenic Area, and Nanzhuang Lion's Head Mountain Scenic Area. At all of these sites, visitors can also enjoy the local Hakka cuisine, aboriginal culture, recreational farms, coastal recreation, and festival activities.
