On the eastern coast of Taiwan sits the beautiful city of Hualien. The
Spanish came here to mine for gold in the early 1600s, but it was not
until around 150 years later that the first permanent settlement began
in the rocky coastal terrain. Hualien is a small city that is mainly
known as being a starting point for anyone visiting Taroko National
Park. Inside the park lies Taroko Gorge,
a 19km-long canyon that twists and turns through jagged cliffs. Today,
Hualien has a listed population of just over 100,000 residents.
