　　For sweeping views across Taitung to the ocean and, on clear days Green Island, climb to the viewing platform in this steep, wooded park. It's just ten minutes' walk from the bus station. The park has other walks and an eight-storey concrete pagoda that looks much more authentic at night.

　　The lower slopes are popular with old folks belting out karaoke.

Must-see attractions

Eastern Taiwan & Taroko National Park

　　A pleasant place to smell the sea air, this park's signature feature is known immodestly as the Taitung International Landmark (台東國際地標; Táidōng Guójì Dìbiāo). That's a snaking arc of artistically pointless pedestrian ramp with rattan-weave shading that puts on a ten-minute light show at night and a central pavilion that...

Eastern Taiwan & Taroko National Park

　　Set on a big courtyard of ornate gateways lit with massed clusters of lanterns, this is Taitung's largest temple. It's a beautifully proportioned, intensely colourful landmark, dedicated to Mazu, the goddess of the sea. 　　In the evening, you might see groups of people practicing swordplay in the main courtyard. It's...

Taitung Railway Art Village

Eastern Taiwan & Taroko National Park

　　A spur line once brought trains to the centre of Taitung. That line was decommissioned in 2001 and has since been turned into an excellent cycle path. The old station building now hosts an information centre, exhibition room, bus station and graphic design gallery. The area all around has been...

Beinan Site Park

Eastern Taiwan & Taroko National Park

　　If you've got an hour to wait for a train, a fine way to spend it is strolling through this landscaped park. It features a significant Neolithic site, but is more visually interesting for the reconstructed straw and bamboo prehistoric houses designed on the evidence of the archaeological findings. 　　An...

Eastern Taiwan & Taroko National Park

　　The seafront rocks within this coastal park are geological curiosities, many forming cuesta structures: angled geological sandwiches with alternating soft and hard layers where differential erosion creates a range of picturesque shapes, often evoking culinary names, notably mushrooms and tofu. 　　The park has several view-platforms, an area of attractive banyan...

National Museum of Prehistory

Eastern Taiwan & Taroko National Park

　　This hi-tech and engaging if occasionally disorientating museum charts Taiwan’s geological birth and human prehistory as well as introducing the island's indigenous Austronesian peoples. 　　There's a cafe serving indigenous food (closed Tuesdays) and the vast building is set in attractively manicured parkland. It's 8km west of central Taitung. The only...

Eastern Taiwan & Taroko National Park

　　If you've got your own wheels, Taimali offers a pleasantly low-key alternative to Taitung as a travel base with long beaches, flower-patched mountains, coffee plantations and sweeping viewpoints looking north across the crashing surf to distant silhouettes of the Coastal Range Mountains. 　　The seemingly endless curl of Taimali Beach is...
