The route goes back to Fenglin township, the slow city (citta slow), to taste the slow food and life here.

East Rift Valley by Shuttle

If you have more than 2 full days in Hualien, you can arrange the other day in East Rift Valley except for Taroko Gorge that we mentioned earlier.

The East Rift Valley locates among Central mountain range and Coast mountain range. It isn’t only famous for its country scenery, but also for its diversity of culture from Hakkanese、Japanese and Indigenous people.

Rift Valley by Car/Scooter

We showed you how to travel in East Rift Valley by Taiwan Tourist Shuttle; however, if you can ride a scooter or drive a car, it will be more flexible and easily to explore.
