More Taroko National Park pictures
Here are some more pictures I took in the Taroko National Park in Taiwan. All these pictures were taken at the start of the Baiyang Trail which is a walking trail that winds it way up a narrow gorge, through a few man made tunnels to a set of waterfalls high in the mountains. The trail starts by going through a mountain in a very long tunnel, which you can see the entrance of in the second picture. The last two pictures were taken just outside the other end of the first tunnel.

Hualien Pictures
These pictures were taken from our hotel room window in the city of Hualien on the east coast of Taiwan. The street in the first picture had a great little noodle house restaurant the first time we were in Taiwan. They served the best noodle meal in Taiwan. Unfortunately when we came back this time they were gone.
The second picture shows the mountains behind the old Hualien train station. The gorge that can be seen in the mountains is just one of many along the coast in this part of Taiwan. The Taroko Gorge just to the north of Hualien has what many people say is some of the most spectacular scenery in Taiwan.
The third picture shows another view of the mountains behind the old Hualien train station.
The last picture is a view of the park in front of the old Hualien train station.
