Taitung 2023 Top Things to Do
Voted as one of the world’s top ten beaches, the white soft sand and clear blue waters of Champagne Beach took our breath away – coupled with an early heart starter of a glass of champagne, served up by our expedition team. We followed a narrow path into secondary forest and flushed a large, dark imperial-pigeon which was the rarely recorded Vanuatu or Baker's Imperial-Pigeon. Continuing towards a fruiting tree our guide knew we located several Pacific Imperial-Pigeons and Metallic Pigeons for lengthy scopes studies. We searched far and wide for fruit-doves, hearing a Buff-banded Rail calling from tall grass and finding many Red-bellied Fruit-Doves. Checking a tree behind some buildings we stumbled upon a perched Vanuatu Imperial-Pigeon that sat long enough for everybody to get good views, the rarest find of the day for sure. We arrived early in the morning at the birders landing and quickly boarded the bed of an open truck.
Both parties saw Taiwan as a Chinese province and considered themselves China's sole legitimate rulers. Looming 509 metres, and resembling a giant bamboo stalk, Taipei 101 is the city's modern icon, the world's tallest building 台東剝皮辣椒 until Dubai's Burj Khalifa shot past it in 2010. It affords spine-tingling views from its 89th and 91st floor observatories (the lift hits speeds of 63km/h). There's a high-end mall in the tower's lower floors.
And while you're there visit the National Palace Museum. Best collection of Chinese artifacts in the world . Free English tours twice a day , free entry Saturday night after 6ish. I am lucky enough to be going for the one hundredth anniversary of the Chinese overthrow of the monarchy aka xinhai revolution aka double tenth day in october.

The National Park is famous for its cherry blossoms, hot springs, sulfur deposits, fumaroles, venomous snakes, and hiking trails, including Taiwan’s tallest dormant volcano at 1120m, Seven Star Mountain. No cherry blossoms today but the drive through this beautiful park was well worth it, even if the roads were a bit narrow in places. Much easier driving today with Lilly navigating and me starting to feel more comfortable with driving on the right, getting used to the car and the road signs etc. This place could be called scooter city, they are everywhere, scooting past you on each side sometimes so quick that one false move and they would be curtains. So it’s imperative to hold your line in the traffic and give plenty of warning to change lanes. Traffic is much quicker than in Japan, margins are small, drivers more flamboyant but still mostly very considerate.
And ever since, travel and discovery have been at the heart of his life and career. Detail of Native American totem pole from Bella Bella on the pacific north-west coast, now in the Horniman Museum in London. Early morning, we bid farewell to theSpirit of Enderby, crew and the Heritage Expedition team. The secondary forest along the track was full of birds and we quickly added Dark-brown Honeyeater, Fan-tailed Gerygone, and Shining Bronze-Cuckoo to the trip list. During the hike up to the village we noticed a promising fruiting tree and saw a suspicious fruit-dove fly in.

The lake itself is quite nice, and the sun moon lake temple is just insane. There are quite a few things around that area to see also – the wood museum is a must imo.
