Taiwan Trip Dec 6-14 - Day 4 清水斷崖/Lunch outside Tourist Centre

Engaged Mr Looi for today but he was at Taichung so his son, the younger Mr Looi drove us around. Very patient and polite guide/photographer/driver. He picked us up at 9.30am and sent us to Hotel Bayview to drop our luggages before the tour. First stop was 清水斷崖 - very beautiful, calm and deep blue sea.

Caught a passing train while on the cliff.

Insisted on 便當 so poor Mr Looi had to drive all the way back to buy lunch. This is the shop，　池上便當。


Start point of Taroko Gorge National Park - 東西橫貫公路 太鲁阁峡谷入口

After this, we had lunch under a shady tree outside the tourist centre.



The chicken/pork chop is packed separately. Very yummy/delicious 便當, 100X better than the TRA's.

My daughter bought some keychains at the visitor centre.
