It was just a day after our tour of Taroko Gorge[1], and we were already talking about coming back. There’s so much natural beauty to be found here that the two days we spent in Hualien felt hardly enough.
But as breathtaking as Hualien is, it wasn’t just its natural beauty that resonated with us. We fell in love with the atmosphere too, and its vibe. Compared to other cities we visited in Taiwan, Hualien felt the most laid back. It has a mountain town feel that’s even-paced and unrushed, perfect for middle-aged travelers like us. If you’re drawn to nature and partying isn’t part of your vocabulary anymore, then you’re going to enjoy spending time in Hualien.
Before our trip, I read how Hualien and the eastern coast of Taiwan is a special place for many Taiwanese. As short as our trip was, it was more than enough time for us to understand why.
