Hello my queen! Hanging bridge to Shifen Waterfall Shifen Waterfall 十分大瀑布Ī 40 metre tall waterfall that creates a rainbow as it splashes into the lake, widely regarded as the most scenic in all of Taiwan. The queue here is very long so I managed to take a quick selfie. Behind the mushroom rock #timershot #nophotographer Yehliu Geopark’s most famous formation is the “Queen’s Head” ( 女王頭), and is located along a cape stretching out from the town of Wanli. Mushroom Rocks ahead! Part of the Daliao Miaocene Formation, this cape stretches around 1,700 meters, formed as thousands of years of geological movement forced the Datun Mountains to change their shape, jutting out into the ocean. It is so vast that Mr Robert Told us to roam on first two sections only.

Since we’ll go there at spring time, we decided to bring only a backpack and some handbag for travel essentials. Forming a group of 4 (with my office friends), we got each roundtrip ticket to Taiwan at PHP 2890.02 (that’s PHP499 one-way base fare!).įor planning, I let the them choose the spots we’ll visit and what Klook purchases we need then estimate. Then came October first week, budget airlines published promo fares and I immediately grabbed the opportunity to get them. Our key then was to grab a promo fare (as I always did). Until last year, cherry blossom forecasts popped up in the internet and the country that I little did know have spring season, is our northern neighbor, Taiwan 台灣 officially known as Republic of China (Chinese: 中華民國)! Coupled with visa-free privilege granted to us Filipinos last November 2017, our hopes of experiencing cherry blossom spring suddenly went high. I thought, maybe next time, when I have enough money I guess. Watching numerous animé and Asian drama shows (K-drama, and Jdorama) featuring spring season makes me wonder, how does it feel basking on a cool day with cherry blossoms (sakura) decorating the green fields after harsh winter passed? I would always think of going to Japan and South Korea to experience that, but these countries (that require visa) would be expensive for most as airfare and tour prices skyrocket on spring season (usually from March to May).
