Destination Profile
When the first Portuguese sailors laid eyes on Taiwan, they dubbed it the Ilha Formosa – the Beautiful Isle. It's easy to see why. From the meadowlands of the Yangmingshan National Park all the way to the rust-tinged beaches of the Kenting National Park, this is a land of wild wonders that'll have you reaching for the hiking boots. Adding to that are the forested walls of the jaw-dropping Taroko Gorge and the sinewy mountains of Yushan, not to mention the buzz and energy of the great capital in Taipei. Tempted? Cheap flights to Taiwan from USA can transport you from West Coast cities across the Pacific in as little as 13.5 hours. Other connections will have stops, and take upwards of 20 hours from departure to arrival.
A mystical monastery hides in the sheer-sided depths of Taroko National Park, surrounded by soaring cliffs and roaring rivers.
