Taroko Swallow Grotto Trail Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Yanzikou is a section of cliffs in the Taroko Gorge, with towering canyons, thick and majestic cliffs, and tortuous caves. Standing on the edge of the highway guardrail, the opposite mountain wall is close at hand. Due to the long-term erosion of the limestone by the stream, the softer rock layers gradually form caves, and swallows build their nests in these natural caves. In the early years, swifts and foreign swallows often foraged in groups in the air, forming a spectacle of "Hundred Swallows Singing Valley", thus winning the reputation of Yanzikou. It is a pity that due to too many tourists, the swallows have now been scared away by the noise of cars and people. Only occasionally there are still a few shuttles nearby, leaving only the wonders in the cave on the rock wall, which only adds to the regret.

Tailuge Swallows Pass is a beautiful attraction in Hualien. Walking on the trails in the cliffs, enjoying the cliff valley scenery, the spectacular natural scenery is hard to forget at a glance. This is the only scattered road in Taiwan that can walk into the cliffs.
The swallow mouth is a cliff of the Tailuge Canyon, in which the mountain walls are majestic and the valley is one of the famous scenic spots along the Central Hengxiang. In the early years, due to the frequent rain swallows, the Yangyan foraging in the air, forming the wonder of the "Baiyanming Valley", so it won the reputation of the "Swallows".
Very impressive natural cave. Not to be missed by tourist. You can easily spend a full day here.
Beautiful scenery, fresh air, convenient transportation, a good place to travel
