Taroko Gorge. This has to be one of the most impressive natural sites I've ever seen, next to Yellow Mountain [黃山] in mainland China. I'll let the pictures hopefully speak for themselves.
Hanging bridge over Swallow Grotto [燕子口], one of the famous tourist sights
The river at the entrance of the park
Golden bodhisattva statue at the temple near Tianxiang [天祥], a small town about one-third of the way into the gorge
Bridge to the temple in Tianxiang, looking up at the mountains
Debris from recent rockslide, requiring the road to be detoured. These occur very frequently in Taroko Gorge due to the incredibly steeply-angled mountainsides
Rockslide. Not quite so recent (as can be seen by the small vegetation growth)
Mountaintops. Because we rode mopeds we were able to get further than most tour buses, which cannot continue past Tianxiang
