Alpine hiking

       It was the second day that we stayed at Taroko National Park. Today was a very interesting day. we went hiking at Shakadang Trail. On the way there, there were many tunnels, it made the trip more interesting. Finally, we arrived at water curtain cave, it was amazing! We wetted all my stuff, I was very interested at how it became a water curtain cave. Due to a crack created by the waterfall, it became water curtain cave over time. At night, we headed to the Meifeng farm. It is a beautiful farm which is located in the center of Taiwan at about 2014m. We breathed the fresh air and enjoyed the delicious food.


Today was really a tough day, we went hiking at highest mountain called hehuan mountain. It was hard for us to breath comfortably, so we all felt exhausted. we did a lot jump shots and we felt excited.
