Last year Fayne Vars in Philippines visited
in Taiwan. She planned to see Taroko, Sun Moon Lake, Yangminsan and Maokong for
3 days. I said this is impossible because you need to rent a car in Taichung
and drove the Central Cross Island Highway and the road was not in a very good
condition. So she changed her plan. It suddenly strikes me that I have never
been there but Baisha Bridge was destroyed in Typhoon Matmo. It's a pity that
we can not visit there but I’ve got good news for Central Cross Island Highway
recently.
The Highway No. 8-Central Cross Island Hwy.
is open for cars(20 seaters buses included, no buses above 20 seaters allowed)
on August 11, 2014 at km 181 at Baisha Bridge. The highway Bureau maintenance
Luoshao office said that the road will be open for l20 seaters above bues after
17:00 August 20, 2014. The highway has been reopened with one lane for two-way
traffic.
The Highway No. 8 is now accessible to
theTaroko gorge. The Eternal Spring Shrine trail is now open from the north
entrance about 200 meter to the shrine. The Shakadang trail is now open for 450
meter. One has taken the same route back. The Swallow Grotto trail and the rest
of trails in the park remain closed due to the road closed. The Buluowan and
Tianxiang service stations are also open at 13:00 on August 11, 2014.

Village Taroko Hotel and Silks
Place Taroko Hotel were shut down for 19 days as a result of the typhoon.
They have recovered cancelled reservations now.
Farmers have carried agricultural products
to go down the mountain.
If you plan to that place, be careful.
