Attraction stories
Fanshuliao (蕃薯寮) is a scenic spot with a bridge called "No. 18" accross 70 meters deep and 50meters wide valley. It is said that in the past for local aboringinal young people, if someone want to be a chief in the tribe, he must use a bamboo pole to do pole jumpinp over the valley. A lot of younger people fail and die in the valley. Their bamboo pole was left and form a bamboo forest down to the valley.
Standing on the bridge, you can see the basin on the west and steep gorge on the east. Obviously, the lovely gorge of Fanshuliao is no match for magnificent Taroko Gorge. However, the contrast scene on both side is worthy a visit in east coast.
