In the morning, after having a Chinese-style breakfast at a nearby restaurant, we rode our scooter up a mountain to Kenting National Park. We hiked for 4-5 hours and visited almost every site inside the park, including the amazing stalactite cave and the tower that allows one to see the entire Hengchun region and the southernmost point of Taiwan.
we were so cool~~On the way down from the mountain we happened to discover a nice little country road surrounded by farmland, and it was so pretty; I felt like I was back in the French countryside! We rode all the way to the end of the road and back, and I thoroughly enjoyed the scenery and the solitude of the area. We then ate lunch at a local famous beef noodle franchise on Kenting Main Street. Compared to the night before, we did not see many tourists, partly because it was a weekday, which meant that stores wouldn’t open until the evening.
After lunch, we rode the scooter all the way to the southernmost point of Taiwan, Eluanbi Park, where we saw old monuments from the Chin Dynasty, including the famous lighthouse (we also encountered some adorable puppies running around the parking lot :) ). We had a nice walk along the boardwalk running along the perimeter of the park and stopped at several ocean viewing points.
That night, we were very tired from all the walking we had done, so after dinner on the main street, we went back to the hotel, watched TV and enjoyed the wind whistling outside the window.
