Canaanland

Eastern Taiwan & Taroko National Park


This community-run operation occupies an offbeat building with canoe-shaped prow set in its own organic vegetable garden. Partly built with nuclear compensation money, it has a reliable restaurant and sells handmade jewellery and carved wooden relief panels.

It's also the place to come if you want to learn to construct a full-sized Tao canoe by making advance arrangements with master Zong Ja San.
