[wa0142] [Xianhuan bridge and environs]
480 Travel and Transportation; 130 Geography; 133 Topography and Geology; 487 Routes
Translated Japanese caption: ""A superb view of Xianhuan 仙寰 bridge and its Environs. This is Great Taroko's first stone barrier. Xianhuan Bridge is nearby a ravine junction that is like two precious jewels. The marble jutting out of the ground into a steep cliff is comparable to a pearl and is covered thickly with foliage. The rainbow-like steel suspension bridge, with the Aborigine boy being showered in the emperor's influence, all make this scene live up to the bridge's name, producing a nostalgic effect.""
