Ali Shan - historic small gauge train from Changhua. Japanese colonial history and natural scenery. 2. Taroko Gorge National Park 3. East coast rail from Taipei to Taidong - winding through gorges, rice-fields, Pacific Ocean views and the rift valley between central and coastal mountain ranges. 4. Tainan - history and authentic Taiwan culture. 5. National Palace Museum - treasures of imperial China My 5 picks:

Perhaps five places is not enough. I know there was one more place I really wanted to include. Neil, I thought about including the Northern Cross Island Highway, but just chose Lala Shan instead. I'd like to ride all those roads on my bicycle some day. Thanks for your lists everyone. Perhaps five places is not enough. I know there was one more place I really wanted to include.
