Chan's Gorgeous Travels

"When you're going through hell, keep going."

This quote by Winston Churchill means you don't want to stay there, so you must keep going in order to overcome it, which also means still a lot of blood, sweat and tears. I want to expound on this a little further. Staying in hell would be too costly, too painful for one to not do something about it. Hence, one must do something in order to overcome it because there seems to be no other choice. I'm sure you won't disagree to this.

Back to my travel story, I went to the Hell Valley a few years ago (before the pandemic) but it was only lately I was able to assimilate the learnings from the whole experience.

Taiwan is such a charming country. It might be small, but there are many amazing places to see. I would say that the Hell Valley of Beitou is one of them.

On the way to the Hell Valley, you will be greeted by some lotus ponds with beautiful blooms of lotus flowers which smile towards the sun. The way to Hell Valley seems to be very enticing indeed. There are small town shops along the way for some cup of Joe on a cold weather. That is if you visit on the country at the right time of the year. Just enjoy the cool views and the people that you will come along with. Afterall, it is all about the journey, isn't it? And if you're lucky, it would also be the company.

It won't take much of a walk then you're in Hell Valley already. Make sure to take a lot of photos as souvenirs. I'm sure though that you won't stay that long here as there's not much to do in this place, so as you can see in the first picture, everyone's standing. You'll just say to yourself, 'Where to next?' ;)
