Kenting National Park, established in 1984, is Taiwan's oldest and most famous national park. Spanning the southern tip of the island, it encompasses lush tropical forests, dramatic coral coastlines, and pristine beaches. Visitors can explore hiking trails through dense jungle, snorkel among vibrant coral reefs, and spot unique wildlife such as Formosan rock macaques and migratory birds. The park's diverse ecosystems and scenic viewpoints, like Eluanbi Lighthouse, make it a must-visit for nature lovers.
