EP19 Yilan Su'ao | The Heart Sutra

from Bao Island Storyteller: Journey to the West

Episode nineteen reaches the southern end of Yilan at Su'ao — a town famous for something genuinely rare: a natural cold carbonated spring, one of only two such springs in the world open to the public. The water bubbles like soda water, stays cool even in summer, and has been used since the Japanese colonial era. At Qili Bay, there's a Pearl Milk Tea Museum dedicated to the history of bubble tea. And in the story, the final administrative details of Pigsy's joining are sorted, an all-night fight ends in unexpected friendship, and Tang Monk receives the Heart Sutra — the guiding text for the whole journey.Location: Su'ao, YilanFood: Su'ao Honey Cake | Fresh Seafood
