EP34 Pingtung Hengchun Township | Tricks and Treasure
from Bao Island Storyteller: Journey to the West
Welcome to Local Guys in Taiwan: Journey to the West — where three friends road-trip Taiwan, eating street food while listening to the story of the Monkey King. Today we've reached Kenting National Park — Taiwan's first national park, at the southern tip of the Hengchun Peninsula where three oceans converge: the Pacific, the Taiwan Strait, and the South China Sea. Coral reefs thrive offshore, grey-faced buzzards pass through each autumn, and the whole peninsula feels like a living ecological museum. Over braised Wanluang pig knuckles and the freshest catch from Houwanbi village, we watch Sun Wukong pull off his most outrageous trick of the entire journey — disguising as the demon's own mother to steal back the gourd, then using that same gourd to swallow the Golden Horn King and the Silver Horn King one by one.Location: Kenting National ParkFood: Wanluang Pig Knuckles | Houwanbi Seafood
