Timeless Journey of Taiwan: Hengchun & Lily Town

Taiwan movie phenomenon Cape No. 7 has turned the relatively quiet town of Hengchun into an international tourist hotspot overnight as fans of the romance drama flock to pay pilgrimages to the locations where the film was shot. Situated at the southernmost tip of Taiwan, Hengchun boasts year-round warm climate (hence the town's name, literally "perennial spring"), passionate residents, breathtaking natural landscapes, and many sites of historical values.Taiwan has been called the "Kingdom of Butterflies" with more than 400 species of butterflies in Taiwan, and 40 of them can be found nowhere else in the world! There was a time during the 1960's when thousands of workers here were producing butterfly art and crafts. It is estimated that some 10 million butterflies were caught every year.
