Drive from the west exit of the Changchun Tunnel of the Central Cross-Island Highway, then turn south(left) and go along the old Central Cross-Island Highway to the car park close to Liwu River, and you can see the Changchun (Eternal Spring) Shine which commemorates the 226 personnel (military veterans) who died during the construction of the Central Cross-Island Highway (1956~1960). Spring water adjacent by the Eternal Spring Shine flows all the year, and the Highway Bureau named it after "Changchun Falls." It is now a scenic attraction with special significance on the Central Cross-Island Highway.

Changchun Temple, built in Tang Dynasty style, is embedded in the mountain wall according to the terrain and stands under the cliff. It is exquisite and solemn, and is a magnificent scene on the Central Cross-Island Highway. There is a circular trail in front of the temple for visitors to enjoy the canyon and meandering scenery.
Changchun Temple is located not far from the entrance of Taroko Gorge and is a scenic spot in Taroko Park. It enshrines the spirits of 212 employees who died on duty during the construction of the Central Cross-Island Highway to commemorate these great heroes.
Changchun Temple, one of the beautiful scenery of Hualien Tailuge Gorge! I heard that there is still a moving story. Just wait for everyone to come here and listen to the tour guide's story carefully! _________ Taiwanese people say that Hualien is Taiwan's back mountain pure land, good mountains and good waters! It's absolutely true, it's really beautiful.
When the Central Cross-Island Highway was built, many employees who participated in the construction were buried in Taroko due to the rugged terrain and backward technology in the mountainous area. The Changchun Shrine is dedicated to the spirits of 212 veterans who died on duty during the construction of the Central Cross-Island Highway. The Tang poetry-style building of the Changchun Shrine is embedded in the mountain wall according to the terrain, standing under the cliff, with a refreshing waterfall in front and a circular trail around it, where you can enjoy the canyon scenery. It is also a good place to take a walk and enjoy the scenery.
Changchun Temple is located not far from the entrance of Taroko Gorge in Hualien County, Taiwan. It is a scenic spot in Taroko Park. It is dedicated to the spirits of 212 employees who died on duty during the construction of the Central Cross-Island Highway, in memory of these souls who appeared for this project. This temple has been rebuilt for the third time due to earthquakes and landslides. The trail is now closed and cannot be entered.
I love the reason why the Changchun Shrine was built, please see the information board near the toilet area. The walk to the Changchun Shrine is no more than 15 minutes, and it is a bit special because you go through the tunnel and you will see an underground river. The Changchun Shrine itself is not that special, but it is worth a visit because the scenery on the way here and around is very nice. The location of the Changchun Shrine is very clever, under the cliff, next to the valley, and there is a constant flow of water below. The whole scenery is like a painting! Actually seeing such a scenery, there is a sense of shock that I couldn’t feel just by looking at the photos before. But this shrine is also for the veterans who opened up the Central Cross-Island Highway, so that when everyone enjoys the beauty of the Central Cross-Island Taroko, don’t forget the efforts of the ancestors!
We admired the Eternal Spring Shrine from a distance in the rest area, but didn't get up close. The shrine houses the memorial tablets of employees who died in the line of duty during the construction of the Central Cross-Island Highway, commemorating these heroes. The scenery at the Eternal Spring Shrine is stunning. The building itself seems embedded in the cliff face, with a waterfall cascading below – it looks like a painting!
