Taïwan, le trésor caché d'Asie - Échappées belles 4K

[Music] Hello everyone, what do we say here in Mandarin? Nice to see you again. This week, I have the privilege of taking you to a country we've never visited before in Échappées belles, since it's Taiwan. And to be honest with you, before planning my trip, I really didn't know what to expect. Indeed,

this volcanic island of Taiwan was better known for its expertise in electronics or textiles than for the splendor of its landscapes and its many tourist attractions. However, this country is well covered in mountains. It boasts a wide variety of landscapes with its coral islands, its white or black sand beaches like this one, or its bustling cities like the capital Taipay.

So, what lies behind the label "made in Taiwan"? With its dual Chinese and Japanese culture? What is its true identity? What are its treasures? It's time for me to bring you some answers. So welcome to the Taiwan archipelago and welcome to my beautiful escapes. [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] In Taiwan, Jérôme Piitorin discovers an astonishing island. Right there, behind this ridge,

no one has ever been there. Neither camper nor hiker, it's truly wild and extreme. What a crazy view! An island close to nature. Taiwan is the best place to start walking. It's well marked and above all it's never cold. Here, no one touches the turtles. Everyone respects the turtles. We are their friends and they are our friends. Protecting an

environment like this, so beautiful, is a wonderful mission. Bravo! A culture rich in these traditions. Tea for the Taiwanese is like wine for you French. There are great vintages, rare teas. I've been doing this for 30 years and that's what makes me happy, bringing them to life. In Jérôme, we're going to let you taste one of Taiwan's little specialties,
