The Taipei-Yilan Highway has been voted Taiwan’s most-haunted site in
an online survey of the nation’s top 10 haunted places conducted by
Internet portal Yam.com.
The winding mountain road, which runs from New Taipei City’s Xindian District (新店) to Yilan County — also known as Provincial Highway No. 9 — has many hairpin turns. It has been dubbed the “Highway of Death,” because of the many fatal accidents that have happened on it. In recent years, traffic on the road has declined considerably with the opening of the Hsuehshan Tunnel and the Taipei-Yilan Freeway (National Highway No. 5) in June 2006.
