Yushan has reached the last 28 in the vote for the New 7 Wonders of the world. The final stage of voting will be carried out online and the result will be announced in March 2011. Cast a vote to help Yushan become one of the New 7 Wonders!

The first 14 “natural wonders” were the Amazon rainforest, Angle Falls, Fundy Bay, the Dead Sea, Archipielago de Colon (Galapagos Islands), Colorado gorge, the Great Barrier Reef, Ha Long Bay, Iguacu Falls, Puerto Princesa underground river, Komodo National Park, the Maldives and Mount Vesuvius.

Yushan followed in the next group of 14. The park HQ called on people to cast and vote for Yushan and also vote for the wonders in the second group to help Yushan achieve a high ranking and attract more international attention to it and Taiwan.

In support of Yushan, Yushan National Park Headquarters has made a webpage for the activity and provided Chinese-English text and a film to explain how to vote. Members of the public can follow this guide to cast a vote for Yushan. For more information see the national park website.
