Stretching some 1,700 m (5,577 ft) into the ocean, YehLiu Geopark serves as a natural exhibition area for some of the strangest tent rock formations in the world. Dotted with hoodoo stones, the promontory offers fantastic views of the distinctive geological formations created in Miocene, which pushed the Dalian Mountains out of the sea. Marvel at the rocky Queen’s Head, the rock resembling a profile of Elizabeth II Queen of England, then check out Sea Candles, Fairy’s Shoe, or Ginger Rock. You can have fun concocting your own name for some of the shapes while walking through a forest of tall mushroom-shaped rocks. This bizarre Martian-like landscape can be reached by bus 90 minutes from West Taipei station.

A beautiful family weekend spot. Good to walk around, relax and enjoy the wholesome beauty of nature. The special rock structure and the sea view are something worth visiting on a sunny day. Many sea food restaurant/stores with delicacies. Easier if you got your own transport. Just a 40 minutes drive from Taipei.

This is a place really worth visiting, very beautiful and interesting. The visit is not very long, qi would say about 1h up to 2h depending on your pace. There is also a small aquarium with a show. If you are going there with your kids, it's also worth seeing. The show is fun and works magic with the kids. The aquarium is more basic, and if you are used to seeing aquarium there is nothing really special about this one. The show is worth the money though.
