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.

  • It’s a small walk to the rock formations but the view and pictures are amazing to take. There are small markets nearby for food and drinks as well. It’s a good spot to visit but I wouldn’t recommend.....  more

  • This is my go-to happy place whenever I visit Taiwan. The heat did not stop me. Though it may just sound like rocks, there's so much to see here, even my third time back. The waters are so blue and the rock formations are really beautiful. This is truly nature at its finest. In the summer, I suggest coming as early as possible so it's not as hot, not to mention there's way less people. We arrived around 10am on a weekend and stayed for two hours. Bring an umbrella to shield from the sun as there's not much shade. The breeze from the waters was refreshing and made the scorching sun more bearable. Tickets are 120NT per person.
  • Wow!! Roaring Pacific Ocean, amazing looking rock formations along with a few iconic ones too. This area has a completely otherworldly feel to it. A great stroll. It would take about 1.5 hours to see most of the rock formations along the main trail. But if you are keen, you can spend more than half a day going till the end of the trail till the tip of the islet. Entry fee - NTD 200.
