Travelogue of Yehliu Geopark

Visiting the outskirts of Taipei, how can you miss the natural wonder of Yehliu Geopark? Located in Wanli District, north of Taipei, this famous coastal area attracts countless tourists with its bizarre rock formations and spectacular coastline. I arrived at Yehliu on a breezy morning, and the unique geological landscape before my eyes seemed to transport me to another world. Upon entering the park, the most striking feature is the various uniquely shaped rocks. After thousands of years of erosion by waves, weathering, and tectonic movements, these rocks have been sculpted into numerous strange shapes. Walking along the trail, the most famous 'Queen's Head' immediately catches everyone's attention. This natural rock formation, resembling the elegant profile of a queen's head, is delicate and vivid, making it a must-photograph spot for visitors. However, due to increasing weathering, the Queen's Head has become more fragile, and protective measures have been put in place in the park. Visitors are encouraged to appreciate this natural wonder while also cherishing it. In addition, the park features other uniquely shaped rocks such as the 'Fairy Shoe,' 'Tofu Rock,' and 'Candle Rock,' showcasing nature's boundless creativity. Each rock has its own unique characteristics, like natural artworks with stories to tell. Walking along the trail, with the sea breeze and the sound of waves in the background, one feels incredibly relaxed. Especially near the 'Sea Erosion Platform,' visitors can get a closer look at the power of sea erosion. The tidal changes here are significant, and when the tide recedes, you can see a rich ecosystem, including small crabs and starfish, adding to the fun of exploration. This trip to Yehliu made me deeply appreciate the greatness of nature. Every scene in Yehliu Geopark, whether it's the uniquely shaped rocks or the magnificent coastline, is awe-inspiring. This magical land is not only a paradise for geology enthusiasts but also an ideal place for families to relax and connect with nature. If you come to Taipei, don't miss this feast of nature!
