We are a well-off family from Singapore. To the influence of my father, who is a geologist. I love the geology among all of the academic subjects at school. By an opportunity of my dad’s business trip to Taiwan, our family got a chance to catch a glimpse of the power of nature in Taiwan. After the important conference to my father ended, we decided to invite my grandpa and grandma who lives in Taiwan to participate in a Taipei private tour with us.
You can join the trip to Yehliu with Justaiwantour here.
Yehliu Geopark at Taipei is our next destination after admiring the beautiful flowers at Chungshe Flower Garden at Houli, Taichung. We actually visited Yehliu Geopark a few years ago during a company trip. The whole area is very big and we did not have enough time to visit all the attractions in Yehliu Geopark. Thus, this time we managed to visit some places that we did not manage to visit previously. It is mind-blowing when I was at Yehliu Geopark because it is such a big area of honeycombs and mushroom rocks. Although we had been here several times, this is just one corner of Yehliu Geopark. The seawater and wind eroded those rocks for a long time. There are many mushroom-shaped rocks on this side which is near to the sea at Yehliu Geopark. Platforms are built for visitors to walk easily to admire the rocks formation.
You know what? Yehliu was recommended by CNN as one of the must-see attractions in Taiwan.
The sea wind here is very strong. Therefore, we brought a jacket while visiting Taiwan during the cold and windy season. If you are interested to know more about Yehliu Geopark, there are signboards such as this one. This signboard explains about the honeycomb rocks formation. Firstly, acidic secretions from marine creatures that adhere to the rocks’ surfaces weakened them. After that, seawater can easily corrode the surfaces. In conclusion, this is how the honeycomb structures are formed. After the meaningful and wonderful trip to Yehliu, I think of my favorite to geology have grown bigger and bigger.
