7 Days Budget DIY Solo Trip in Spring Season Taiwan... April 10 to 18, 2023
Heping Island is perfect for diving. With years of erosion by the wind and sea, the eroded rocks and coasts have formed special shapes. A big highlight of Heping Island Park is its sea-corrosion landscape. The park is full of sandstones. The strange rocks along its coastlines make a unique landscape after they are eroded by sea water and sea winds for a long time. Sea-erosion cliffs, sea-erosion platforms, sea-erosion ditches, and fatonis are all impressive, although the most outstanding might be the “mushroom rocks.” Other than the island’s geology, the body and trace fossils revealed by risen earth layers are Heping Island’s gems.
Yehliu is well-know for its unique rock formations and stunning scenery make it a place well worth visiting in Taiwan. As “the Crown coast” of the northern Taiwan and stretching about 2 kilometers into the sea, Yehliu Geopark possesses many micro-landscapes. Honeycombed rocks, mushroom rocks, Ginger rocks, chessboard rocks, sea arches/ notches and candlestick-shaped stone are just some examples of weathered grotesque rocks under spotlight. Fossils and trace fossils are commonly found in the park as well.
Northern Taiwan's Geoparks; Heping Island and Yehliu. These are layered sedimentary rocks. The marine cliffs are affected by crashing waves and tidal waves, like a cake that has been taken a bite, forming a sea erosion concave terrain (reminds me of Northern Samar's Biri Island rock formation). #taipei #taiwan #china #spring #pinoytraveller #solobackpacker #filipino #pilipinas #citytrip
