Black Dwarf Cave, Coral reef cave in Liuqiu, Taiwan.

The limestone cave contains narrow passageways through coral formations, leading to coastal viewing platforms overlooking the Taiwan Strait.

The cave gained its name from a 17th-century incident where Dutch soldiers pursued indigenous inhabitants who had taken refuge in these natural formations.

The entrance features traditional stone tablets and an altar where locals place incense offerings according to regional customs.

Visitors need flashlights to navigate the confined spaces, and the cave remains accessible throughout the year with an entrance fee of 120 TWD.

The surrounding area houses numerous Chinese banyan trees growing directly from coral reef structures, creating an unusual ecological phenomenon.
