Stone man and wife in Lu Liao Keng

The stone man and woman in Lu Liao Keng are two natural rock formations standing along the creek, distinguished by their separate shapes and positioning. They sit near a parking area in Hulong Village with information panels and ceremonial spaces available for visitors to explore.

A powerful storm in 2001 separated the two stones when Typhoon Nari caused flooding and displaced the female formation downstream. Local residents successfully relocated both formations back to their original site in 2003.

The local community honors the stone couple on March 28th, treating this date as a regional Hakka Valentine's Day with traditional ceremonies and performances. The celebration has become central to how residents connect with this place and each other.

Visitors will find parking nearby and clear information panels to understand the stones and their significance. The site offers space for reflection and small ceremonies, so budget time to walk around and take in the setting.

Local folklore tells that the stone husband glows at night and wanders during rainy evenings, returning to his partner before sunrise. These stories add a magical layer to the site that continues to fascinate both residents and visitors.
