Yehliu, Coastal geological park in New Taipei City, Taiwan.
Yehliu extends 1,700 meters into the ocean, featuring numerous stone formations shaped by wind and water erosion over thousands of years.
The rock formations at Yehliu emerged from the Daliao Miocene Formation, created through continuous geological processes affecting the Datun Mountains.
Local fishermen maintain traditional practices in nearby Guihou fishing port, connecting the geological park to Taiwan's maritime heritage.
Visitors can reach Yehliu by taking bus routes 716, 862, or 953 from Taipei Main Station, with the journey lasting approximately 90 minutes.
The Queen's Head formation, measuring 4 meters in height, continues to narrow at its neck due to natural erosion processes.
