DaHua pothole, Natural formation in Pingxi District, Taiwan.
The Keelung River Valley near Dahua Station contains numerous deep circular depressions carved into the riverbed by water and gravel movement over time.
The geological formation process of these potholes began thousands of years ago through continuous erosion of rock surfaces by flowing water and sediments.
The site holds significance in local geological research, providing researchers and students with examples of natural river erosion patterns and rock formation studies.
Visitors can reach the location by taking a train to Dahua Station and following marked paths along the riverside to observe various sized depressions.
The temperature at the formation ranges between 16 to 20 degrees Celsius throughout the year, with occasional short rain periods affecting water levels.
