11.1 Yehliu GeoPark 野柳地质公园

After several hours wondering at Jiufen Old Street( 九分老街), we took the bus back to RuiFang Station 瑞芳車站, and get our luggage. From RuiFang Station we took an 30 minutes bus(fare around NT$50) to Keelung Station (基隆火车站).

We then deposit or luggage at the Keelung Railway Station. From the Keelung Railway station, just take a 40 minutes bus to Yehliu GeoPark (野柳地质公园). Entrance Fee NT$50.

The bus stopped at the main road and we have the walk 15 minutes to the actual entrance of the park.

Yehliu GeoPark is a park full of rock that are was formed by the sea erosion.. Each of the rock has been given imaginative names based on their shapes.

The only one that I could easily recognize is The Queen's Head (女王頭)

There are other rocks, such as "The Fairy Shoe", "The Bee Hive", "The Ginger Rocks" and "The Sea Candles", but none of them are that easy to recognize.


Some beautiful landscape around the park.


The day is getting dark and we quicken our steps to catch a bus back to Keelung Station.

The Famous Keelung Miaokou Night Market 基隆庙口夜市 is nearby the Keelung Station. With all the luggage and I wasn't feeling that well, we directly headed back to the Taipei Homestay for the rest of the day.
