Yehliu (野柳) is a 1,700 meters long cape on the north coast of Taiwan, between Taipei and Keelung in Wanli Township. The cape, known by geologists as the Yehliu Promontory, forms part of the Taliao Miocene Formation. It stretches approximately 1,700 meters into the ocean and was formed as geological forces pushed Datun Mountain (大屯山) out of the sea.


Yehliu is a small fishing town northeast of Taipei, Taiwan known for its geological rock formations carved out by sea erosions. Thousands of tourists flock here every year to see the famous Queen's Head, along with Fairy Shoes, Ginger Rocks, Sea Candles and other cleverly-named rock formations.

In the north of Taiwan close to the second largest harbour in Keelung is one of the world's greatest natural wonders. Due to its bizarre rock formations, Yehliu Park provides visitors with scenery that could be from a distant planet. But the polymorphic shapes of the rock are not extraterrestrial but the result of an ancient process that dates back several million years, erosion.

Some of the rocks seem to grow out of the ground like giant mushrooms. The reason for this lies in the composition of the rock strata. The more elevated sections are often far harder and weatherproof than the lower layers that crumble away and have been transformed into gravel and sand.

In 1964 the Yehliu Peninsula was officially designated as a park and since then it has been one of Taiwan's most important and popular tourist attractions. The park consists of a total area of around fifty three hectares of land and more than four hundred hectares of coast.
Its rocky terrain flanks the South China Sea.
It is famous for the curious rock formation, carved by sea erosion. A number of rock formations have been given imaginative names based on their shapes. The most well-known is the "The Queen's Head" (女王頭), an iconic image in Taiwan and an unofficial emblem for the town of Wanli. Other formations include "The Fairy Shoe", "The Bee Hive", "The Ginger Rocks" and "The Sea Candles."

Taiwan Yeh Liu/Yeliou [Jilong] is "One of Top Ten Most Beautiful Coast in China"Ranked by China National Geography Magazine.

Apart from the scenery, Yeliou Scenic Area also features the Ocean World, which is the first ocean park in Taiwan to have live sea creature performances. At Ocean World, you are able to see performances of dolphins and sea lions. The Ocean World also features a 100 meter long undersea tunnel for you to watch all sorts of marine life at your own leisure.

After you have finished observing the special coastal geology, if you have the time and the inclination you can indulge yourself in some water activities. You might consider taking a relaxing holiday at Greenbay, a natural beach with eye-catching scenery that has been designated as a coastal resort. The center of recreation in this area is between Yeliu and Wanli, where there are all sorts of recreational facilities and a 1.5-kilometer beach where you can swim, surf, or engage in other water sports. The steep mountain slopes just next to the seashore make this a popular place for hang-gliding and parasailing as well.

If you want to visit Yeh Liu, a tour can be a good idea. You can follow a two days tour of Yeliu with a travel route such as :
Day1 : Yeliu -> Yeliu Ocean World -> Green Bay
Day2 : Eighteen Wang Gong Temple -> Fugui Cape
