Under the scorching sun at Yehliu Geo Park

The main attraction of the Yehliu GeoPark is the rock formations along the coastline. Limestones carved by wind and water have transformed in shapes that resemble mushrooms, candles, ginger and even a woman’s head. Unfortunately for us, we arrived at Yehliu at mid-morning and we had to go through the obligatory video presentation. It wasn’t until late in the morning that we explored the rock formations to take photos. By that time, the sun was directly overhead — not exactly the most ideal lighting for taking nature photos. So, if the colors appear too saturated, you know why.

Between the parking lot and the entrance to the park were stalls selling dried fish and seafood. Not surprising. Yehliu Geo Park is located along a fishing coastline.
