This two-day trip to Yehliu will not only introduce you to the popular family hotel ~ Inn Hotel For lunch on the first day, we went to the famous landscape restaurant ~ Four Sisters Seafood Restaurant, which is a minute’s walk from the hotel. When you come to the North Coast, you want to eat seafood. Choosing a seafood stir-fry restaurant is the best way to enjoy it. However, since the season we went to is April, it is not the crab season, so we ordered another main set meal in the store, live grouper for two. A super delicious delicacy. Definitely your first choice at Yehliu Seafood Restaurant! !

This time we chose the one night, two meals option. Dinner and breakfast were provided. We had buffet for both meals. The cafe on the first floor of the main building was also fully booked during the evening dining time. The Fisherman's Kitchen buffet on the second floor of the main building has two evening hours: 17:00 and 19:00. If you want to have dinner, please inform the reservation time in advance. Since the entire venue can accommodate about 200 people, it is recommended that you arrive early to queue up for entry to avoid queuing too long. This is the queue at about 19:05. It has reached the stairs. The dining environment in the restaurant is very large and the seats are quite spacious. The exaggerated multi-color design of the seats makes it feel like this is a very colorful and vibrant restaurant. The decoration design of the buffet makes me want to get up and get the food. The seats are available for two, four, five, and six people. The service staff will lead you to the seats and arrange the seats.

Inhouse Hotel is divided into the main building and the branch building. The main building only has sea view rooms and city view rooms, while the branch building has an additional mountain view room. The children's play area and outdoor entertainment area are located in the branch building, while the cafe and gym are in the main building. Today we stayed on the 7th floor of the main building. The corridor design after going upstairs was very textured. The soft yellow light was not too glaring and the brightness was just right. The straight lines in the carpet pattern give people a sense of continuous extension, making the corridor look very spacious.

A good place worth visiting. It feels very healing to see the whole sea. There are really few tourists during the off-season. There are many places to sit and think about life. I hope the wind won't be too strong next time 😂😂

#goout Xiaoyeliou was recently renamed Fugang Geopark. It is a natural wonder. The shapes of the rocks washed out by the waves are very special, such as honeycomb, tofu, mushroom, etc., but I think the most similar one is the big-eyed frog stone. However, because the rocks are rugged and uneven, everyone must be very careful when walking on them!

Taitung Ono willow, nature's ingenuity! The Xiaoyeliu Geopark in the north of Taitung Fugang Fishing Port is the southernmost scenic spot on the eastern coast. It is named after the rich and varied sea erosion landscape, which is comparable to the Yehliu Geopark on the north coast. . This is definitely the place we are seriously underrated! Although there is no famous reputation on the north coast wild willow, but there are also a lot of crowds, more can be directly close to the sea, very close to appreciate and trample on these strange stones, change thousands but incomparably true, deeply sigh The magic of nature. and there is no need for tickets here. It takes only 3-5 minutes to walk to the shore. The shape of various rocks is worth watching, and there is a vast Pacific Ocean view, which makes people feel very relaxed. The sea is mixed with large coral reefs, forming various forms of sedimentary rocks, such as large reefs like camels, which are not large but extremely rich. All kinds of meteorites form a natural seaside "step". Every step must be careful, and if you accidentally step on the air, you will be in close contact with the sea. These hard rock and the raging waves that are constantly slamming ashore, the closer to the sea, the more shocking the waves from the eardrum are, the more exciting the scenery is, the more layers are enjoyed. Awe and fear, come here to pay attention to personal safety.

#September2025 A stroll along the trails of Xiaoyeliu reveals how waves, salt spray, and time have sculpted sandstone into tofu-shaped rocks, honeycomb rocks, and mushroom-shaped rocks. Looking up, you'll be greeted by a brilliantly clear blue sky, while turning back reveals sea-eroded terraces and a silvery-gray riverbed. The eastern coast transforms a "nature textbook" into a scenic stroll. • Name | Xiaoyeliu (Eastern Coast Geopark Xiaoyeliu Recreation Area) • Location | Northern suburbs of Taitung City, approximately 165K–167K on Provincial Highway 11 (north of Fugang Fishing Port) • Price | Free admission; parking is subject to on-site announcements • Hours | Open all day; early morning and evening are the most comfortable light and temperature • Transportation | 10–15 minute drive from Taitung City; or take the East Coast bus to Xiaoyeliu Station • Nearby attractions | Fugang Fishing Port, Jialulan, Taitung Seaside Park, Sanxiantai (northbound) Background and History Xiaoyeliu borrows its name from the famous Yehliu on the north coast, as it shares the same sea-eroded landforms and weathering patterns. Years of pounding seawater, salt spray, and wind have repeatedly eroded and cracked the sandstone/conglomerate surfaces, resulting in: • Tofu rock: with regular joints, resembling cut cubes; • Honeycomb rock: with a surface riddled with holes of varying sizes, as if pierced by bees; • Mushroom rock: narrow at the bottom and wide at the top, resembling a mushroom; • Sea erosion platforms and potholes: most visible at low tide, resembling the surface of the moon. To protect the fragile rock surface, the park has recently installed wooden boardwalks and viewing platforms, directing visitors along a fixed path that is both safe and user-friendly. ⸻ My actual walking route (follow the photos) ① Grassy slope at the entrance → Lime-white coastline Park the car and walk to the beach in less than two minutes. The first sight is the white-gray rocks and the shimmering blue sea, with clouds sweeping across the sky like a brush. Lower the horizon so that the sky fills two-thirds of the frame, and your mood instantly brightens. ② The boardwalk curves into the shrubbery The wooden boardwalk winds its way around the shrubbery, with signage explaining the rock formations and topography. I like to pause at corners to watch the wind gently push aside the branches, revealing a wider view. ③ River Mouth and Seawall Walk north to a wide-open view overlooking the silvery-gray gravel bed at the river mouth and the blue of the open sea. At low tide, the seawall is exposed; lowering the exposure to EV −0.3 will enhance the details. This is a great spot for tripod-mounted silhouette portraits. ④ High Point Ocean View (Finale) Finally, we climbed to a small hillock. To the left were the coastal mountains, and to the right was the Pacific Ocean. The waves rolled onto the shore, creating a slow, soothing rhythm. I sat by the railing, enjoying the breeze and listening to the waves rippling the gravel. ⸻ 10 Reasons I Recommend Xiaoyeliu 1. Free and No Barrier: Close to the city center, easy to find parking, and easy to get to whenever you want to see the sea. 2. High density of landscapes: Tofu rocks, honeycomb rocks, mushroom rocks, and potholes are all available in one place. 3. Friendly trails: The wooden plank road is gently paved, making it a leisurely stroll for families and adults alike. 4. Great for photography: The white limestone against the blue sea and sky creates clean, beautiful colors, making any photo beautiful. 5. The tides are dramatic: At low tide, see the platforms, tide pools, and biodiversity; at high tide, capture the breakers. 6. Learn something: The explanatory signs clearly explain the geology, making it the perfect outdoor geoscience class. 7. Convenient connections: The same route connects to Fugang Fishing Port, Jialulan, and Sanxiantai. 8. Perfect for all seasons: Dramatic clouds in summer, transparent in autumn and winter; even cloudy days offer a cool, rich texture. 9. Great for watching the sunrise or the blue sky: golden light in the morning, deep blue in the evening, two different expressions in one day. 10. Close to the Port: If you're heading to Green Island/Lanyu, consider taking Xiaoyeliu an hour before and after as a buffer for a stroll. ⸻ Practical Tips (Avoidance List)⚠️ • Safety First: The sea-eroded platforms are slippery and prone to long waves. Please stay within the established trails and safety lines. Avoid wading in the waves or climbing dangerous rocks. • Sunscreen and Hydration: The east coast experiences intense sunshine, so a hat, sunscreen, and 500–1000ml of water are essential. Bring a light jacket if the sea breeze is strong. • Tide Watching: To see the platforms and tide pools, check low tide times; if you want to photograph the wave line, go before or after high tide. • Leave No Trace on the Coast: Light items (invoices, plastic bags) can be easily blown away, so please take all your trash home. • Respect the Ecosystem: Observe the creatures in the tide pools, but do not grab or turn over rocks. ⸻ Photography Cheat Sheet (You Can Take Great Photos Even on Your Phone) 📸 • Make the Sky the Star: Place the horizon in the lower third of the frame; the blue sky and cloud patterns will fill the frame. • Foreground Anchors: Use the corners of white limestone, the curved plank road, or the shadows of shrubs as the foreground for a more stable composition. • Textured Close-ups: Close-up shots of honeycomb rock with side lighting create a three-dimensional texture. • Silhouettes: Stand on the ridgeline for 5–10 minutes after sunset, raising your hand to point out the sea. This creates a truly memorable story. ⸻ Food Review (with Address) Blue Dragonfly Fast Food Address: No. 214, Zhongzheng Road, Taitung City I ordered: Fried Chicken Leg + Chicken Nuggets Platter + Coke. Why I Recommend It: The sea breeze makes me crave something savory and savory. The crust is thin and crispy, and the meat is juicy. While there are often lines, the tables turn over quickly. After a stroll, returning to the city is perfect for refueling. If you're craving seafood, you can visit the seafood shops at Fugang Fishing Port; a clockwise itinerary is most convenient. ⸻ Itinerary Suggestions (Apply Directly) Half-Day Easy Version Taitung City → Stroll along the Xiaoyeliu Trail (1.5 hours) → Dinner/Fishing at Fugang Fishing Port → Return to the city and visit Tiehua Village Day Coastal Version Morning bike ride in Seaside Park → Scenic viewing of Xiaoyeliu → Lunch in Fugang → Sunset viewing of the blues at Jialulan → Accommodation in the city ⸻ My True Feelings What captivates me most about Xiaoyeliu is the **"lines of time**": the wind rips the clouds into threads, the waves grind the rocks into round shapes, and the salt spray carves a dense network of tiny holes into the rock face. Walking along the boardwalk, the sea breeze gradually washes away the noise in your mind, leaving only your breath and the sound of the waves. When the Pacific Ocean retreats its sunlight, leaving behind the purest blue, you'll understand—travel isn't about constantly visiting attractions, but about finding a place and slowly experiencing it. 👏🏻 ⸻ Conclusion If you want the easiest way to experience the beauty of Taitung's geology and the vibrant colors of the ocean, Xiaoyeliu is the answer: free, easy to get to, packed with attractions, and incredibly photogenic. Remember to check the tides, wear non-slip shoes, and take your trash with you so you can see the same clean and stunning coastline next time you return.

If you enjoy nature's uncanny handicrafts, then Fugang Geopark is a must-see in Taitung. Located north of Taitung City, it's nicknamed "Little Yehliu" for its bizarre rock formations, echoing the geology of Yehliu on the north coast. Entering Fugang Geopark is like stepping into a natural sculptured art gallery. Years of wave action and weathering have shaped a variety of geological wonders—tofu rocks, mushroom rocks, honeycomb rocks, tortoise shell rocks, potholes—each with its own unique texture and shape, begging for closer inspection. 📸 A Photography Lover's Paradise This is not only a dream destination for geology enthusiasts, but also a paradise for photography enthusiasts. Stroll along the wooden boardwalk, enjoying the azure Pacific Ocean and capturing the magnificent coastline. In the morning, the golden sunlight casts a warm amber hue on the sea and rocks, while in the evening, you can capture romantic images of the pink-orange sky intertwined with the waves. Many people particularly enjoy visiting during low tide, as the intertidal zone reveals more sea-eroded platforms and offers close-up views of starfish, hermit crabs, and various intertidal creatures, making it a perfect place for exploring with children. 🌿 A Stroll Through Nature The park features extensive trails and informational signage, ensuring you don't get lost and allowing you to gain a deeper understanding of the geological history of this area. As you walk, listening to the crashing waves and feeling the sea breeze, your pace naturally slows, as if time seems to flow more slowly. We especially recommend the observation deck at the front, offering stunning views of Green Island and the Pacific Ocean. If you're lucky, you might even witness the majestic whitewater crashing against the rock faces. 📍 Suggested Side Trips While visiting Tomioka Geopark, why not explore the surrounding area? • Tomioka Fishing Port: A great place to enjoy fresh seafood, especially the freshly caught sashimi and fried squid. • Taitung Seaside Park: Cycle along the coast and experience Taitung's uniquely slow pace. • Xiaoyeliu Camping Area: If you'd like to extend your stay, you can choose to camp or park your car and sleep under the stars. 📝 Travel Tips • Wear non-slip shoes, as some rocky areas can be slippery. • The summer sun is intense, so remember to wear sunscreen and stay hydrated. • Follow park regulations and avoid climbing or damaging rocks to preserve this beautiful scenery. At Fugang Geopark, you'll discover the boundless creative power of nature. Waves and time, the gentlest yet most steadfast carvers, have carved unique works of art onto this coastline. Standing between the rocks and the waves, your emotions will be washed away, leaving only admiration and emotion for nature. #AugustGoodPlaces2025

Xiaoyeliu is anything but small; it is the most exquisite section of Taitung's coastline. Unique rock formations are scattered along the azure shore, with the waves of the Pacific Ocean continuously crashing against the reefs, creating natural artworks sculpted over millions of years. As you walk forward from the entrance, you'll encounter fascinating geological formations such as potholes, honeycomb rocks, and tofu rocks, making every step feel like stepping into the colorful pages of a geology textbook. The most captivating sight, however, is the endless ocean. Sitting by the rocks, with the sea breeze brushing your face, you can catch glimpses of the faint silhouette of Green Island in the distance. No words are needed; simply watching the waves ebb and flow brings a sense of tranquility and grandeur unique to Taiwan's eastern coast. If you're lucky, you might even spot small intertidal creatures scurrying about, adding a touch of life and surprise to this geological wonderland.

📍Taitung Xiaoyeliou The first time I came to Xiaoyeliou, I was completely shocked! This place is like a sculpture museum of nature. Each rock has its own appearance and story.

All along, I thought this place was called Xiaoyeliu. It turns out that it has a real name, "Fugang Geopark". It just has the nickname "Xiaoyeliu" because its terrain is similar to the famous Yehliu Geopark in the north. The Xiaoyeliou Coast is composed of alternating deposits of thick sandstone and thin mudstone. After crustal movement, long-term erosion and weathering by sea water, a diverse and unique geological landscape has been formed. The rocks here have different shapes, showing the wonders of nature. The park is well planned and the trails are equipped with barrier-free ramps, so there is no need to worry about pushing a baby stroller. There is also a visitor center here, but it is easy to overlook this place. After entering Xiaoyeliou, the first thing you will see is a building with a sloping roof. There is a geological exhibition hall inside, which introduces the unique geological landscape of Xiaoyeliu and the formation and evolution of the coastal mountains. The visitor center provides diverse and friendly facilities, including a breastfeeding room, a Muslim prayer room, and accessible toilets. The child accidentally fell that day, so we took him to the visitor center, which also provides basic medical treatment.

#Seaview Xiaoyeliou in Taitung was named because its topography is similar to Yehliu in the northeast, and was later called "Fugang Geopark." There are many strange rocks and stones here, mainly because the sea erosion acts on the rocks of different hardness day and night, forming a special and varied landscape, with shapes like honeycomb, mushroom, tofu, etc. Standing on the rock and looking down at the repeated impact of the waves, the roaring sound of the waves breaking at the same time is shocking and unforgettable. 💞Recommended reason: sea erosion topography, sea view 🕰️Opening hours: 24 hours 📍Address: No. 500, Section 1, Songjiang Road, Taitung City, Taitung County

Taitung Fugang Geopark (Little Yeliu) is located in the midst of nature's masterpiece, showcasing the charm of various strange rocks.

It is strongly recommended that you come here for a walk, feel the masterpiece of nature, and leave beautiful moments.

Little Yeliu is located in the sea area north of Fugang Pier, where various strange-shaped rocks are scattered along the coast, similar to Yeliu in northern Taiwan, hence the name 'Little Yeliu'.

The wardrobe here has a door that can be closed, unlike some hotels that have an open wardrobe. And there is lighting inside, so even if the three of us put our clothes in there, we can easily find whose clothes they are. The full-length mirror on the right allows you to dress up nicely and look great when going out. Below is a disposable slipper The refrigerator is not big, but it is no problem to simply cool some drinks It was already cold when I opened it. The TV is not big, but the picture quality is OK.

In addition to the two sofa chairs, there is also a space by the window that is very suitable for reading or using a laptop. There is also a socket next to it. The design from lighting to table height is great. Monster likes this space very much.

There are four windows at the hotel service desk. Check-in is actually quite fast. The hotel lobby is spacious. Even if there are many people queuing, it doesn't feel crowded.

Speaking of Liu, we will have a soft feeling, but in Xiaoye Liu, um... does not exist. The small wild willows are weathered and sea-eroded, forming a variety of strange rock formations. Because of the wild willows in northern Taiwan, they are called "small wild willows". The waves slammed on the rocks, but they were wild. The coast here has been subjected to ancient weathering and sea erosion, forming a variety of rock formations such as monoclinic ridges, tofu rocks, and scorpion stones. Because the scenery resembles Taipei wild willows on the north coast, it is called Xiaoyeliu.
