Day 6 - Yeh Liu Ecological Park

We boarded a bus from Taipei to Yeh Liu Ecological Park. One of most beautiful wind-made park I have ever seen.
Bus ticket!
I am amazed by their public transport. Yeh Liu is situated at an outskirt and it take close to 2 hour journey.
Yet, there are buses that goes there. And stops at a strange looking place that looks like this.
It looks like a middle of nowhere! It is a small fisherman village.
School kids crossing the road.
PrincessX told me this school teaches basic marine science and everything underwater!
Ladies & Gentlemen, welcome to Yehliu Geopark.
I love all these cute statue they have around the park. Apparently, they are the princesses named after each wind-made statue in Yehliu. Later you will see what I mean.
It is so beautiful and calm over there. Yehliu wins hands down as the most beautiful place I have seen while I was at Taipei.
Cropped top and tank brought from Shih Lin! =D
Yeah, the three of us got the same top. =D
We're here at Yehliu partly is to see the famous Queen's Head II.
And it is not man-made. It is made by winds that blow for many many years.
It looks something like this. This one is a replica of it. The real one is out there waiting for us.
Spot the resemblance? Hehe!
This is an overall picture of Yehliu. All the rock-like statue is made by strong winds. Reminds me of Kudat. Can you spot the Queen's Head?
And the wind here is super strong! Just ignore my messy hair.
Will never ever forget the beauty of this place.
Even PrincessX was mesmerized.
Lush green moss
Ta-Da! We queued up for about 20 minutes just to take a picture of the real Queen's Head II! There is even a guard stood by to keep an eye on the crowd.
Would love to come back here again someday.
Coming to Yehliu also made me realize how much I love the sea
Trying to dump all my so-called artistic picture here! HAHA!
Take me out to the sea!!
Colourful flowers!
I would love to end this entry with a statue which is also wind-made many many years ago...
Presenting you the mini Statue of Liberty here in Yehliu Geopark...
Right after this was taken, the guards blows whistle at us shoo-ing us away! Hehe! =P
Aites! Till the next one!
