Yehliu () is a cape in the town of Wanli, New Taipei, Taiwan. The cape, known by geologists as the Yehliu Promontory, forms part of the Daliao Miocene Formation. It stretches approximately 1,700 metres into the ocean and was formed as geological forces pushed Datun Mountain out of the sea.〔http://www.earth.sinica.edu.tw/papers/V1n1p099.pdf〕 A distinctive feature of the cape is the hoodoo stones that dot its surface. These shapes can be viewed at the Yehliu Geopark operated by the North Coast and Guanyinshan National Scenic Area administration. A number of rock formations have been given imaginative names based on their shapes. The best known is 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 "Beehive", the "Ginger Rocks", and the "Sea Candles". ==Features== Image:Yehliu.jpg|Yehliu Cape Image:Taiwan - Yehliu.jpg|Sea Candles (燭台石) File:Taiwan wanli queenshead altonthompson.jpg|The Queen's Head (女王頭) Image:Yehliu IMG 0464.JPG|Ginger Rocks Image:Fairy Sandal.JPG|Fairy Shoe (仙女鞋) Image:Yehliu IMG 0487.JPG|Pedestrian Bridge Image:Yehliu IMG 0518.JPG|Cave Image:Yehliu-coast.jpg|Yehliu Coast Image:Yehliu, northern part.jpg|Northern part of Yehliu Cape Image:Yehliu - Mushroom Rock 01.jpg|Mushroom Rocks Image:Yehliu - Camel Rock.jpg|Camel Rock 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yehliu」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
