开阔的海景,让人心情放松。环境也蛮整洁的,海边自然的礁石也令人感动。夕阳的余晖与新建的和平岛大桥,相当壮观。和平岛周遭的海鲜店价格也蛮合理的。
已经收费在管理上与环境品质需再多用心,早期未收费自然景观似乎比较优,如今收费后品质又未精进,因此让游兴大减未曾再造访,外国友人到访也不曾再安排入行程
Very beautiful and tranquil and worth the walk to see. it is very traditional Taiwanese garden full of flowers, water falls and temples.
The views of the eroded coastline of Taiwan are excellent, and the walk is paved, pleasant, and not very busy (it's a ways out of the main scrum of Keelung). Partly because it's not busy, if you happen to be an American and you walk into the pavilion for lunch, you'll receive persistent if friendly attentions from all the merchants there, trying to sell you seaweed chips, fish candy, and other uniquely Taiwanese nibbles (the seaweed chips are good, the fish candy is sorta weird, and avoid the make-your-own seaweed beverage!).
很值得去的地方,避开旅行团的纷扰。海蚀地貌与野柳类似,可以玩得更从容。步道走得也很舒服。公园的交通尚可,下了公交要走一段直路,不过不远。
Came here right after Yeh Liu Geopark.Simply take a bus to Keelung, and from Keelung there is a bus that goes all the way into Peace Island (He Ping Dao).Just check google maps, it's very straightforward.To get back to Keelung, take the same bus from the bus stop you alighted, it's a loop service.This attraction is at the Northern Tip of the island.Students with ISIC card get a discount for admission (NTD 40).There's a beachfront swimming pool here as well.Few tourists, here is where the locals hang out :DIf you stay for sunset, you'll be rewarded with a beautiful sight as the sun sets behind the mountains near Yeh Liu Geopark.
尽管不自己开车来的话,到此地旅游仍有点不方便,但幸好交通上不便,以及道入口处巷弄较狭小的关系,来这里看地质风景,几乎不会遇到游览车游客团的喧嚣,是个适合三五私密好友一起来造访的地方。充满变化的地质景观衬著海天一色的美景,再看着解说牌介绍的荷兰、西班牙、琉球人、平埔族和汉人在此留过的足迹故事,以及和平岛名的由来,也仿佛走过这座岛近400年来的时光。
公园的入口处让人联想到废弃的工程,荒凉的模样差点打了退堂鼓,过桥后的景致,有如残破的旧屋舍里富丽堂皇的宫殿,在岩石风化海水侵蚀下,形成了豆腐岩、万人堆、鳄鱼头..等奇石异景,与先前去过的地质公园有不同的景致。
I wish I had visited in the summer but I still enjoyed this place very much. It is alternately known as Ho-Ping Park, Heping Park and Peace Island…pick one, but get the instructions to the place in Chinese to get back on track should you get lost.I was on a cruise ship so I opted for a taxi rather than a bus to get me there just in case it wasn't easy getting back on schedule.It was only 7 kms from the ship and would cost $7 USD each way by taxi plus a few bucks for the entrance fee and snacks.The taxi dispatcher at the cruise terminal kept pointing to a different destination (Yehliu) on his picture chart of tourist spots saying that it would be better. I was firm and insisted that this place was where we wanted to visit. He let us know that there would be no one there (exactly!) and that we would have to pay a standing fee for the cab to wait one hour. No worries. If I had been alone, I might have simply taken the local bus back but we agreed to pay $900 Taiwan Dollar ($30 USD) roundtrip.Arriving at the park, it looked just like it had on Google street view. Not a tour bus in sight! We paid the entrance fee and received a bunch of coins as change.There was a hill with what looked to be manicured trees on it because it was so neat and tidy and symmetrical. The wind at this place is strong. It is responsible for all of the interesting land formations and probably is the gardener that created the bonsai on the hill.It was only about eleven degrees Celsius so we bundled up in scarves and sweaters and raincoats then made our way along a stone path towards the sea. Tables and hibachis were provided for picnickers.We passed a little family made up of Grand-dad, young mother and rosy-cheeked 9 month old baby in a bunting sling tied against mum.I gestured and spoke in English that they were a beautiful family. The daughter answered us in English asking where we were from and how we had discovered this place. I answered "internet" and she seemed surprised!The Taiwanese people are so friendly and helpful. We heard from many fellow passengers that if they seemed lost or confused, someone would offer assistance without prompting.We approached the rocky beach where waves crashed high into the air like a geyser. I got some video of it. We viewed the rocks shaped into tiny mushrooms by the force of erosion and read about the graffiti cave where ancient Dutch mariners had left their mark. At this time of year, we were not allowed to walk to the cave or among the mushroom rocks but I got some pictures.It was gorgeous and like I had mentioned previously...completely devoid of tourist crowds. It was quiet except for the constant howling wind and extremely clean.Time to hit the sandy beach and see the water up close! The park set up a sea wall to enclose a natural sea-water pool. In this way the waves bash around 50m outside the swimming area so the bathers are protected from being swept out to sea. Fish can and do enter the pool though.I had come prepared with my one piece swimsuit, snorkel, aqua socks, travel towel and wetsuit liner but man...it was windy! There were a few local men and women swimming laps in the 20 degree Celsius water in just their bathing suits. I could have been convinced to join them but didn't want to abandon my friend who thought I was crazy. I did get in to my knees just to feel the water but I didn't see any critters.We stopped into the gift shop where we were offered tea and samples of local treats! I bought some dried sesame fish candy, you'll have to see it to believe it and yes, it is good!Again, the shop staff wanted to know how we found them and were amazed to know that their park was on the internet to be discovered by anyone in the world. The tourist bureau promotes other parks more aggressively so they don't see many foreigners here.I used the Taiwanese coins to purchase some vending machine drinks as souvenirs and found the cab back to the ship. It was a very beautiful place but my photo skills are lacking. You need to visit it your self to enjoy such a unique experience!
This place is full of my childhood memories. I love how easy it is to get to mountains or sea in Keelung, plus, this place is spectacular!
