虎寮潭景緻

When visiting Pinglin, in addition to buying tea and enjoying tea meals, you might want to venture into the mountains and walk up the suspension bridge to admire the dog-tooth topography of Huliaotan. The dog-tooth topography is formed by the tilting of sediment layers due to pressure, and the erosion by the Beishi River has caused the fragile shale to collapse, leaving behind jagged sandstone resembling the teeth of a dog. With the construction of the Feitsui Reservoir upstream of the Beishi River, many dog-tooth formations have submerged under water, but approaching Huliaotan and standing on the Huliaotan suspension bridge still allows for a magnificent view of the dog-tooth topography.

Huliao Pond Introduction

When visiting Pinglin, in addition to buying tea leaves and enjoying tea meals, you might as well venture into the mountains and walk on the suspension bridge to admire the dog-tooth topography of Huliao Pond. This dog-tooth topography is formed by layers of strata being compressed and tilted upwards. Under the erosion of the Beishi River, the fragile shale crumbles, leaving behind the jagged sandstone that resembles a dog's teeth. With the construction of the Emerald Reservoir upstream of the Beishi River, many dog-tooth formations have been submerged. However, by approaching Huliao Pond and standing on the Huliao Pond Suspension Bridge, you can still enjoy the magnificent dog-tooth topography.
