Huliao Pond

Taipei Attractions

虎寮潭景緻

Visit Pinglin, and besides buying tea and enjoying tea meals, you might want to venture into the mountains, walk on the suspension bridge, and appreciate the dog-tooth topography of Huliotan. The dog-tooth topography is formed by the upward tilting of layers due to tectonic compression. Under the erosion of the Beishi River, the weak shale disintegrates, leaving behind jagged sandstone that resembles dog teeth, hence the name. With the construction of the Feitsui Reservoir upstream on the Beishi River, many dog-tooth formations have been submerged; however, by approaching Huliotan and standing on the Huliotan Suspension Bridge, one can still enjoy the grandeur of the dog-tooth topography.

Huliao Pond Introduction

A visit to Pinglin offers more than just buying tea and enjoying tea meals; you can also venture into the mountains, walk on suspension bridges, and admire the tooth-shaped terrain of Huliotan. The tooth-shaped terrain is formed due to the upward bending of layers caused by compression, and after being eroded by the Beishi River, the fragile shale breaks down, leaving behind jagged sandstone that resembles a dog's teeth. With the construction of the Feitsui Reservoir upstream on the Beishi River, many of the tooth-shaped formations have been submerged, but by approaching Huliotan and standing on the Huliotan suspension bridge, you can still marvel at the grandeur of the tooth-shaped terrain.
