Huliao Pond

Taipei Attractions

虎寮潭景緻

A visit to Pinglin is not complete without buying tea leaves and enjoying tea meals. You might also want to venture into the mountains, walk onto the suspension bridge, and admire the dogtooth terrain of Huliotang. The dogtooth terrain was formed due to the tilting and uplifting of rock layers. Under the erosion of the Beishi River, the fragile shale disintegrated, leaving behind serrated sandstone resembling dog teeth. With the construction of the Feitsui Reservoir upstream on the Beishi River, many dogtooth formations have been submerged. However, by approaching Huliotang and standing on the Huliotang Suspension Bridge, you can still enjoy a magnificent view of the dogtooth terrain.

Huliao Pond Introduction

When visiting Pinglin, in addition to buying tea and enjoying tea meals, you might as well venture into the mountains and walk up the suspension bridge to admire the dogtooth topography of Huliaotan. The dogtooth topography is formed due to the compressive forces causing the layers to tilt and rise. Under the erosion of the Beishi River, the fragile shale crumbles, leaving behind jagged sandstone resembling dog teeth, hence the name. With the construction of the Feitsui Reservoir upstream in the Beishi River, many dogtooth formations have been submerged. However, by approaching Huliaotan and standing on the Huliaotan Suspension Bridge, you can still enjoy the magnificent view of the dogtooth topography.
