Tiantai Mountain

Penghu Attractions

天台山

Tiantai Mountain, standing at an elevation of 53 meters, is the highest peak of Wang'an Island. Nearby is a famous coral stone production area in Penghu. The grassland surrounding the mountain is flat, often with cattle and sheep grazing, creating a naturally beautiful landscape. Tiantai Mountain has become the best viewpoint for overlooking Wang'an Island and the nearby Huayu Islet. The rock layers of Tiantai Mountain are primarily composed of microgabbro, which has a layered joint structure. At the western sea cliff, there are spectacular basalt formations, and following the trail down to the western coast, one can discover a 30-meter high sea cave, a stunning geological feature. The beauty of the joints in microgabbro differs from the columnar basalt formations found in Hujing and Tongpan Islands, as the interlacing joints of Tiantai Mountain create beautiful "stone flowers."
