天台山

At an altitude of 53 meters, Tian Tai Mountain is the highest peak of Wang'an Island. Nearby is a famous stone monument site in Penghu. The flat grasslands surrounding the mountain are occasionally visited by cows and sheep, creating a naturally beautiful scene. Tian Tai Mountain has become the best spot to overlook Wang'an Island and the nearby Hualiu Islet. The rock layers of Tian Tai Mountain are mainly composed of microgranite, characterized by blocky joints. On the western side, the coastal cliffs feature spectacular basalt formations. Following the trails down to the western coast, one can discover a stunning sea cave reaching 30 meters high. The beauty of the microgranite's joint patterns differs from the columnar basalt landscapes of Hu-Jing and Tong-Pan Islands, as the interlaced joints of Tian Tai Mountain create beautiful "stone flowers."
