Part 4 - Visiting Yehliu and the journey @ northern west link road


I have been to Yehliu Geopark many years back. For me, this place did not get much of my attentions, only a few funny sharp rocks, especially the queen head rock, what so big deal about it!? LOL …

However, this round, I don't know what had happen to me, I suddenly see the beauty of this place. Looking at all kind of sharp and sizes of rocks, they are so beautiful. It looked like art galleries that display the wonder of God's creation. The geopark is very beautiful and even the rough wave hitting on the rock seen to be so magnificent.






After Yehliu, we decided to take the northern west link road from Yehliu drive all the way to the west coach to Dhangsui.

On the way, we stopped at Gingshan, Mark leaded us to a Chinese temple and there was a restaurant operating in front of the temple. They are famous with duck dishes, according to Mark. This place was very much different from other restaurant. There were no waiters to serve us. We found big table on own owned; then we were asked to send a few macho guys to carry back the food on our own.





No one will take order from us. We queue up at the counter, and saw few plates of food cooked in advance, we can take any dishes that we like on the table. If we want some more food, we need to wait. Some of the popular dishes being taken away quickly by other customers, so we need to act fast too …  



So, few of us worked together, I went and queue up for the ducks. I took half portion of ducks and the rest, took some other foods. 



According to Mark, this place is well known to the locals and usually crowded on the weekend. Luckily, it was a Wednesday, the crowded wasn't too bad. But we saw full house in the restaurant.

After lunch, we walked around the nearby street market in front at the temple. There are many stores selling famous pineapple cookies and cakes, they offered many varieties, some made by walnut, red bean and many more. I even saw pork cookies …  




The best part is that they allowed us to taste … But, after trying a few pieces, we all "kenal" poison and tempted to buy. We all started buy buy buy until we worried that we may overload our luggage …. hahahaha 
 
We continue our journey and enjoy the coaster road. The only thing that affect us is the Han Liew, chilled-wing blowing from the northern region which made us feel so so so so cold ….. I believe it hits less than 10 degrees Celsius when we reached Dhangsui.
