Introduction to one scenic spot

• Keelung Island (also known as Jilong Island, Keelung Island, or Jilongyi)
  Keelung Island, also known as Keelung Yi, was one of the Eight Scenic Spots of Keelung during the Japanese occupation, known as "Yifeng Songcui" (meaning "Soaring Green Peak"). Located only 5 kilometers from Keelung, it is one of the four volcanic islands off the coast of Keelung, along with Mianhua Island, Pengjia Island, and Huaping Island. This small island, 960 meters long, 400 meters wide, and with a maximum elevation of approximately 182 meters, is a prominent landmark off the coast of Keelung. Keelung Island was formed by an underwater volcanic eruption; it is itself a piece of igneous rock formed from lava solidifying upon contact with seawater. The constant erosion by waves and winds has created a unique cliff-like coastal landscape. The island is surrounded by steep cliffs and features numerous sea caves and reefs, earning it the nickname "Volcanic Geopark." The scenery of Keelung Island changes depending on the viewing location from the land. Some say it resembles a whale, while others say it looks like a rhinoceros. Its beauty is further enhanced by the changing climate. On clear days, the volcanic island's imposing presence is visible, while its indistinct shape at dawn and dusk adds to its mysterious and ethereal feel. Due to Keelung's rainy environment and the weathering of its rocks, the vegetation is quite abundant, mostly consisting of banyan trees, along with wild lilies, golden spider lilies, rockwort, privet, palm trees, evergreen pines, and hibiscus. Currently, the Keelung City Government is gradually restoring lilies. The golden spider lilies bloom in May and June, while the golden spider lilies bloom in August and September, attracting many tourists every year during these two seasons.

• There is another lighthouse above Keelung Island, but its correct name should be "Keelung Island" Lighthouse. It was originally added to compensate for the insufficient light range of the Yehliu Lighthouse and the Bitoujiao Lighthouse. Built in 1980, the tower is 12.3 meters high, the light itself is 189.3 meters high (the second tallest in Taiwan), and the light range is 13.8 nautical miles. It features black and white vertical stripes and an octagonal reinforced concrete structure. It was the first lighthouse in Taiwan to use solar power. There is also a monument from the Japanese occupation period, "Private First Class Nantian's Martyrdom Monument," commemorating soldiers who died in the line of duty during construction work. To develop tourism, the Keelung City Government has built a hiking trail, which takes about an hour round trip.
  

• Elephant Trunk Rock, sculpted by the long-term erosion of the northeast monsoon and the pounding of waves, has become a unique landscape in Shen'ao. From the side, it resembles an elephant with its trunk outstretched, standing on a cliff promontory, inspiring awe at the wonders of nature. Elephant Trunk Rock can be reached on foot from the sandstone coast next to Shen'ao Fishing Port. Along the way, numerous mushroom rocks and honeycomb stones are scattered throughout the coastline, showcasing the beauty of strangely shaped rocks. The sea arches, carved over countless years, resemble a long elephant trunk extending into the water, forming a unique and colossal landscape.

• Bisha Fishing Port is a newly developed fishing port in Keelung and a famous tourist fish market. It consists of two long buildings: the "Fish Market" and the "Food Street." The Fish Market has many fresh seafood shops offering a variety of fresh seafood. The Food Street is neatly organized like a temple street food area, where tourists can order food or purchase seafood and have it cooked by the vendors. Bisha Fishing Port is currently being actively developed by the government for maritime tourism, with a future focus on leisure tourism. Visitors can enjoy various freshly caught seafood and take sightseeing yachts to admire the seascape of Keelung.
