Introduction

In Wanli District, New Taipei City, Dong-Ao Fishing Harbor is in the bay at the eastern end of Yehliu Peninsula. Built-in 1973, by 1979, the harbor only had 0.24 hectares of roadstead and was only a few hundred meters away from Yehliu Fishing Harbor. There are protruding capes and reefs extending into the sea in the east. It is a small fishing port, and most residents make a living by fishing. The fishing grounds are in the sea east of Yehliu Peninsula. Because it is adjacent to the Northern Coastal Highway, the transportation is very convenient, attracting many tourists to come here on holidays to enjoy the coastal scenery and eat seafood.

Yunsen Waterfall

Yunsen Waterfall is actually a portmanteau of the “Yunxin” (Cloud Heart) and “Shenshan” (Forest Mountain) waterfalls. The “Sisters Waterfall” is also included by some people to make up the “Three Falls of Yunsen.” All three waterfalls are located on the upper reaches of the Zhongkeng River. The Zhongkeng River is a tributary of Dabao River. The Dabao River flows into Sanxia River, which in turn joins the Dahan River before becoming Tamsui River. The waterfalls have a plentiful supply of water that cascades from the top of the rocks to form two curtains. The forest greenery makes the waterfall look even more delightful. Visitors can make their way to the bottom of the falls then look up for an even more awe-inspiring view.
