Keelung Harbour
The Treaties of Tianjin of 1860 specified Tamsui as an open port. The Port of Keelung opened the following year. In the Japanese colonial period, the Governor-General of Taiwan started the development of Keelung Harbor. By the early and middle 20th century, it was the largest port in Taiwan at the time.

Yehliu Park
Yehliu is a cape on the north coast of Taiwan in the town of Wanli between Taipei and Keelung. A distinctive feature of the cape is the hoodoo stones that dot its surface. These shapes can be viewed at the Yeliu Park. A number of rock formations have been given imaginative names based on their shapes. The most well-known is the "The Queen's Head."
