►National Museum of Marine Biology and Aquarium

The National Museum of Marine Biology and Aquarium is situated near the sea, close to the Kenting National Park in Pingtung. Taiwan is an island surrounded by water. It is rich in water resources and developed a diversity of distinctive cultures. The museum is dedicated in preserving such gift. The aim of establishing such museum, apart from biological education, commerce, culture, and recreation, is the respect for the environment. If it weren't for the appropriate care for Mother Nature, we wouldn't be able to experience her blessings amongst the natural abundance.
 

 

 

(Lunch suggested by the guide)

 

• Visit Longpan National Park

 

LongPan Park is located aside Jia-E highway on Hengchun Peninsula which is a coral limestone tableland close to Pacific Ocean. Since limestone has been washed by sea water over a long period of time, it has formed an adequate geology including cliff, penetration holes, notches, limestone caves and red soil and that is the most beautiful local coastline. 　Standing on the coast, you will see the cliff in tens of meters height different in front of your eyes. It is the grand landscape that nature carves. Since limestone is rock with several fracture surfaces, when sea water keeps eroding along joints, limestone is cut into several rock fragments in different sizes. After dragged by gravity from waves flapping, large rocks gradually collapsed and cliff has been formed.
