Shihmen (Stone Gate) Cave is located at the northern most tip of Taiwan amidst many famous northern coastal scenic spots. It is named after a huge rock by the seashore. After years of sea current erosion, a hole is formed on the rock and as the earth movement pushes the rock further ashore, the entire piece looks like an imposing arch from far. The area offers several attractive tourist spots such as Baisha Beach Resort, Baisha Bay Youth Activity Center, Cape Fuguei Lighthouse, Laumei Park, Shihmen Cave, boating pier, 18 Kings Temple, Jinpaoshan Thousand Buddha Stone Wall, Tioshih Coast and etc. They are all popular tourist spots especially in summer.
