Nature’s wonders never cease, and Taiwan in particular is home to many stunning landscapes. The Bible recounts how the prophet Moses parted the Red Sea, hailed as one of the most magnificent miracles. Yet, you can witness such a sight in Taiwan. In Penghu’s Kuibi Mountain Geological Park, which includes Kuibi Mountain and Chi Islet, a long S-shaped gravel path emerges from the receding tide, connecting the two landmasses. This is a typical tombolo landform, allowing visitors to walk to Chi Islet during low tide.
