This palace-like gate is worth a visit when you are in Hengshun. Located in the middle of a roundabout.

Hou Dong Shan Gong Yuan
This is either coral or volcanic rock.
Nice for a stroll around the centre.
出火特別景觀區
An interesting sight where natural gas escapes from under the earth through porous rock. It is alighted and constantly burns. You can even alight smaller spots by yourself with a lighter – there are about 6-7 of them where gas emerges. Best time to come here is during sunset when the place dives into the night and allows for great pictures, given you have the right photo equipment.
樂活南灣遊憩區
Decent and beautiful beach to take a dip.
後壁湖
A mildly picturesque and small harbour. Just nearby, also a coral and power exhibition can be found – quite obvious with the nuclear plant right to the east.
Baisha / 墾丁白沙灣海灘
Remote and beautiful beach.
