In addition to the Queen’s Head, other notable formations include the Sea Candles, Fairy Shoe, Ginger Rocks, Elephant Rock, Ice Cream Rock, Kissing Rock, and Princess’ Head.

The museum occupies several buildings and sites that were once part of the Taiwan Metal Mining Corp, including the Gold Building, which showcases local gold mining history.
- Jiufen Old Street - Jiufen is a hillside village on Taiwan’s northeast coastline. The village flourished in the 1940s due to the gold mining industry but later fell into disrepair. Despite its golden age being long gone, this small village still has many stories to tell.
