Formerly, the mushroom rocks appears without the neck. Gradually become smaller to form a neck because a part of coral reef had been erosed. For a long time the neck will be disappear because of erosion.That process applies to all forms of stone and some stones have almost entered the phase of the shrinking neck, including the stone that became mascot geopark Queen's. Realizing that, the manager Yehliu have to make copies of the same stone. Then the duplicates of this queen's head is placed in the middle of a beautiful garden at the front of the Geopark Yehliu.
