The cliff was formed when a fault was formed on the mountain during the Great Chiayi Earthquake. The fault rose even higher when the September 21, 1999 Jiji Earthquake happened.
The cliff is round 600 meters high and shaped like a boat’s prow so it is called Titanic by locals because it reminds them of the scene from the film when Leonardo and Kate stood on the prow with their arms open facing into the wind.
