The Forestry Bureau of the Council of Agriculture of the Executive Yuan initially planned the "Kaohsiung Yanchaoyue World Mudstone Badlands Geopark" and "Taitung Liji Mudstone Badlands Geopark" demonstration areas in 2010. At the 2011 National Landscape Conservation Seminar, The "Taiwan Geopark Network" was officially established under the witness of the then Deputy Director of the Forestry Bureau, Li Taosheng, and the Deputy Director of the Tourism Bureau, Xie Weijun. During the meeting, a total of six geoparks were promoted, including Penghu Marine Geopark, Northern Coast Geopark (including Yeliu, Bitoujiao-Longdong Geopark, etc.), Caoling Geopark, Yanchao Mudstone Badlands Geopark, Liji Mudstone Badland Geopark and Matsu Geopark. The 2011 International Landscape Conservation Conference was held in Taipei, Taiwan, on October 4-5. Representatives participating in the conference unanimously adopted the following consensus and signed the 2011 Taipei Declaration on Landscape Conservation. The declaration is as follows:
Landscape conservation should be listed as an important national issue, because landscape conservation is not only guided by homeland security and environmental soundness, but also takes Taiwan's responsibility for the global environment as a top priority. The legitimacy of landscape conservation is based on its comprehensive care for Taiwan's natural and cultural environments.

In order to benefit future generations, maintaining sustainable landscape conservation requires a strategic approach. Important strategies include: building a network of scientifically significant landscapes; developing a network of attractions of regional importance; developing technology that is conducive to landscape conservation ; Improve methods of landscape registration and registration tools; Enhance public awareness of landscape conservation and understand the dynamic global environment; Participate in international landscape networks and strengthen their functions to benefit landscape conservation.

The practice of landscape conservation can adopt various perspectives and methods, and we should face up to the issues of its steps and procedures. The geopark concept can be used as a practical basis because geoparks not only emphasize the natural landscape environment, but also attach importance to revitalizing the economy to maintain local social and cultural heritage.

The geopark concept emphasizes the relationship between natural landscapes and the geographical environment where humans live, and the two are mutually reinforcing. By understanding the particularity and uniqueness of local landscapes nationally or globally, local areas can develop unique landscape economies, thereby maintaining local society and culture.

Taiwan under globalization has a special economic, social and environmental background. Landscape conservation not only requires national initiatives and local actions, but also requires learning from global experience. Only through multi-faceted learning can sustainable landscape conservation be ensured.

Landscape conservation and network development in Taiwan require legal and administrative support. Only through balanced conservation of natural and cultural landscapes, supported by environmental regulations and administrative resources, can we create an environmentally and socioeconomically sustainable Taiwan.

Residents' investment in landscape conservation is an engine of local power, which is beneficial to the local special natural and cultural environment. Through effective communication and integration of various stakeholders, planning for the social, cultural and economic development of the community can form a consensus and benefit future generations.

Through the observation and learning of scenic spots and landscape networks, local communities can discover the niche of local landscapes. Landscape conservation can further promote the management and management of landscape diversity and avoid disasters caused by inappropriate development and utilization of landscapes.

Promoting local education and training on landscape conservation can deepen landscape conservation. Locally rooted education and training provide a platform for exchange and learning on landscape conservation work, share valuable experiences learned, and ensure successful landscape conservation.

It is urgent to participate in international landscape conservation work and continue to promote Taiwan's landscape conservation. This will enable Taiwan to maintain its pioneering landscape conservation concepts and practices, and is also a milestone in Taiwan's contribution to the global environment.
Penghu Marine Geopark is famous for its basalt landscape and marine ecology, Caoling Geopark is mainly for landslide disaster landscapes, Kaohsiung Mudstone Badlands Geopark is valued for its mud volcanoes and badland landscapes, Liji Badlands Geopark is famous for its mudstone The Badland Landscape is featured, the Northern Coast Geopark is proud of its eroded coast and strange rock landscapes, and the granite and cultural landscapes of Matsu Geopark are marine ecological gardens. These landscapes are not only rare and special, but also of great importance for environmental research and scientific education. The local ecological and human resources provide the basis for understanding the local cultural ecology, creating a geopark where humanities and the natural environment complement each other. As of December 31, 2022, Taiwan has a total of 13 geopark network members. They are Penghu Marine Geopark, North Coast Yehliu Geopark, North Coast Bitoulong Cave Geopark, Caoling Geopark, Kaohsiung Mudstone Badlands Geopark, Taitung Liji Badlands Geopark, Matsu Geopark, and Yunjia Nan Coast Geopark. , East Coast Fugang Geopark, Taoyuan Caoluo Sand Dunes Geopark, Heping Island Geopark, Jiufen Jinguashi Shuinan Cave Geopark, and Biexi Geopark.
