Must-Visit Attractions
Wang’an Island:
1. Tiantai Mountain: Also known as “Honeymoon Island,” it stands 53 meters above sea level. The west side features a natural bay, and from the summit, you can enjoy breathtaking views. The mountain has a natural pasture and is the island’s top attraction. Legend says that the “Immortal Footprint” on the mountain was left by Lü Dongbin during his visit.
2. Zhongshe Ancient Residences: Originally called Huazhai, these well-preserved traditional Penghu collective residences were renamed Zhongshe Village after the war. The architecture features a Sanheyuan layout (a three-section compound), offering a unique glimpse into traditional settlement architecture.
3. Huazhai Longquan Ganlu Well: Located in the square in front of Shengmu Temple, visitors can draw cool spring water from this well. The fresh water comes from underground sources on the hillside, while seawater flows in a nearby ditch, separated by just a narrow line—a truly astonishing sight.
4. Huazhai Wanghaixiang:”Wanghaixiang” is situated between two traditional houses built with coral stones. Walking through the quiet, narrow alley between the weathered walls and dense foliage brings a nostalgic, vintage atmosphere. At the end of the alley, you’ll be greeted by the vast ocean, which gives this spot its name.
Must-Visit Attractions
Qimei Island:
Twin-Heart Stone Weir:The “Twin-Heart Stone Weir” is a popular site constructed by local villagers using basalt stones. Its shape, resembling two interconnected hearts, attracts many couples who come here to pledge their eternal love, creating a romantic atmosphere.
Little Taiwan: This is a marine erosion platform located on the inner side of Niumping Bay on Qimei Island. It is called “Little Taiwan” because its shape resembles that of Taiwan Island. This geological wonder was formed by years of sea erosion and only emerges during low tide. Visitors are advised to check the daily tide schedule (it is recommended to visit during low tide to witness the moment when the “water recedes and the rocks emerge”).
Great Lion and Dragon Well:On this basalt coastline, looking to the left and right, one can see a lion and a dragon guarding the area. The “Great Lion” is a rock protruding from the sea cliff, shaped by marine erosion to resemble the head, neck, and even the body of a lion, standing guard over the ocean. On the left, the rock veins extend into the sea like a coiled dragon, hence the name “Dragon Well.” Some say it resembles an eagle’s head, with the viewing platform representing its wings. What animal does it resemble to you? Come and see for yourself.
