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.
Hujing Island Introduction:
Hujing Island is one of the smaller islands in the Penghu archipelago, located southwest of the main island. It is the seventh-largest island in Penghu, featuring spectacular columnar basalt formations. Due to its proximity to Magong and its strategic location along an excellent maritime route, it was historically a battleground where government troops fought against foreign invaders and pirates. It was also once the most productive fishing ground. However, with the depletion of resources, residents have relocated, leading to the decline of local industries. Today, Hujing Island hosts only one legal homestay, one restaurant, and one elementary school.
The island, rich in history and mystery, was once celebrated as one of the eight scenic spots of Penghu, known as “Hujing Shenyan” (Hujing’s Sunken Abyss). There is a legend of a mysterious sunken city beneath the sea near the island, adding to its allure. Some refer to it as the “Lost Atlantis.” Additionally, Hujing Island was rumored to house a Japanese southern advance command post.
In recent years, due to the numerous adorable cats living on the island, it has also been affectionately called “Cat Island.” The legend of a collapsed city wall hidden at the bottom of the Hujing waters enhances its mystique, making it a fascinating destination for visitors.
Tongpan Island Introduction:
Tongpan Island is a classic example of a basalt mesa landscape, surrounded by well-developed and orderly arranged columnar joints. Its beautiful stone scenery has earned it the nickname “Yellowstone Park of Penghu.” Visitors can enjoy a leisurely stroll along the island’s cement path. On the southwest coast, the sea erosion platform features concentric circular holes formed by basalt lava, known as the “Lotus Platform,” which is a volcanic crater relic. The honeycomb-shaped basalt, commonly known as “Cat Rock,” adds to the scenic beauty of the coast. Near the pier is the grand Fuhai Temple, dedicated to Lord Wenfu, one of the most popular temples in Penghu’s outlying islands. Additionally, the nearby underwater area is home to extensive and magnificent plate-shaped coral reefs, making it a diver’s paradise.
