Warship Rock Introduction
Due to the island's appearance resembling a warship, it is said that during World War II, when American and Japanese forces were battling near Lanyu, American aircraft mistook warship rock for a naval vessel and bombarded it. The elders of the Dongqing tribe still remember this misfire incident vividly. The island, due to its turbulent currents and hidden waves, has created a rich ecosystem, resulting in a high quantity and diversity of fish species in the surrounding waters, which was traditionally a fishing ground for the Dongqing tribe. With such a unique shape, Warship Rock attracts photography enthusiasts who come to capture the breathtaking scenery, leaving behind a magnificent impression of Warship Rock.
