Wang-an - Mandarin Duck Cave,藏軍洞 (Zangjun Cave) (Zhenyang Boat Base) Introduction

The Mandarin Duck Cave has geographical and historical value, featuring an east-west river valley terrain and serving as a sea fishing spot. Due to the river valley topography, there are several shallow wells nearby. During World War II, it also served as an air-raid shelter for the residents of Wang-an, with multiple caves excavated for this purpose. Over time and due to natural forces, most of these shelters have collapsed. The outer beach of the Mandarin Duck Cave is pure and tranquil, while the offshore Saddle Mountain Island serves as a barrier, located about 600 meters away. The "Cangjun Cave" within the Mandarin Duck Cave is a remnant of historical significance; it was excavated by the Japanese military during World War II to house residents from Wang-an and Jinmen, serving as quarters for torpedo boats and special forces. The construction was completed shortly before Japan's unconditional surrender was announced, rendering the base obsolete, and many of the caves have since collapsed, leaving only ruins. 【Recommended Stay Time】 2 hours
