Taiwan's Tower of Koo and Tower of Pao in Neian Village Introduction
Located in the northwest of Neian Village, near Beigang. It was formerly known as Neiqian. Due to the low-lying terrain, it is surrounded by sloping land on the north, east, and south sides, while the west faces the ocean, creating a breach. About one nautical mile west from Beigang, there are reefs commonly referred to as Hailai Reef, and the nearby land to the north of the reef is colloquially known as "Huanziwei." Between Hailai Reef and Huanziwei, there is a channel that directly flows towards the Neiqian settlement. According to legends from the ancestors, early residents suffered from frequent disasters caused by iron arrows, unable to settle down. Subsequently, they invited a geomancer from Tangshan to inspect the land and were told to quickly build towers and fortifications for safety, which the residents believed without question. During the reign of the Daoguang Emperor in the Qing Dynasty (1843 AD), the prominent family of the settlement, the Lü family, first advocated for this plan. They gathered the strong young men of the settlement to collectively carry stones and construct two towers at "Huozi Bian." Using the towers as a base, they extended walls northward for about 150 meters and southward to the tower, also approximately 150 meters. The main tower stands one meter high, while the secondary tower is four meters tall. The walls stand about two meters high and one meter wide. As of this year (1995 AD), it has a history of 152 years. 【Recommended stay time】 0.5 hours
