Penghu Aquarium Introduction
The two-story building of the Penghu Aquarium, constructed with grayish-white walls and greenish-blue tiles, is located in Qitou Village, Baisha Township, Penghu. It was expanded from the original Fisheries Experimental Station. The aquarium features several exhibition areas such as coastal ecology, rocky pools, and oceanic ecological exhibits, with the most notable being the 14-meter-long arched underwater tunnel, where visitors can walk through and admire various marine life. Directly opposite the entrance of the aquarium is a straight wave breakwater extending into the Taiwan Strait, originally built as a farming site by a Japanese pearl farming company. Its unique wave-shaped structure attracts many tourists for photos. However, if you want to take pictures in the blue seawater, remember to check the tide schedule and choose the right time during high tide, or else you will only find a wet muddy flat underfoot! On the east side of the aquarium, there is a waterfront park designed utilizing tidal changes, featuring a tidal flat walking area, a circular wading pool, and children's play facilities, allowing both adults and children to observe intertidal creatures and learn about tidal effects, making it an educational and fun recreational area.
