Shanshui Beach Introduction
Shanshui Beach is one of the must-visit beaches in Penghu, stretching over 200 meters. Due to the rich natural resources of Penghu and its low levels of artificial pollution, the sand appears in a beautiful golden color. Surrounding the beach are large areas of lush green vines, creating a vivid color palette with the azure sea, green vegetation, and golden sand under the shining sun, making it a popular tourist destination. Historically, Shanshui Beach had an interesting name called "Zhumu Luoshui" (猪母落水), which translates to "Mother Pig Falls into Water." Legend has it that a mother pig ran onto the beach, and a giant octopus appeared in the sea. After a struggle, the mother pig was dragged into the sea by the octopus, hence the name "Zhumu Luoshui." During the Japanese occupation, it was renamed to "Zhumu Shui" (豬母水), and it was not until the retrocession of Taiwan that it was changed to "Shanshui." At the entrance of the beach, there is a large 3D mural on the seawall that incorporates the story of "Zhumu Luoshui," featuring a real surfboard embedded in the wall, elevating the 3D art to 4D. Visitors can stand on the surfboard and take photos with the 3D mural, making it seem as if they are battling the giant octopus alongside the mother pig, which makes for a memorable photo opportunity. 【Recommended Stay Time】 1 hour
