Guanyin Pavilion Leisure Park Introduction

Guanyin Pavilion Recreation Area is a multifunctional coastal leisure area that combines history and modernity. In addition to the historically significant Guanyin Pavilion, the area features newly built public recreation facilities such as a water-friendly recreation zone, an international sailing competition center, a children's playground, a cycling fitness track, a basketball court, a skating rink, and a pet park, becoming a leisure place for residents of Magong to relax, exercise, and enjoy the sea views. The Guanyin Pavilion, located next to the Youth Activity Center, was established in the 35th year of the Kangxi era of the Qing Dynasty and is dedicated to the Bodhisattva Guanyin. It was destroyed by the French military during the Qing-French War and has been restored multiple times, now designated as a county-preserved historical site. Nearby, the Wangchao Pavilion, Jieshou Pavilion, Dolphin Pavilion, and Huai'en Pavilion are collectively known as the "Four Pavilions by the Sea." Visitors can enjoy the tidal scenery of the Taiwan Strait from the Wangchao Pavilion and watch the sunset over Xiyu from the Jieshou Pavilion. The Dolphin Pavilion, located within the Guanyin Pavilion Recreation Area, is also a prominent landmark, featuring a pair of dolphins swimming towards each other, symbolizing the dolphins that roam the shores of Penghu. The Huai'en Pavilion commemorates the late President Chiang Kai-shek and is worth a personal visit. Opposite the Guanyin Pavilion, the eye-catching "Xiying Rainbow Bridge," a steel arch bridge, is known for its colorful lights at night, reflecting on the sea and adding a romantic atmosphere. The Xiying Rainbow Bridge is also a recent location for the Penghu Fireworks Festival, where visitors can come on fireworks display nights to sit by the shore near the Guanyin Pavilion or Dolphin Pavilion and enjoy the stunning night view of the rainbow bridge coupled with fireworks.
