Pan An-bang Memorial Hall Introduction
The folk singer Pan Anbang, who rose to fame with the song "Grandma's Penghu Bay," is from the "Jinlongtou Village" (Duxing Ten District) preservation area in Magong, Penghu County, Taiwan. Born in 1961 in Duxing Ten District, Pan Anbang grew up in Penghu under the care of his grandmother. After moving to Taipei as an adult and meeting his friend Yeh Chia-hsiu, he found his way into the folk music scene. Reflecting on his nostalgia for his hometown of Penghu and his grandmother, he transformed these feelings into lyrics and music, creating "Grandma's Penghu Bay," which became a popular song at the time. The residence of Pan Anbang is located at No. 5, Lane 1, Xinfuxing, Magong City, and is a Japanese-style detached building constructed of bamboo, lime, yellow mud, and the unique local material "Lagushan" found in Penghu. At the entrance of the alley is the home of the late singer Chang Yu-sheng, and notable actors Hu Jin and Zhao Shun also hail from Duxing Ten District. The Penghu County Government invested in the renovation of Pan Anbang's residence, turning it into a memorial hall to commemorate his life and achievements. The garden features an over 90-year-old olive tree, now listed as a precious old tree numbered "Magong 17," which is also the 53rd precious old tree currently managed in Penghu County. [Recommended stay time] 0.5 hours.
