Houcuo Fishing Port Introduction
Houchou Fishing Harbor is located along the Danjin Highway and is the only remaining fishing port in the Sanzhi District. Although it is not as crowded as Tamsui Fisherman's Wharf, visitors can experience the authentic atmosphere of a simple fishing village here. The harbor has enhanced its functionality through the city government's "Fishing Gear Warehouse Construction Project." While maintaining traditional fishing practices, the old containers have been removed, and 20 new reinforced concrete fishing gear warehouses have been constructed for fishermen's use. These warehouses feature manual rolling iron doors and translucent glass bricks to bring in natural light. Additionally, the harbor area is equipped with smart shore power and water facilities, as well as a marine waste temporary recycling area, facilitating the recycling of resources and enhancing the overall sustainable use of the harbor. A team of painters has incorporated artistic designs reflecting the youthful landscapes of mountains and seas into the exterior of the warehouses, transforming their appearance from traditional warehouses into functional yet aesthetically pleasing structures, thus enhancing the visual appeal of the harbor and introducing a diverse new image for the fishing port.
