Old Lanyu Lighthouse Introduction
The Old Lanyu Lighthouse is located by Kaiyuan Harbor, and visitors can quickly spot it by looking around after disembarking. Standing on a small hill by the harbor, it looks like a landscaped garden from a distance. Visitors can ascend along the recently renovated trail, and in less than two minutes, they can reach the lighthouse. Although this small hill isn't very high, it offers a panoramic view of Kaiyuan Harbor and the azure waters of Lanyu from the top. After the new lighthouse was built, the old lighthouse was actually abandoned for quite some time, with the trail unmaintained and no guardrails around the lighthouse. However, as more and more tourists discovered the beauty of this spot, it gradually became a popular photo-taking location, leading to the installation of new guardrails and a fresh coat of paint for the lighthouse. Whether just arriving or preparing to leave Lanyu, it's a great place for visitors to take a memorable record. While it may not be very noticeable from ground level, the water inside Kaiyuan Harbor is as clear as anywhere else on Lanyu. Just a few steps up to a higher place provide a clear view, even revealing the rocks at the bottom of the harbor, where children often play and swim. More travel tips for Lanyu.
