Yuan Yang Cave,藏軍洞 (Cangjun Cave) Introduction
"Mandarin Duck Play Water - Mandarin Duck Cave" is located in the northeastern part of Wang'an Island. It is a natural valley terrain, named according to a legend that early on, due to numerous water caves, mandarin ducks played and inhabited here. The offshore area is protected by Saddle Mountain, which resembles a saddle, making it an important naval base built by the Japanese military during the Japanese occupation. Among the historic relics of this area is the "Cangjun Cave." In 1944, the Japanese military enslaved the residents of Wang'an and Jiangjun Islands for excavation purposes, establishing it as a base for naval torpedo boats and accommodations for special attack team members. As the construction was nearing completion, Japan announced its unconditional surrender, leading to the abandonment of the base. Many caves have already collapsed, but some ruins can still be seen.
