Liuchiu Management Station and Visitor Center Introduction
Liuchiu Management Station and Visitor Center is located on the hillside next to Baisha Tourist Port, in a three-story building. Due to the slope, the main entrance is on the second floor, where the lobby has a tourist information counter providing real-time travel consultation services. It is equipped with dynamic and static travel guidance facilities and a large conference room that can accommodate 75 people, offering services for holding major meetings and guided tours for groups. The outdoor area includes an entrance plaza, a sea-view platform, and a retail shop. The first floor houses the management station office, which is not open to visitors, but the outdoor viewing platform is available for tourists to rest and enjoy the view of Baisha Tourist Port and the beautiful sea. The third floor is the dormitory area and is also not open for visits. The Liuchiu Management Station and Visitor Center originated from the Liuchiu Township Library, which was built in 1995. In 2000, Liuchiu Township was incorporated into the management scope of Dapeng Bay National Scenic Area. Due to initial difficulties in land acquisition, the township borrowed part of the space from the Liuchiu Township Library to serve as a temporary office for the management station and visitor center. However, to enhance recreational service quality and respond to the annual growth in tourist numbers in the designated area of Liuchiu Scenic Spot, the Dapeng Bay National Scenic Area Administration obtained permission from the township office in 2009 to acquire the land and building of the Liuchiu Township Library for a fee, and planned to renovate it into a permanent Liuchiu Management Station and Visitor Center. After renovation, it officially opened in 2012. The overall appearance features red tiles and white walls, distinctly showcasing island style while incorporating elements of composite architecture, such as a European-style spire roof, column, and corridor design, making the management station's building uniquely different from other structures on Liuchiu Island, and thus becoming a new local attraction.
