莒光遊客中心

Jiugong Township, formerly known as Bai Ken, derives its name from the Fuzhou dialect where "ken" sounds like "dog", leading to the name Bai Quan (White Dog). The two islands resemble two small dogs lying on the surface of the sea, which is why the eastern island is called Dong Quan Island and the western island is called Xi Quan Island. In 1971, it was renamed Jiugong Township, meaning "Do not forget Jiug". The eastern island is referred to as Dong Ju and the western island as Xi Ju. The Jiugong Visitor Center is located next to the Fuzheng settlement on Dong Ju Island. The visitor center, designed in the style of Eastern Fujian architecture, blends harmoniously with the surrounding lighthouse and stone houses, making it a unique building that resembles a resort. With stunning views of the sea and mountains, resting at the visitor center while reading travel materials becomes a pleasure. Inside the visitor center, visitors can watch introduction videos and obtain travel information, while the nearby Fuzheng Blue Tears Station offers a place for guests to rest and taste local dishes like clams and red yeast rice chicken. If you have the chance to visit Jiugong, don’t miss this stop!

Juguang Tourist Center Introduction

Juguang Township, formerly known as Baikeng, derives its name from the Fuzhou dialect's homophone for "dog," and is also referred to as "White Dog." The two islands’ mountainous shapes resemble two small dogs lying on the sea, hence East Island is known as Dog Island East and West Island as Dog Island West. In 1971, it was renamed Juguang Township, meaning "do not forget the sacrifice at Juguang," and East Juguang and West Juguang were established. The Juguang Visitor Center is located beside the Fuzheng settlement on East Juguang Island. The visitor center's appearance mimics the architecture of Eastern Fujian, seamlessly blending with the surrounding lighthouse and stone houses. It is a distinctive building that exudes a resort-like atmosphere, complete with ocean and mountain views. Relaxing at the visitor center while reading travel information becomes a delightful experience.
