Siwei Village Introduction
Nangan Traditional Settlement, Siwei Coastal Scenery Continuing further north from Matsu Village, you arrive at the westernmost tip of Nangan Island, known as "Xiwai." It is a rare well-preserved village in Nangan. The office of Lin Yi He, a legendary figure from Matsu, still remains. In the past, troops were stationed here, and they built a power plant and rice mill in the village, which contributed to the prosperity of Siwei Village. However, it gradually declined, and today only a few households reside here. Many areas remain unrestored, preserving more of their original appearance. Siwei Village has a simple charm, sitting against Qiu Gui Mountain and facing the coast, complemented by the fishing sails dotting the seascape, creating a captivating view. At sunset, it is especially stunning, earning the name "Xiwai Sunset." The Matsu Fisheries Experiment Station, originally located at the entrance of Furong Ao in Siwei Village, was the base for Matsu's aquaculture development and is most famous for its mussels. The breeding methods developed at the station, combined with the unique natural conditions, made mussels an indispensable delicacy on Matsu's dining tables. You must try this fresh taste when visiting Matsu. In 2018, the Fisheries Experiment Station was transformed into the Blue Tears Ecology Pavilion, which also undertakes the cultivation of blue tears. Blue Tears Ecology Pavilion Address: 24 Siwei Village, Nangan Township, Lienchiang County Opening Hours: 10:00-12:00, 13:30-17:40, 18:40-21:00 Madam Café Recreating the Romance of Traditional Stone Houses Located in the village, Madam Café is a nearly 80-year-old traditional stone house, now transformed into a guest house and café.
