Nan Gan Traditional Settlement, Siwei Coastal Scenery Continuing further north from Matsu Village, you will reach the westernmost end of Nangan Island, known as "Xiwei." It is one of the few well-preserved villages in Nangan. The former office of Lin Yi He, a legendary figure in Matsu, still remains here. At that time, troops were stationed, and facilities such as a power plant and a rice mill were built in the village, which contributed to the prosperity of Siwei Village. Later, it gradually declined, and today only a few households remain. Many areas have not been fully restored, preserving more of their original appearance. Siwei Village features a simple village landscape, leaning against Qiu Gui Mountain and facing the coastline, complemented by fishermen’s sails dotting the sea—a truly enchanting scene. The sunset in the evening is breathtaking and is famously known as "Xiwei Sunset." The Matsu Fisheries Experimental Institute, originally located at Furongao Port in Siwei Village, was the base for the development of aquaculture in Matsu, with green mussels being particularly famous. The aquaculture methods developed by the institute, combined with the unique natural conditions, have made green mussels an indispensable delicacy on Matsu's dining table, and you must try this delicious taste when visiting Matsu. In 2018, the Fisheries Experimental Institute was transformed into the Blue Tears Ecological Hall, which also conducts breeding work for blue tears.

Siwei Village Introduction

Nangan Traditional Settlement - Siwei Coastal Scenery From Matsu Village, head further north to the westernmost end of Nangan Island, known as "Xiwei." This is one of the few well-preserved villages in Nangan. The office of the legendary figure in Matsu history, Lin Yi-he, still remains here. During that time, troops were stationed here, leading to the establishment of a power plant and a rice milling factory in the village, which boosted the prosperity of Siwei Village. However, it has gradually declined, and today only a few households live in the village, with many areas not fully restored, preserving more of its original appearance. The village has a simple charm, nestled against Qiu Gui Mountain and facing the coast, adorned with fishing sails on the sea, creating a truly enchanting view. The sunset here is particularly breathtaking, earning the name "Xiwei Sunset." The Matsu Aquaculture Research Institute, originally located at Furong Ao in Siwei Village, was the base for developing the aquaculture industry in Matsu, famous for its mussels. Through the research institute's developed cultivation methods, combined with unique natural conditions, mussels have become an indispensable delicacy on Matsu's dining tables. Visiting Matsu, one must try this delicious flavor. In 2018, the research institute was transformed into the Blue Tears Ecology Pavilion, which also conducts cultivation work for the blue tears phenomenon.
