Autumn Osmanthus Pavilion Introduction
The Autumn Guizhai Reservoir is located on the eastern side of Mount Qiugui. It was built following the topography of the valley and is one of the important water supply stations in the western part of the island. Near the reservoir, there are two pavilions: one is built against the mountain, and the other is positioned by the sea, offering beautiful views of the reservoir. This pavilion is called "Qiugui Pavilion." Qiugui Pavilion overlooks Fuao Harbor across the sea, where the beauty of the harbor is right in front of you. As summer arrives, the sea breeze gently blows, making it a perfect spot for visitors to enjoy the scenery and take a break. Continuing along the roadway beside the reservoir into the mountains, after a stretch of winding paths, you can reach the coastal paradise of Nangan—Furen Village. Furen Village—A Hidden Paradise After passing by the Autumn Guizhai Reservoir and arriving at Matsu's "Furen Village," you can walk through the undulating paths within the village and experience the simplicity and lushness of Furen Village. A few households are nestled among the greenery, and from a high vantage point, the sea looks brilliantly blue. The origin of the name comes from a legend that early local men made a living by fishing, leaving mostly women and children in the village. One time, pirates landed to plunder, but the women bravely fought off the pirates, hence the name.
