Beimen Island Christian Church Introduction
In the early years of the southwestern coastal region of Taiwan, residents commonly drank arsenic-containing groundwater, leading to the prevalence of blackfoot disease, which caused significant physical and mental suffering for many patients. During this period, the establishment of the Beimen Christian Church provided spiritual solace for these patients, who collaborated with Dr. Wang Jinhé to dedicate themselves to the physical and psychological care of the afflicted. The building located behind the church is known as the "Beimen Little White House," which witnessed this significant historical period and boasts a clean and elegant appearance, recently becoming a popular spot for tourists to visit and take photos. Nearby, the Yonglong Canal served as the main shipping route for salt during the Japanese colonial period, once a bustling ferry terminal, it is now an economic artery for local fishermen. Visitors can stand on the bridge to admire the beautiful scenery of the water villages and feel the past splendor of Beimen.
