Lanyang Museum Introduction
Traveling to Tou Cheng Township, you must pay pilgrimage to the iconic and distinctive site – the Lanyang Museum. The architectural design incorporates the shape and rock formations of the "Danjian Mountain" from the Northeast Coast landscape, changing colors with the shifting seasons and lighting. From a distance, it appears to be standing on the water, with the lake reflecting the museum and the blue sky like a mirror, creating a grand and elegant view, as picturesque as a painting. This place coexists with the earth and merges with nature, with the building itself seamlessly designed to integrate with the surrounding environment. The site also preserves the Wushi Harbor Wetland ruins, becoming a sanctuary for rich aquatic plants. The permanent exhibitions inside combine the architectural features with themes set in layers: the Mountain layer, the Plain layer, the Sea layer, and the Time Corridor, allowing visitors to understand the geography, natural ecology, and cultural history of Lanyang. The exterior, adorned with gray-blue tiles and glass curtain walls, has also become a famous platform in Yilan, perfect for Instagram-worthy photos, with sunlight acting as the most natural spotlight. You won’t be disappointed from any angle! Alternatively, you can visit the observation deck across the street, where on a clear, windless day, you can capture stunning panoramic views of the museum and its vivid reflections. The Northeast Coast boasts not only the purest original geological beauty but also presents a unique charm by blending natural ecology with modern aesthetics. You are welcome to visit and appreciate the beauty of Lanyang here.
