Nanfang'ao Viewing Platform Introduction

The majestic bird's-eye view of Nan'ao Fishing Port has always been a must-capture landscape for many photography enthusiasts. The Nan'ao Viewing Platform, built on a cliff, has become the best spot for photography. Standing on the wooden viewing deck, you can enjoy an expansive view of the endless Pacific Ocean, the continuous Biyun Mountain, the unique Tofu Cape, and the classic beauty of fishing vessels docked at the port. On clear days, you can even glimpse the distant Guishan Island! The Nan'ao Viewing Platform, rebuilt and expanded from the original parking lot, is located at the 108-kilometer mark of the Suhua Highway, with an elevation of about 140 meters. This height is sufficient to overlook the Shuang'ao Fishing Port beneath the blue sky and ocean. The spacious open-air platform has no obstructions, providing great viewing angles from every position. When visiting, be sure to grab your phone or camera to capture the stunning scenery of Nan'ao. Throughout the day, the viewing platform offers a variety of enchanting views: the morning colors of sunrise gently usher in a day at the small port of Nan'ao; the afternoon sun shines brightly, making the fishing port appear even more vibrant; as the sun sets and night falls, the red clouds transform into the twinkling lights of fishing fires and streetlamps, ushering the Nan'ao fishing village into a tranquil nighttime atmosphere. If you want to fully appreciate the beauty of the harbor and the stunning landscape where mountains meet the sea, both Nan'an Elementary School and the Nan'ao Viewing Platform are highly recommended. From high above, you can take in the beauty of the mountains and waters, clearing your mind and spirit!
