🌊The Forgotten Basalt Secrets｜Penghu·Dongji Island One-Day Tour Popular Guide

This remote island in the South China Sea is one of the four southern islands in Penghu that are only inhabited by people. It retains the most primitive reefs, terraces, grasslands and historical relics, as if time has slowed down here. I was lucky to see the colorful clouds on the island🌈🙏🏻 Good luck to everyone 🧭 Highlights of the island 🔹 Bagua Mountain Basalt "Eye of Dongji" It takes about 10 minutes to walk from the tourist service center to Bagua Mountain, where you can see Dongji Pier, Dongji Lighthouse and the vast sea. The round stone that looks like a "single eye" and "basalt eye" is one of the must-take scenic spots. 🔹 Dongji Lighthouse Built in 1911, the existing tower is 24.4 meters high and has a black and white horizontal stripe design. It is the most eye-catching landmark on the island. It not only has a navigation function, but is also one of the "Ten Historical Buildings in Penghu" Standing next to the lighthouse, facing the boundless sea, it seems that you can hear the sound of the passing ships in and out. 🔹Surprise: Basalt columnar cliffs, Daping intertidal zone Dongji is surrounded by cliffs. At low tide, you can see tide crabs, small fish and coral reefs in the "Daping" intertidal zone. You can overlook the strange rock formations from a high place. 🔹Japanese Army Site & Ancient Style Houses The island is dotted with barracks, ancient roads and houses left by the Japanese garrison in the 1930s. It feels like traveling back in time, with sheep, basalt and sea breeze 🎒Pre-trip & Photo Tips 🔆Sunscreen is essential, the summer sun is strong; low tide is more suitable for walking on the intertidal zone 👟It is recommended to wear non-slip shoes, basalt and intertidal zone are wet and slippery 📸Photography recommendation: Basalt + sea view at Bagua Mountain Observation Deck, close-up of the "eye" on Bagua Mountain, lighthouse and grassland sheep silhouettes are super impressive 🐑Meeting shepherds on the island, the fusion of nature and humanity is the most touching ✨Why recommend Dongji Island? There are no large tourist facilities here, and the crowds are sparse. You can walk slowly and feel the basalt landforms, the explosive sea view and the century-old history; look for corals, shells, shrimps and crabs in the intertidal zone, or just walk side by side with the sheep. Dongji is an island that "slows down travel", suitable for experiencing the most primitive Penghu without rushing or being impatient. #Penghu Tourism #Dongji Island #Four Southern Islands #Penghu Secret Land #Basalt Landscape #Dongji Lighthouse #Penghu Grassland #Intertidal Zone Ecology #Penghu Island Hopping #Eye of Dongji #Penghu Photo Spot #Japanese Army Site #Penghu Free Travel #Minor Islands #Penghu Itinerary #Penghu Natural Landscape #Taiwan Islands #Intertidal Zone Adventure #Penghu Travel Guide #Penghu Day Tour
