We visited places on the main island and the smaller islands of Qimei and Wang'an. Unfortunately an approaching typhoon messed up our original plan of visiting another island, Jibei. We rented scooters which is the best way to get around. The double heart stone weir was indeed beautiful, the whale cave was impressive too. There was less people on the fine sand beach than we expected. Overall a nice trip.

Travel in Taiwan (2015, 9/10)
By Rick Charette
We woke up bright and early this day to catch an early-morning ferry to Qimei, the southernmost South Sea island. Hopping on scooters right at the pier (rental included in ferry-ticket price), we headed out on the very quiet coastal road – more goats than cars. Qimei’s iconic symbol is the Twin Hearts Stone Weir, made of stones piled laboriously, which fills at high tide and leaves fish stranded at low. The Tomb of the Seven Beauties – “Qimei” means “Seven Beauties” – is built around a well down which seven chaste Ming Dynasty maidens are said to have thrown themselves on the approach of nasty-intent Japanese pirates. Among the other must-visit Qimei attractions we checked off our to-do list were the picturesque Little Taiwan and Waiting for Husband Rock, two coastal rock formations viewed from above.
Rather than traveling straight back to Magong, we stopped off at Wang’an for a few hours’ exploration of this island. The highlights of our meander along the sleepy round-island coastal road? Tiantai Hill and the village of Zhongshe. Your walk up Tiantai Hill, the island’s highest point, leads to wonderful panoramic views over Wang’an and its numerous nearby islands. Wonderful Zhongshe is an old narrow-lane fishing village, almost all homes stone/coral-built. Be sure to stop in for the homemade ice-cream at the shop – shade is at a premium in the village – under the huge Penghu-renowned “Wang’an Township Tree,” an Indian almond tree planted by the shop owner’s mother in 1928.
Penghu is home to many long, fine-sand beaches. Four of the most popular are on the island of Penghu’s south side – Lintou, Aimen, Shanshui, and Shili. On the morn of this day we visited each in turn. I especially like Lintou and Shanshui. Lintou and Aimen are connected by a long beach-edge boardwalk; behind Lintou Beach is Lintou Park, a shady, aesthetically laid-out tree park in which you can sit yourself down to alfresco coffee at a bright and breezy café. At Shanshui’s entrance is a bustling cluster of beach-bum-style eateries and cafés, and backing its west side is an attractive protected lagoon area traversed in part by a long boardwalk. This leads to a high promontory that drops into the surf at the beach’s west end. Topped with a large lookout, formerly part of an off-limits military zone, the promontory is dotted with abandoned camouflaged bunkers, pillboxes, and other facilities, one outfitted with heritage photos and information boards (Chinese) on this spot’s military and ecological past.
Near Shili, pretty much at Penghu’s southwest tip, is the compelling, still-being-developed Qingwan Cactus Park. There are two foci. Cacti, yes – the archipelago’s dry, flattish, windswept environment is perfect for cactus growth. And military history – the park site is a former Japanese military base rich in ruins, notably hidden big-gun emplacements, bunker barracks, and command posts.
Exploring Penghu Islands in Taiwan
We Said Go Travel Lonely Planet Taiwan calls the Penghu Islands the Hawaii of Taiwan. Might Penghu be like an old-time Hawaii? And as a place known for its fishing industry, Penghu seems like a destination far from the tourist trail, a place with a major Matsu festival and therefore a tantalizing prospect for exploration. April 2011

Taiwan Tourist Attraction at Penghu Island Day 1 ♥️
Xiyu West Fort or or Xiyu Western Battery (Penghu, Taiwan)
Xiyu West Fort is located at Waian Village, Xiyu Township, Penghu County. It is one of the 4 naval defenses built by Wu Hongluo, commander of Penghu, in 1886, following the Sino-French War. Penghu is part of the sea transportation route between China and Taiwan and was a stopping point for early immigrants to Taiwan. In terms of military strategy, it serves as an outpost for Taiwan's defense and affects the security of China's southeast coast, making it a long-time strategic location for naval defense.
The fort occupies 8.15 hectares and is surrounded by a wall, inside of which is a stone platform bearing four main and supplementary cannons. Beneath the platform is a tunnel-style barracks 3.9 meters wide and 3.3 meters high, forming a triangular shape. It controls Xiyu, Tongpanyu, the inland mouth of Hujingyu, and the west side of the Penghu port, forming a fire net with Jinlongtou Fort. West Fort is slightly square in shape, surrounded by an earthen wall, and has four cannons, 2 circular and 2 semi-circular, facing the sea.
In front of the cannons is a smaller wall with shield-shaped openings to store cannonballs. Ammunition is stored between the cannons and underneath the surface. Behind this is a flat triangular-shaped arched stone fort. The central entrance has 2 arched gateways above which are an inscribed board reading Xiyu West Fort. Viewed from the entrance, the fort appears to protrude from the ground, but from the sea, it seems concave, submerged beneath the earthen wall. The barracks are made of thick load-bearing walls and solid arched roofs to protect from cannon fire.

The south sea of Penghu
The south sea of Penghu has been one of the unwavering travelling destinations of all time. One in particular is Tong Pan Island, which is crowned as the Yellowstone Park of Penghu.
When you visit Wang An Island, which is the 4th largest island in Penghu, don't forget to visit Wang An Jhongshe. It is a well reserved village built by stones 300 years ago. The walls are especially thick because the stones were stacked up. On the windward side, stones with smaller gaps were used while larger stones were piled up on the leeward side to let the house breath, making it suitable for living on all seasons.
Taiwan OCAC: Island hopping to Penghu
影片名稱：「Island hopping to Penghu」
Each isle of Penghu has a wow factor as it seems to be carved by the heavens. The spectacular basalt-pillars look like a group of dark-skinned strong men guarding and watching over Penghu.
Windspot in comparison at Penghu National University, Penghu island, Taiwan.
The Windspot small wind turbine is recommended by the Penghu National University in Taiwan. They test multiple different small wind turbines on the market in both vertical and horizontal forms and so far nothing has come close to our Windspot performance. Many of the other small wind turbines can not withstand with the strong wind and near ocean environment, also there are several typhoons a year hitting this island. Windspot is proven to be the best and most reliable small wind turbine for your needed applications and Vietnam Eco-Solutions (VES) is proud to represent Windspot in Vietnam. Go Green!!!

Penghu Island Blew My Mind! | Taiwan Travel Vlog | 澎湖島讓我心動! | 台灣旅游網誌
Penghu Island is Taiwan’s ultimate secret gem!
Home to unmatched natural beauty with its rugged coastlines and insane landscapes!
As the sunset on Penghu Island we travelled to some of the islands most scenic spots, these spots are a must for travel photographers and those looking to tour Taiwan nature.
We also got the chance to explore the hidden gem known as Dayi Temple found in Zhuwan Village. It is perhaps the most breathtaking temple I have ever seen and is truly a must visit if you are in Taiwan or Penghu. This temple holds a secret underneath with an insane system of Coral designed tunnels with two giant turtles.
We then had traditional Taiwanese food at the first Governor of Penghu’s House now converted into a delicious authentic eatery for Taiwanese dishes.
If you are looking for some great souvenirs to take back from Penghu for family and friends then make sure to check out Shin Tai Peng for great local Penghu snacks!
Penghu is a must travel location Taiwan, if you are looking for an adventure in Taiwan then I cannot think of a better place.
Full of natural beauty, hidden gems and unreal food, Penghu Island is a great travel destination in Taiwan.
Thank you for watching this Penghu, Taiwan travel vlog. If you would like to see more videos of us travelling and vlogging in Taiwan then make sure to let us know!
澎湖島是台灣的終極秘密珍寶！
崎嶇的海岸線和瘋狂的風景帶給您無與倫比的自然美景！
澎湖島上的日落時，我們去了一些島上最美麗的景點，這些景點是旅行攝影師和那些想要遊覽台灣自然風光的人必不可少的。
我們還有機會對竹灣村發現的被稱為大義宮的隱藏寶石進行了探索。它可能是我見過的最令人嘆為觀止的寺廟，如果您在台灣或澎湖，那確實是必去的景點。這座神廟的地下隱藏著一個瘋狂的珊瑚設計的隧道系統，裡面有兩隻巨龜。
然後，我們在澎湖故居的首任總督那裡享用了傳統的台灣美食，如今已轉變成地道美食台灣菜餐廳。
如果您想找一些很棒的紀念品從澎湖帶回家人和朋友，那就一定要去新臺澎看看當地的澎湖小吃。
澎湖是台灣必遊的地方，如果您想在台灣探險，那我想不到一個更好的地方。
澎湖島充滿自然風光，隱藏的寶石和虛幻的食物，是台灣的絕佳旅遊目的地。

The Best Seafood in Taiwan! | Penghu, Taiwan Vlog | 台灣最好的海鮮！ |台灣澎湖市Vlog
Penghu may be the home to the best seafood in all of Taiwan!
In this second episode of our Penghu Taiwan travel trip, we toured the local side of Penghu, Magong City to find great Taiwanese food, seafood, hidden beaches and cool old streets.
Penghu has a lot to see but unfortunately in this Taiwan travel vlog it was raining through some of the day so the video is a little shorter.
However I hope you still enjoy our Taiwan tour video on the beautiful Taiwanese island, Penghu!
Shaved Ice and Fish Markets unique seafood dishes are a must try and must eat when visiting Penghu Taiwan.
We had a lot of fun exploring Magong City and trying different local Taiwanese food.

澎湖可能是全台灣最好的海鮮地方！
在澎湖旅行的第二部分中，我們參觀了馬公市，尋找了美味的台灣美食，海鮮，秘藏的海灘和特色老街。
澎湖有很多值得一看的地方，但不幸的是，在這個台灣旅行視頻中，一整天都在下雨，所以視頻短了一點。
但是，我希望您仍然享受我們在美麗的台灣小島澎湖裡的旅遊視頻！
到台灣澎湖旅行時，必須嚐嚐家竹黑砂糖冷熱飲店的刨冰和魚市場獨特的海鮮美食。
我們在探索馬公市和嘗試不同的台灣地道美食時玩得很開心。
