Liuchiu Yu Lighthouse, Navigation lighthouse in Nanfukeng Village, Taiwan.

The cylindrical white lighthouse stands 33 meters tall on Liuchiu Island, featuring a red lantern room that guides ships through offshore waters.

The Maritime and Port Bureau constructed this navigation structure in 1883 during the Qing Dynasty to prevent maritime accidents along Taiwan's southwestern coast.

The lighthouse represents maritime navigation traditions of Pingtung County, where local fishermen rely on its signals for their daily activities at sea.

Access to the lighthouse requires a ferry from Donggang Harbor, with multiple daily departures that transport visitors to Liuchiu Island.

The structure maintains its original automated light system, which produces specific signal patterns to help vessels identify their position in surrounding waters.
