Fengguiwei Fort, Dutch colonial fort in Magong, Taiwan

The fort features square walls measuring 55 meters on each side with defensive bastions positioned at all four corners of the structure.

Built in December 1622, the Dutch East India Company constructed this military installation to control maritime trade routes in the East Asian region.

The fort construction involved 1500 local laborers, reflecting the complex relationship between colonial powers and indigenous populations during the 17th century.

Located on a peninsula across from Magong Harbor, visitors can access the historical site through guided tours departing from central Magong.

The fort's walls combined different materials, with rock-covered fortifications on the southwest side and wooden structures on the remaining three sides.
