Huāniǎoshān Lighthouse, Maritime navigation beacon in Zhoushan, China
The round brick tower rises 16.5 meters above the northern tip of Huaniao Shan Island, painted black with a white horizontal band at its base.
Constructed in 1870, the lighthouse became instrumental in guiding vessels approaching Shanghai from southern routes through the complex waters of the East China Sea.
The International Association of Maritime Aids to Navigation and Lighthouse Authorities recognized this structure as one of the Historical Lighthouses of the World in 1997.
The lighthouse emits a white flash every 15 seconds and includes a fog siren that produces five blasts every 60 seconds for enhanced navigation safety.
China issued an 80-fen postage stamp in 2002 featuring the Huaniaoshan Lighthouse to commemorate its maritime heritage and navigational importance.
