Female Laborer Memorial Park, Memorial park in Qijin District, Taiwan.

The park features a large stone monument adorned with a lotus flower and a stainless steel sculpture displaying the date September 3, 1973.

In 1973, a ferry accident claimed the lives of 25 unmarried female workers who were commuting from Qijin to the Kaohsiung Export Processing Zone.

The site transformed from Twenty-Five Ladies' Cemetery to Labor Women's Memorial Park in 2008, recognizing female workers' contributions to Taiwan's economic development.

The memorial park remains accessible throughout the day and provides parking facilities, with convenient access from the Qijin Ferry Terminal via local bus services.

The steel sculpture incorporates multiple typography styles to mark the precise moment of the maritime tragedy that changed labor safety regulations in Taiwan.
