Gaomei Lighthouse, Historic lighthouse in Qingshui District, Taiwan.
The Gaomei Lighthouse features red and white horizontal bands on its octagonal tower structure, reaching a height of 34 meters above ground level.
The reinforced concrete lighthouse began operations in 1967 and continued its maritime safety role until 1982, when its equipment moved to Taichung Port.
The Maritime and Port Bureau transformed this Historic Building of Taiwan into a public site, opening its doors to visitors in September 2014.
Visitors can reach the lighthouse by taking the Taiwan Railways to Taichung Port Station and following the marked path on the western side.
The lighthouse stands near the Gaomei Wetlands, where migratory birds gather during seasonal transitions in a protected natural environment.
