Beishan Broadcasting Wall

The Beishan Broadcasting Wall is a loudspeaker installation in Jinning featuring 48 speakers mounted on a structure as tall as a three-story building and angled toward the sea. The entire system was designed to project broadcasts across the Taiwan Strait toward the mainland coast.

The installation was built in 1967 during a period of political conflict and functioned as a messaging tool until the late 1970s. Its technical remains still dominate the coastal landscape and mark this important period in regional history.

The installation served as a psychological warfare tool during the Cold War, broadcasting music and political messages across the strait to influence audiences on the mainland. Visitors today can experience how this place reflects the divided history of the island through its physical presence.

The site is easily accessible and located right along the coast with open access to the grounds. The best time to visit is early morning or late afternoon when light conditions are favorable for viewing and photography.

Contemporary artists have transformed the site into a space for sound installations and performances examining the place's historical and territorial significance. These creative projects show how the past is being reinterpreted for modern audiences.
