Guosheng Port Lighthouse, Maritime navigation structure in Qigu District, Taiwan
Guosheng Port Lighthouse is a steel-frame structure with a cone-shaped tower painted in alternating black and white bands. It stands at Taiwan's westernmost point and continues to operate as a working navigation aid.
An earlier lighthouse at this location was destroyed by Typhoon Viola in 1969. The current tower was built in 1970 at Ding-tou-er-shan to restore maritime safety.
The lighthouse holds meaning for the local fishing community as a working navigation aid that continues to guide boats. It remains a visible symbol of how maritime traditions shape daily life in this coastal area.
The site is accessible by various transportation options and located near Qigu Lagoon and the Black-faced Spoonbill Ecology Exhibition Hall. Visitors can easily combine a visit here with nearby coastal attractions.
The lighthouse provides views over Qigu Lagoon where traditional fishing boats navigate through mangrove-lined waterways. This setting reveals how modern navigation infrastructure coexists with long-standing fishing practices in the area.
