Guanlunbi Park is located at the southern tip of Taiwan. Due to the strong coastal sunlight and clear seawater, it is suitable for the growth of reef-building corals. The park has risen due to tectonic uplift, and has been shaped by wave erosion, rainwater runoff, and strong winds, resulting in the current spectacle of towering reefs, grotesque rocks, peculiar peaks, and caves. The park’s trails crisscross like a maze, and there are various attractions such as the Hero Stone, the Canghai Pavilion, the Youyicun, the Qiurong, the secluded valley, and the Yingbin Pavilion, each captivating in its own way.
Looking north from the park, one can see the blue sky and green sea, green trees and white sand, jagged reefs, and sharp peaks of the platform, as well as the towering Qiongma flower axis, interspersed among them, forming a magnificent and colorful landscape. Additionally, every September (around the solar term of White Dew), a large number of Red-tailed Shrikes from Siberia and mainland China pass through, a spectacular scene worth waiting for.
The most famous feature within the park is the Guanlunbi Lighthouse, an armed lighthouse with a history of over a hundred years, known as the ‘Light of East Asia’. The pure white, beautiful tower stands out against the blue sky and green grass, offering a particularly pleasing sight. Next to the lighthouse, there is a memorial stone for the ‘Eight Views of Taiwan’ for tourists to take photos and remember their visit. On the northwest side of the Guanlunbi Lighthouse, scholars have discovered a prehistoric site of the Pre-Ceramic culture dating back 5,000 years, which is also worth a visit. The park is open throughout the year from 06:30 to 18:30.
