Because there is a big stone like a sail in the nearby Banana Bay, this name was specially chosen. In addition, the ground is shaped like a prominent nose, which refers to a headland, so it is called "E Luan Nose" or "Goose Goose". In Taiwan Province literature during the Japanese occupation, the name of this place was often written in katakana as "ガランピ" or the Chinese character "Goose's Nose". 1982 Establish Goose Watching Wall Park, with Goose Watching Wall Lighthouse as the main body, with a planned scenic area of 50 hectares. Geographical location is located at the southernmost tip of Taiwan Province Island, on the platform at the end of the central mountain range. Its tip extends overseas to form a peninsula, with the sea on three sides and the mountain on the other. It is the dividing line between the Pacific Ocean, bashi channel and the Strait of Taiwan Province Province, and it is as important as the Cape of Good Hope in Africa that southern maritime vessels must pass through here. There used to be a high mountain paiwan people living here. In paiwan language, "sailing boat" means goose raft. Because there is a stone in the sea near Banana Bay, which is 50 meters high and about 40 meters in circumference, it looks like a sail, so it is named "Sailing Stone". Because it is connected to Hengchun Mountain in the north, surrounded by mountains and the sea, it protrudes like a nose, so it is named "Goose-Luan-Bi". It is also famous because there is a big lighthouse here. The scenic features of Luan nose are important coordinate points to determine the position of night ships in the southern waters of Taiwan Province Province. The tower is all white and round, and it is divided into four floors. Each floor has an iron ladder of 15, the tower height is 18 m, and the circumference of the tower bottom is 1 10 m, which stands tall on the coast like a giant. The light in the tower flashes automatically every 10 second, and the light power can reach 20 nautical miles. It is the largest maritime lighthouse in the Far East and has the reputation of "the light of East Asia". During the day, I climbed to the top of the lighthouse, overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the Taiwan Province Strait and bashi channel. On a clear day, at the southernmost tip of Taiwan Province Province, the Seven-Star Rock hanging in the waves can be seen faintly, and occasionally whales can be seen splashing in the sea. The sea area near Eguanbi is a coral reef limestone terrain, with huge rocks and rugged rocks. There are natural grottoes such as Hero Stone, Qingtian Stone, Pig Head Stone, Caohai Cave and Ancient Cave, which are very interesting. It is called "Hawaii in Taiwan Province Province" because of its spring-like seasons and colorful scenery, known as the tropical seaside atmosphere of banana wind and coconut rain, blue sea and white waves. The historical evolution of the Eluanbi Lighthouse was built in 1882 (the eighth year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty) to prevent foreigners from hitting the rocks when sailing in the south of Taiwan Province Province. It is located in Kenting National Park, Hengchun Town, Pingtung County, which means it is located at the southernmost tip of the Central Mountain Platform, facing the Philippines across the bashi channel. "A lighthouse with a history of more than one hundred years in Taiwan Province Province is a famous historic site, and there is a Lu 'an Bi Park where the lighthouse is located. Once considered as the southernmost symbol of Taiwan Province Province, it was replaced by the southernmost landmark of Taiwan Province. There is a seven-star rock reef on the coast near Luan nose. In the past, ships unfamiliar with nearby waters often ran into rocks and sank. 1867 (the sixth year of Tongzhi in Qing Dynasty), an American merchant ship was lost in the storm on the way from Shantou to Niuzhuang, drifted to the vicinity of Qixingyan, hit a rock and sank. After the captain, his wife and the crew swam ashore, all the others were killed by the aborigines of the Guizaijiao Club (the top of the club), which is known as the Lofa incident in history. Ryukyu fishermen were also killed in the south headland, which led to the Peony Society incident. The United States and Japan therefore asked the Qing Dynasty to set up a lighthouse here. Due to diplomatic pressure, the Qing court entrusted Bi Qili, a member of the Royal Geographical Society, to set out for Langya (now Hengchun) in June 18 in 1875, and paid 120 yuan to buy a lighthouse reservation from the aborigines of Guizai Society to build a tower. The lighthouse was started on 188 1 and completed on 1883. Because the local area is the territory of aborigines, the government also sent 500 troops to guard it before and after the construction. The height from the * * * plane to the center of the lamp is 56.4m.. The white circular tower is divided into five floors. The first floor stores kerosene, the second floor is equipped with green cannons, the third floor is a rest place for foreigners, and the fourth floor is equipped with Taiwan Eight Scenery Stone Monuments. Among them, the "Eluanbi" is an "Eluanbi" written by imitating Wang Xizhi's handwriting. There is a white wall around the lighthouse. The lighthouse has the appearance of a gun seat, and the walls are covered with gun holes. There is a trench outside the wall. The roof of the whole tower area is a "water storage ping". Rainwater is collected into nine granite reservoirs underground along water pipes, and the water source is self-sufficient. These facilities were built to prevent the invasion and siege of aborigines. Therefore, the Guluanbi Lighthouse has become a unique armed lighthouse in the world. The total cost is more than 202,000 silver. Later, after the Sino-Japanese War, the Qing army retired from Taiwan in 1895, and Ouyang Xuan, the magistrate of Hengchun County, was ordered to secretly burn the light towers, stone walls and stone piers in South Taiwan Province Province. The lighthouse was destroyed in September 2003 at 65438+. 1898 during the Japanese occupation period, the lighthouse was rebuilt, and 1904 set up a telephone line, which was the first telephone in Hengchun area. During World War II, the lighthouse was destroyed by the allied air strikes. After the reconstruction of 1962, the tower height was 24. 1m, and the top of the tower was replaced with a new large four-stage rotating lens lamp. After passing through a large rotating lens, the light intensity is1.8000 Candeira, flashing once every ten seconds, and the irradiation distance reaches 27.2 li. It is the lighthouse with the strongest light intensity in Taiwan Province Province at present, and is called "the light of East Asia". The ancient Luanbi is a promontory at the southern tip of Taiwan Province Province, which belongs to the limestone terrain of coral reefs, so the geographical landscape is very peculiar, with grotesque rocks, huge reefs, karst caves and a unique seascape, and it is known as one of the "eight scenic spots in Taiwan". 1982 Establish Goose Wall Park, with the lighthouse as the main body and a planned scenic area of 50 hectares.
