The elegant lighthouse was built on 1967, even before Taichung Port was built. Not everybody knows, but in Japanese time this part of Gaomei Wetlands was a beach resort! The port changed the pattern of the coastal streams and caused this part of the Wetlands to become muddy. Here Taichung government has recently built an elegant gangway 800 meters long to preserve the delicate environment of the sedge grassland. The gangway also makes easy for everybody to access the wetlands.
