Bright Moon Garden

  [edit this]

Bright Moon Garden is located in the southeast of the island, facing the Lujiang Harbor. The garden occupies an area of nearly 20,000 square meters. It was established in August 1985. The Zheng Chenggong Statue, standing between the sky and the earth, is the main structure of the garden. It is 15.7 meters in height, and is the biggest Chinese historical figure statue. On the plaza in the garden a group of bonze statues show us the historical scene of driving out the Dutch invaders out of Taiwan under the leadership of Zheng Chenggong.

The garden forms a wonderful view combining buildings of Ming Dynasty style with natural beauty, like gulls, trees, sea view and mountain sight. Altogether they constitute a picture of natural beauty. It takes only five minutes' walk from the ferry to the garden. Every main crossing has clear direction signs. With them, you can never get lost on the island.

Admission fee: RMB ¥ 15 per person
