Guardian in the Embrace of the Ocean

A-Po Bao Dun, located in Fenggui Village, Magong City, Penghu County, is a unique sea-eroded rock formation. This massive basalt reef resembles a hunched elderly woman quietly holding a stone block, which is how it got its name. Situated along the coastline, it has been sculpted over the years by relentless waves, forming its current shape. Beyond being a natural wonder, it carries local legends, symbolizing a mother's protection and blessings for her descendants' safe voyages. Visitors can marvel at the stunning interplay of the peculiar rock and the vast ocean while experiencing the fishing village's cultural emphasis on familial love and guardianship. At sunset, the silhouette of A-Po Bao Dun against the sea and sky exudes a tender yet poignant beauty. ⸻ 🧭 Guide • Address: Fenggui Village, Magong City, Penghu County (near the Fenggui Peninsula coastline) • Transportation: • About 20 minutes by scooter or car from Magong City • Can be visited alongside "Fenggui Cave" • Highlights: • Uniquely shaped basalt reef • Local legends and cultural significance • Best spot for sunset photography • Tips: • The rocky coastal area can be slippery, so exercise caution • Recommended to visit before sunset for soft lighting and optimal photography
