Now, you can still enjoy various traditional snacks on Shamei Old Street and experience the nostalgic atmosphere.

Oucuo Village

Fishing is no longer the main source of income for Oucuo villagers, but the sea is still there to enjoy, of course. It only takes about 10 min to walk down to the beach. If it's low tide, be on the lookout for the half-buried tank in the sand.

Bishan Village

They're the result of a 2002 village revitalization project led by a picture book artist named Wawa. Rui Yu School was listed as a county monument and was restored. Today, it serves as a community art and cultural center. Though time has done damage to the Baroque-style architecture, you can still get a sense of Chen Rui-Yu's vision for the local children through the fine clay sculptures of Indian policemen, flowers, cranes, etc.

Chuan Xing Fort

Chuan Xing Fort (E-037)”, also known as “Hushan fort,” is located at the seaside of Hou Bian Hu Shan bay in Jinsha. The fort is 3-levels high and there is an underground tunnel connecting the two underground forts on its right and left sides. The Fort’s name (Chuan Xing means Ship-shaped) came from its resemblance to a warship, with the bow facing towards the shore, creating an interesting scene of a big ship landing on the shore.

Qionglin Village

This patterned tile wall was made in 2010, a collaboration between community members and a local artist named Wu Ding-Xin. They used tiles traditionally fired in a kiln to create a striking kapok (red silk cotton) tree. You'll find it on a wall attached to a residence behind the Temple of Protection in Qionglin.

Zhongbao Blueprint

Tourists come to Kinmen for its abundant battlefield relics. Therefore, Kinmen’s Zhongbao Blueprint is inspired by the military recreational activity, billiards. Based on the layout of a billiard room, a blueprint is created featuring elaborate architectural details of the roof, interior decor and a billiard table. As common neighborhood wall paintings are not as exciting anymore, Zhongbao Blueprint is for sure an innovative way of revitalizing idle spaces.
