Lighthouse Heritage Research Connections - An Interview with the Magistrate of Penghu County LAI Feng-weiFor the continuation and development of the LHRC project, collaborations from the community are seen as necessary. The Magistrate of Penghu County LAI Feng-wei was invited to review LHRC's project on the Fisher Island Lighthouse and the SS Bokhara shipwreck in Sand Island (one of the Penghu isles). He mentioned The Titanic Belfast Museum in the United Kingdom that was built to commemorate the shipwreck. Through the cooperation between the locals, governments and institutions, Magistrate LAI believes an excellent learning platform for the society can be built. He also hopes to recreate and promote the rich cultural heritage, such as the Fisher Island Lighthouse, by making education materials for primary school students and leading guided tours for Penghu visitors. Magistrate LAI also said that students can understand and discover more about our past in this meaning project, such as the story of the Engineer-in-Chief of the Fisher Island Lighthouse, Mr. David Marr HENDERSON. The lighthouse, which still uses the original rotating optic installed in the 19th century to control the rotation cycles of the light, connects the history of Penghu, Hong Kong as well as the United Kingdom. Different parties, including students of City University of Hong Kong, co-operate and share their resources as they strive to achieve these goals.

19th Century Finance in ChinaOn 10 October 1892, the SS Bokhara shipwrecked on Sand Island (Penghu Islands) with only 23 survivors out of 148 people on board. The Bokhara was also carrying silver and gold bullion, which in modern terms would have been tens of millions of dollars. Why was the Bokhara carrying so much physical bullion?Lighthouse Heritage Research Connections, with Subject Specialist Stephen DAVIES (HKU), looks into the financial system of China in the nineteenth-century, far removed from today's digitally interlinked world.

Penghu Marine Geological Park: The Beauty of Xiaomenyu澎湖海洋地質公園 - 小門嶼之美
玄武岩為澎湖群島最著名的地質特徵,渾然天成、氣勢磅礴,呈現各種不同的樣貌,有垂直狀、傾倒狀、放射狀、倒伏狀等奇特地景,全臺僅有。
小門嶼位於澎湖西嶼鄉,為玄武岩方山小島,地質地形景觀是澎湖群島的縮影,海岸地形豐富,有侵蝕型海岸,如海崖、海蝕平台,有堆積型海岸,如玄武岩礫石灘。
最著名的地質景點為「鯨魚洞」。此處原為玄武岩的海崖,底部岩層與沉積岩之接觸面,經海浪侵蝕而掏空較軟的沉積岩後形成海蝕洞,再逐漸形成海蝕拱門,因外型近似鯨魚頭露出水面而得名。鯨魚洞顯露出不同顏色的岩層,主要是出露完整的鐵質石英砂岩與殼灰岩。在小門嶼亦可見到各式各樣的風化地形,如玄武岩表面片狀風化、球狀風化、塊狀風化等。
「菜宅」是澎湖群島特有的農業文化景觀,建築方式相當特別,將玄武岩及硓𥑮石經過曝曬,去除雜質,堆砌時打好地基,成為穩固的一道擋風牆,維持澎湖群島的農業命脈,也是在地農民與大自然共同生存的智慧。
澎湖海洋地質公園以擁有地質地形特色、常民文化與自然生態而聞名,而位在澎湖本島遊憩系統的小門嶼,更是能一窺澎湖全貌,歡迎大家來一趟探索之旅。
