Fuguijiao Lighthouse

The Fuguijiao or Cape Fugui Lighthouse is a lighthouse on Cape Fugui near Laomei Village (老梅里, Lǎoméi Lǐ) in Shimen District, New Taipei City, Taiwan. Name The lighthouse is named after nearby Cape Fugui, the northernmost point of Taiwan. Its Japanese name was Fūki Kaku. Its Chinese name (derived from a Hokkien transcription of the Dutch word hoek, meaning "hook" or "cape") is also romanized Cape Fukwei for the Chinese Postal Map, Fu-kuei Chiao using simplified Wade-Giles, and Fugueijiao from Tongyong Pinyin. It was also sometimes known in English as the Hoek Lighthouse. History A structure was first erected on the rocks at Cape Fugui in 1896 or 1897 by the occupying Japanese. It was a terminus for undersea cables from the Japanese islands and its construction materials all came from there. It was ruined during World War II but its remains were used by China's Nationalist government for the erection of a 30 m (98 ft) octagonal iron lighthouse in 1949. The foghorn was particularly needful, owing to poor visibility in the area during the fall and winter months. The lighthouse's current 14.3 m (47 ft) concrete black-and-white octagonal tower was raised in 1962. The height was greatly reduced to improve the reception of the nearby air force radar station. Taiwan's Customs traditionally welcomed visitors to the lighthouse once a year on Tax Day as an open house gesture. After the enthusiastic public response to opening Eluanbi Lighthouse to more general tourism, Taiwan's Maritime and Port Bureau decided to open Fuguijiao to regular visitors in 2015. The first tourists were allowed onto the grounds on September 5, making it the 11th Taiwanese lighthouse opened to the general public. It remains inaccessible on weekdays because of the radar station. The tower itself remains closed to the public. Transportation The lighthouse is located about 2 km (1.2 mi) north of Laomei Village, off Provincial Highway 2.

Phare du cap Fugui

Le phare du cap Fugui (chinois traditionnel : 富貴角燈塔 ; pinyin : Fùguìjiǎo dēngtǎ) est un phare situé sur le cap Fugui près du village de Laomei dans le district de Shimen, dans le Nouveau Taipei à Taïwan. Nom Le phare porte le nom du cap Fugui, situé à l'extrémité nord de l'île de Taïwan. Son nom japonais était Fūki Kaku. Son nom chinois (dérivé d'une transcription en hokkien du mot néerlandais hoek, qui signifie « crochet » ou « cap ») est également romanisé en Cape Fukwei pour le service postal. La dénomination Fu-kuei Chiao utilise le système simplifié de Wade-Giles, et celle de Fugueijiao du Tongyong Pinyin. En anglais, il portait le nom de Hoek Lighthouse. Histoire Une structure fut d'abord érigée sur les rochers du cap Fugui en 1896 ou en 1897 par l'occupant japonais: elle fut un terminus pour les câbles sous-marins des îles japonaises. Les matériaux qui servirent à sa construction provenaient tous du Japon. Le phare fut détruit pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale mais ses vestiges furent utilisés par le gouvernement nationaliste chinois pour l'érection d'un phare octogonal en fer de 30 mètres en 1949. La corne de brume était particulièrement utile en raison de la faible visibilité dans la région pendant les mois d’automne et d’hiver. Le phare actuel, d'une hauteur de 14,3 mètres, construit à partir d'une tour octogonale en béton noir et blanc, fut érigé en 1962. La hauteur fut considérablement réduite pour améliorer la réception de la station radar de l'armée de l'air à proximité. Les douanes taïwanaises accueillaient traditionnellement les visiteurs dans le phare une fois par an lors d'une porte ouverte au cours de la journée de l'impôt. Après la réaction enthousiaste du public à l'ouverture du phare Eluanbi au tourisme, le Bureau maritime de Taïwan décida d'ouvrir le phare du cap Fugui aux visiteurs réguliers en 2015. Les premiers touristes furent autorisés à pénétrer sur le site le 5 septembre, ce qui en fait le onzième phare de Taïwan ouvert au grand public. Il reste toutefois inaccessible en semaine à cause de la station radar et la tour elle-même reste fermée au public. Transport Le phare est situé à environ 2 kilomètres au nord du village de Laomei, près de la route provinciale 2.
