- 介紹:
- 西嶼燈塔別名漁翁島燈塔,為澎湖二級古蹟,原為1778年由澎湖通判與台灣知府合建,1824年起這170年內多次整修方呈現現在白漆圓鐵柱狀的模樣。燈塔入口三角形門楣上的英文題字「DAVID M. HENDERSON 1874」,係燈塔設計者的署名。庭院內有三塊保存完整的石碑,分別是1778年所立的《興建西嶼塔燈碑記》、1779年的《建修西嶼塔燈落成碑記》,以及1828年《西嶼塔燈碑記》。
- 西嶼燈塔可以說是台灣地區最早的洋式燈塔,散步西嶼燈塔園區,西式洋樓、雪白的咾咕石圍牆都足以感受到一股強烈的希臘風或者說是普羅旺斯的味道。園區內比較特別的有燈塔文物陳列館,另外則是三尊霧砲跟煙墩,霧笛則是海面能見度極差的時候能夠用來警告船隻。
- 漁翁島燈塔不僅僅是霧砲、塔樓由英國跟德國分別製造,就連以前燈塔守塔員都是由外籍人士擔任,目前燈塔西側圍牆外就保有一位外籍守塔員的墳塚。
- 西嶼燈塔南邊的海域乃澎湖傳統海流湍急的海域,澎湖俗諺「一吼門二西流」中的西流就是指這個海域,此海域又是西嶼漁船前往南方漁場必經的水道,百年前燈塔旁還有天后宮小廟跟公館提供船夫上岸休息,可見當年西嶼燈塔的重要性與功能之強大。
- 建議玩法:
- 西嶼燈塔是北環旅遊的最後一個景點,但是卻有不少遊客在黃昏霞照中找不到西嶼燈塔而敗興,因為西嶼燈塔前方十來公尺橫堵著陸軍雷達站,所以不少遊客騎車騎到雷達站前就折返,也有不少人試圖進入陸軍雷達站基地參觀!哈!這些遊客心中一定是這麼想的:這燈塔偽裝得真特別啊!其實只要將車子熄火,從陸軍雷達站旁右側步行繞過草原,視野就豁然開朗,西嶼燈塔也跟著找到。
- 西嶼燈塔旁邊除了雄偉的斷崖地形以外,廣闊的西嶼草原是另一種美,草原上常常見看放牧的牛群結隊吃草,藍天綠地搭配不怕生的牛群以及雪白的燈塔建築,這就是我說的歐洲田園風在西嶼重現。站友們可以和牛群接近拍照,但是千萬不要去欺負小牛囉,我的經驗是母牛會在旁邊監視著你,自己看著辦吧!
- 西嶼燈塔旁的斷崖是欣賞西嶼夕陽最佳的景點,夏日黃昏總會有不少情侶、攝影者、散坐在燈塔旁的草地上觀賞夕照將海面染金,在早起的星子目送下緩緩落入海心。然而因為西嶼燈塔只開放到下午4點,所以看夕陽跟參觀西嶼燈塔總是會衝突,縣府實在該協調一下才是,這才是拼觀光吧!一面行銷西嶼夕陽的美景,另一面燈塔卻在下午4點早早閉門謝客,這似乎不太合情理。所以遊客如果想入塔區內拍照又想看夕陽,可能得下午到西嶼後,4點前先前來燈塔參觀,再折回西嶼其他景點,最終六點出頭再來到西嶼燈塔旁的草原看夕陽。
- 西嶼燈塔園區內視野最佳的觀海點是燈塔員工宿舍二樓小平台,這邊可以眺望澎湖危險的西流海域,說也奇怪,在雪白欄柱的輝映下,從這個角度看出去的海總是特別的藍。
- 搭配路線:
- 澎湖人的老記憶:
- 西嶼燈塔又名漁翁島燈塔,漁翁島和西嶼這兩個地名替代性關係的典故:跨海大橋未通前的時代,西嶼和馬公之間交通不便,彼此甚少互動,西嶼蒙上了一層神秘的面紗,住在馬公地區的人對西嶼的認識十分有限,只知道這個島上的人個個都是捕魚高手,夜晚時總是看見西嶼海面布滿作業的漁火,於是馬公地區的先民就將這座島嶼取名為漁翁島。現今跨海大橋進入西嶼後之右側矗立一座老漁翁的青銅雕像,可見一斑。
