Penghu Duxing Village is a must-see attraction when you go to Penghu. There are cute words written on the walls. Everyone hurry up and take pictures with them. I really like every wall here.

There is a place that makes people want to slow down at the edge of Magong Port in Penghu. There is no noise of tourist groups, no crowds of signs, only red brick and tile houses in the sun, the sound of old records floating in the wind, and rows of old houses with the names of time written on them. This is Duxing Ten Village, one of the oldest military dependents' villages in Taiwan, and a cultural settlement full of stories. 🏠 From military base to cultural and creative base, the past and present of Duxing Ten Village Duxing Ten Village was built during the Japanese occupation period. It was originally a dormitory for the Japanese Navy and became a military dependents' quarters after the war. It was born earlier than Sisi Nan Village in Taipei and Guangfu New Village in Taichung, and is one of the earliest military dependents' villages established in Taiwan. In the past, many air force families lived here. Today, the old houses still retain their original appearance, with mottled tiles and creaking wooden doors. Time seems to flow through the cracks in the wall, leaving footprints quietly. After restoration and reuse, the village has gradually transformed into a cultural and creative park, with art and cultural exhibition spaces, small coffee shops, and handmade shops, which not only retain the old flavor but also inject new energy. 🎶 The hometown of two music superstars gives melody to memories If you have heard "My Future Is Not a Dream" and "Grandma's Penghu Bay", then you must come here for a visit. Because these two representative musicians, Zhang Yusheng and Pan Anbang, are both children of Duxing Village. There are two former residences in the village, which are now converted into memorial halls, showing their life photos, records, manuscripts and performance clips. In particular, Zhang Yusheng's room still retains his desk and window view from his youth, making people seem to see him sitting in front of the window humming. If you happen to walk into a room and hear the song coming out of the radio, it may be Pan Anbang's "Old Love" being replayed, or it may be Zhang Yusheng's high pitch reminding you: Dreams are really not far away. 📷 Photography tips: Let the picture tell the story It is recommended to visit in the afternoon when the light is soft, and take backlit photos of the red brick house + blue sky, the colors are saturated and warm Remember to take more details: such as the old font on the doorplate, the green leaves in the window frame, or the calligraphy slogans on the wall When taking portraits, you can stand by the window of Zhang Yusheng’s former residence or in the alleys of the military dependents’ village, and the picture will have a strong sense of nostalgia 📍【Information compilation of Duxing Ten Villages】 Location: Section 1, Xinfu Road, Magong City, Penghu County (just navigate to "Duxing Ten Villages") Tickets: Free admission Business hours: 9:00-18:00 daily (some stores are closed on Mondays) Suggested stay: 1 to 1.5 hours Possible attractions in series: Central Old Street, Four Eyes Well, Guanyin Pavilion, Tianhou Temple, Snack Night Market If you want to hear the sound of Penghu, it doesn’t have to be the waves, it can also be an old song, a window, or an old house Duxing Village is not a bustling tourist attraction.

In the hot Penghu, we walked around Duxing Village under the scorching sun. Although it was extremely hot, it was a different experience for the whole family to travel together. The Zhang Yusheng Memorial Hall makes me travel back to my youth. Every song in the background music brings me different memories. After a round of shopping, I went to a Japanese-style hipster shop, had a drink, enjoyed the air conditioning and chatted. It was also comfortable. I just didn't want to go out and face the hot reality =_=

#Moses Divides the Sea at Kuibi Mountain The miracle story in the Bible, Moses parted the Red Sea and led the Jews to escape from Egypt. Such a wonder can also be seen in Kuibi Mountain in Penghu.

The daily splitting of the sea will also be different according to the tide time. Kuibi Mountain is also a good place to watch the sunrise. Many people will choose the sunrise, which is also the time of splitting the sea, to feel the beautiful scenery created by nature. #Nanliao Ancient House Floating Ball Secret Realm The popular Penghu secret attractions and Penghu IG attractions, colorful floating ball fishing gear, combined with light and shadow, are cute and easy to photograph.

#2月好地方2025 This visit to Duxing Village in Penghu gave me a deeper understanding of this historic military village. Duxing Village was originally a military camp during the Japanese occupation, and later became a housing estate for military dependents. It has now been converted into a cultural park that preserves and displays the life of the past. Wandering through the alleys of Duxing Village, you can feel the strong nostalgic atmosphere. The mottled red brick walls, low houses, and old wooden doors and windows all tell of the past times here. I particularly like those preserved old houses, which are filled with many daily necessities of the time, such as black and white TVs, bamboo chairs, old-fashioned telephones, etc., making people feel like traveling back in time. What attracted me most was the "Pan Anbang Memorial Hall". Pan Anbang is a well-known singer in Penghu. His song "Grandma's Penghu Bay" made many people know this beautiful island. In the memorial hall, I saw many photos, records and life stories related to him, and felt his deep affection for his hometown. In addition, Duxing Village also has some art installations and cultural and creative stores, which make this old military dependents' village full of new vitality. I saw some handicrafts and specialty products here. Each piece has the local characteristics of Penghu, making people want to take a few home as souvenirs. This visit allowed me to better understand the history and culture of Penghu, and also to appreciate how Duxing Village has given new life to old buildings through preservation and renovation. If I have the chance to visit Penghu again, I will definitely come here again to experience this unique historical atmosphere.

Walking in the military dependents’ village has its own unique flavor. Visited on a weekday morning, there were few people, many shops were closed, I wanted to go for a walk and buy sea bird's nest at the door, but it was closed at noon😅 There are many commemorative items in the Zhang Yusheng Story House, such as family letters, graduation certificates... etc., I feel inexplicably sad🥲 Pan Anbang Story House exhibits some of his hand-painted works, and there are many reports. There are some interesting paintings on the wall where you can take photos and check in. Want to go to Hong Kong to eat Hong Kong dim sum🇭🇰
