Dongyong Lighthouse

The Dongyong Lighthouse (traditional Chinese: 東湧燈塔; simplified Chinese: 东涌灯塔; pinyin: Dōngyǒng Dēngtǎ[3]) or Tungyung Lighthouse is a lighthouse on the eastern side of Dongyin Island (Tungyung, Dongyong) in Dongyin Township, Lienchiang County, Fujian Province, Taiwan.

In the late 19th century, Qing Dynasty opened a port in the area, thus the Dongyong Lighthouse was built by British engineers to guide ships.

[6] The lighthouse faces the Taiwan Strait at the northeast of Dongyin Island.

The lighthouse is made of bricks and painted white on the outer walls.

The height is 14.3 meters (47 ft) and it flashes light three times every 20 seconds.
