Hengchun Peninsula is surrounded by Taiwan Strait, Bashi Channel and Pacific Ocean.
恆春半島被台灣海峽、巴士海峽和太平洋環繞。
The coast of Taiwan Strait encompasses the west side of Hengchun Ancient City, right side of Provincial Highway 26 south and from Mountain Gui Trail in Checheng County to Mao-bito.
台灣海峽海岸包圍著恆春古城的西邊、台26線往南的右手邊和從車城鄉的龜山步道到貓鼻頭。
Tourist attractions abound along the coast. If you feel like walking along the scenic coastal trail, we recommend that you go to Mountain Gui Trail, National Museum of Marine Biology and Aquarium, Won-li-ton, Guan-shan and White Sand Bay.
觀光景點沿岸都盛多。假如你想要沿著海岸景觀道路走,建議你可以到龜山步道、國立海洋生物博物館、萬里桐、關山以及白砂海灣。
Mountain Gui Trail
龜山步道
Getting back on Provincial Highway 26 north after leaving Hengchun Ancient City, you will arrive at the entrance to Mountain Gui Trail after you take the Township Road Ping 153 toward National Museum of Marine Biology and Aquarium.
離開恆春古城回到台26線往北走,從屏153號道路往海生館方向走,你會遇到龜山步道入口。
It takes a little over 10 minutes to get to the hilltop. There are several lookouts on the hilltop, giving you the pleasure of viewing the sea scenery; we noticed some partially collapsed boardwalks along the way. Be aware of them while hiking.
登上山頂,要爬比十分鐘多一點。山頂有好幾個觀景台,呈現給你觀海景的樂趣;我們沿路注意到有一些木棧道部分崩塌,登頂要小心。
The name Mountain Gui originated from the shape of the mountain that resembles a turtle. The word Gui in Chinese actually means "turtle."
龜山的名字源自山的形狀,很像一隻烏龜。「Gui」的中文意思就是烏龜。
At an elevation of only 72 meters on the hilltop, you can see National Museum of Marine Biology and Aquarium to your left; to your right are the Sizhong River and Bao-li River mouths. You can also see Hengchun Airport, the calm sea, clean beaches and water. It's hard to imagine this being a historic battle site.
山頂的海拔只有72公尺,你可以看到國立海洋生物館在你左邊,你的右邊是四重溪和保力溪出海口。你也可以看到恆春機場,平靜的海面,乾淨的沙灘和河水。很難想像這是戰爭歷史的現場。
After the Mudan Incident in 1874, the Japanese invasion of Taiwan took place at the river mouths that you saw from the lookout.
你從這個觀景台看到的地方,就是1874年牡丹社事件後,日軍入侵台灣所在。
Being a good vantage point providing 270-degree field of view, the hilltop became the command center for the Japanese guiding the amphibious troops that went upstream along the river towards the Native Taiwanese tribes .
山頂擁有270度視野的優越制高點,變成日軍的指揮中心,導引登陸部隊沿河溯溪,前往原住民部落。
At the upper reaches of the river, which is the Shihmen Ancient Battle Field near Sizhong River Hot Spring Area, an intense battle broke out.
並在河流上游,也就是四重溪溫泉附近的石門古戰場,爆發激戰。
The hill and river mouth played a strategic importance. The bunkers built by the Japanese are left intact on the hill. The bunkers can be used as observatories. The Taiwanese Navy utilized the river mouth to fire cannons from the sea onto the land shooting range during naval gun exercises in the early days.
這個山頭和出海口的戰略位置很重要。日軍建造的碉堡還留在山上。碉堡也可以當做觀測所。早期台灣海軍在艦砲演習時,也用這河口,從海面往陸地射靶場發砲。
National Museum of Marine Biology and Aquarium
國立海洋生物博物館
National Museum of Marine Biology and Aquarium, with a total area of 96 hectares, is the largest of its kind in Taiwan, featuring the longest underwater tunnel in Southeast Asia.
國立海洋生物博物館全部面積96公頃,是台灣規模最大的海洋生物館,擁有全東南亞最長的海底隧道。
The museum is divided into Waters of Taiwan, Coral Kingdom Pavilion, and Waters of the World including a 3-story aquarium, a underwater tunnel and perhaps the cutest penguins and beluga whales, giving you an almost vicarious experience of exploring underwater.
博物館分成台灣水域館、珊瑚王國館、世界水域館,包含了三層樓高的水族箱、海底隧道還有也許最可愛的企鵝和小白鯨,給你如同身在海底探險的體驗。
The package tour the museum provides is worth mentioning. They provide sleeping bags and breakfast for overnight stays. It's a bit like the movie Night at Museum, where you get to sleep with the fishes except without the fear of getting eaten by them.
值得一提的是,海生館提供的套裝行程。他們提供睡袋和早餐,讓你在這裡過夜。有點像電影博物館驚魂夜的感覺,你可以和魚共眠,卻不用怕被牠們吃掉你。
Won-li-ton, Guan-shan and White Sand Bay
萬里桐、關山和白砂海灣
Going on the scenic coastal trail, you'll have beautiful views along the way. Won-li-ton, Guan-shan and White Sand Bay are all great attractions.
走海岸景觀道路,你沿路會看到優美風景。萬里桐、關山和白砂海灣,都是非常棒的景點。
You can see this part of the beautiful coast from National Museum of Marine Biology and Aquarium. The blue sea along the coast of Won-li-ton is abundantly clear. This is the designated location for future Underwater Park.
你從海生館就可以看到這段美麗的海岸。藍色大海沿著萬里桐海岸很清澈。是未來海底公園設置地點。
Guan-shan is a tableland, making it a fantastic place for observing sunset. White Sandy Bay has Guan-shan shielding the northeast monsoon during winter. With its clean white sandy beach, this place is good for swimming and snorkeling all year round.
關山是台地,成為欣賞日落的絕佳地點。白砂海灣有關山台地擋住冬天東北季風。加上有乾淨潔白的沙灘,全年都可以游泳和浮潛。
