The Goose-nosed Lighthouse has a history of more than 100 years. Before the lighthouse was built, many merchant ships were shipwrecked at the nearby Seven Star Rock Reef. Worse, survivors who escaped ashore will also suffer massacres of aboriginal people on the shore, and the Luo Fa incident and Peony Society incident caused by this incident have caused the Qing government to be under diplomatic pressure. In 1883, the Qing government built a goose nose lighthouse, which at this time was lighted with gasoline self-heating lights, projecting red arcs in the direction of Qixingyan. After the Sino-Japanese War, Taiwan Island was ceded, and the local county was ordered to secretly burn the lighthouse. Three years later, the Japanese rebuilt the lighthouse and erected the first telephone in the Hengchun area. After the second world war, the lighthouse was damaged again, and after the reconstruction, the lamps evolved into large electric lights, which was the most powerful lighthouse in Taiwan at that time, known as the "East Asian Light".
