Ke Ga Lighthouse

TIME : 2016/2/17 17:41:08

Constructed in 1899, it sits on a rocky islet some 300m from the shore, towering almost 40m above the ocean. It's just possible to swim (or even wade) across if the tide is very low, but most visitors hire a boatman (250,000d return) to get across.

A staircase winds up to the top, from where there are magnificent vistas over the ocean and inland hills.
