Andong Tunnel
安東坑道
A large wartime tunnel in central Dongyin Island, with barracks and observation openings. Its exit at the far end opens onto a sea cliff where seabirds can be observed.
Andong Tunnel lies in the central part of Dongyin Island. It was dug in 1968 and is more than 500 meters long, with many branches. Inside, there were once sleeping quarters, a clinic, kitchens and ammunition depots, enough to house large numbers of troops on long-term duty. The exit at the far end opens onto a sea cliff, where you can observe seabirds nesting on the cliff face and the vast sea. The tunnel is open roughly 08:00–17:00 and admission is free. It is dark and damp inside, so wear non-slip shoes. It is about 10 minutes by car from Dongyin Pier.
