Hengchung North Gate

Attractions along Hengchun Beinan Historic Trail

The South Gate of Hengchun old town is also known as "Mingdu Gate". Hengchun is located at the southernmost tip of the Hengchun Peninsula. In the northeast, there are Laofo Mountain, Menmaluo Mountain and other mountains adjacent to Manzhou Township. The name, Hengchun, came about in December 1874, when the Qing viceroy Shen Baozhen came to Taiwan for the Mudanshe incident. He came and saw the crops stay “green and abundant” year-round, and so he named the area Hengchung (always spring). Since then Hengchung replaced the original name, “Longkjouw”.
