White lighthouse, commonly known as "white lighthouse", is an international lighthouse. It was founded in 1929 by Kaohsiung Fisheries Association during the Japanese occupation. The height is 10 meters from the base to the top of the lighthouse, 88 meters from the horizontal to the lighthouse, and the luminosity range is 20 km, which is the fourth flash. During the Japanese occupation, there were three Japanese Navy garrisons here. One of them was falsely accused of seducing women outside and stealing chickens to eat. As a result, he was executed by the superior of the Japanese army and buried under the lighthouse with his white monkey. But the place began to be restless, and the white monkey had the essence of the sun and moon. But at that time, the top of the mountain was no longer a resident. In recent years, the descendants who moved to Daliao at that time built a small temple in the south of the lighthouse to worship their ancestors. The Japanese army and the white monkey were also sacrificed to the side as vindication and compensation.
