The Beigan Chin-Bi Settlement, also known as the “Matsu Mediterranian,” has one of the most well-preserved examples of traditional Eastern Min architecture on the island.
The ancient city leans against the mountain in a terraced arrangement and faces the blue sea. There, you can go for a cup of coffee or brunch and feel as if you were watching the Mediterranean sea.

In the evening, you may wish to head to the Nangan Jin-Sha Settlement and take a stroll on the beach whilst enjoying the beautiful sunset.
The Jin-Sha Tribe also maintains the traditional Eastern Min architecture of Matsu. However, compared with the Chin-Bi Settlement, it appears more desolate as vines entrench itself in the stone cracks. Go and visit this mysterious ruins and enjoy the adventure.
