Baimiwong emplacement is located in the northwest of Keelung harbor, safeguarding the harbor with the gun emplacement on the east shore. It was an important military base since the Qing dynasty. The rectangle-shaped gun emplacement facing the sea is comprised of three sections: barbette, control center, and observation station. The control center is on the west of the barbette and the observation station is on the right. Both places are great choices for visitors to overlook Keelung Harbor. The scenery is refreshing and beautiful; hence, it has become a popular sightseeing and leisure place for local residents. Find a nice summer evening to enjoy the lights on boats in the harbor, the bright stars, and the breeze.
