150-Year-Old 'Dowry' Stone Weir: 60-Day Restoration Begins at Niuxin Bay

The century-old 'Niuxin Bay Stone Weir' has partially collapsed due to wave impact. The Xiyu Township Office and the Chima community have joined forces to restore it, aiming to revive the traditional stone weir's charm and create a new axis for coastal tourism on Yuweng Island (Xiyu). The restoration project, led by Xiyu Township Mayor Li Tian-jin and others, will last 60 days. The manager, Yang Wen-can, noted that the weir dates back 150 years and was once given as a 'dowry' between families. Mayor Li emphasized the significance of this project in preserving local cultural assets.
