麻豆港碼頭遺蹟

The busy and prosperous days of the past are long gone, and now it is fascinating to be able to think about the grand occasion of the year only with the rebuilt pier.

Ruins of Madou Port In the early days, Madou was a settlement of the Pirapu Silaya people. Because it was located on the side of the windward inner seaport, it was convenient for shipping. In the 17th century, it began to interact frequently with the outside world. Chinese pirates, Japanese pirates, Dutch, and The Han immigrants arrived in Madou and exported buckskin and sugar through the port. They also imported new civilizations and opened a new page of the history of Madou. Madou Port is located in Suiboritou, and there are still remains of the pier. It is made of a triad of sugar, sugar, and glutinous rice juice, and then mixed with ash and sand. It should be the main sugar export port during the Dutch period. The Dutch occupied Taiwan for the benefit of economy and trade, strongly encouraged the development of sugarcane fields, and exported the manufactured sugar to Japan and Persia. At that time, Madou was an important source of sugar, and there were a lot of sugar bowls. So far, there are still names related to sugar bowls such as Laozhai, Shiliu, and Zhudi. Since the Qianlong period, most of the downwind inland sea has been overburdened by land, the waterway has become clogged, and the function of Madou Port has been lost. It has become a desolate field.

Passed by during the epidemic period and did not enter the park. Just take a few photos along the side of the road, dry up the pool. Overgrown with weeds, I saw a few flying birds perching.

The park is clean and tidy and you can barbecue, but there are piles of weeds and branches in the ancient port.

I once heard a lecture by Professor Liu Yichang "Culture Assets" ～ ; At noon on the weekend, Visit, seemingly humble and ordinary park, It ’s unbelievable that it is, Rivers and docks of the Qing dynasty more than 200 years ago. #Archaeological remains confirm Taiwan's human history

It is said that this is the route of the ancient passageway. It is now properly planned as a relic, but it is well preserved, but it is not very famous. Many foreign friends gather here and fish, but it is really beautiful to walk alone.

Sugar was made here in the early days. The wharf. The waterway was used to transport sugar.
