[Chiayi Attractions] East Shishou Island Baishui Lake, Moses Divide the Sea, the most beautiful sea-view toilets, water houses, and the peculiar landscape of subsidence.

The Shou Island of Baishui Lake in Dongshi, Chiayi has become so lively. It was seen by more people because of the movie "Vanishing Valentine's Day", which drove a large number of tourists to chase the show. Those who came here for the first time found it extremely novel. Due to problems such as stratum subsidence and sea water intrusion, the residents who originally lived here were relocated, leaving behind many old houses and fish farms. After many years, they became the water we see now. Houses, sea-view toilets, Moses’ Sea and other secret spots are really strange and lovely spots!

Dongshishou Island｜Baishui Lake

Baishui Lake Shoudao is not a lake, nor is it an island. The origin of the name of Baishui Lake comes from the sight of the salt field becoming a white wave every time the sea is inverted. At present, there is no salt industry in this area. Residents are mostly engaged in oyster farming. We have also seen a lot of oyster shells along the way. If you come to Chiayi Dongshi to play, you can also taste the famous oysters here.

Dongshishou Island｜Tide Table

If you want to see the Chiayi version of Moses Sea, the road surface is submerged by sea water, you can only watch it at high tide. If it comes during low tide, you can see the road that was originally submerged by the sea surfaced, and many small crabs also emerged. There is a timetable for rising and falling tides on the roadside of Shoudao, you can also goOfficial website query, Or query the image below.

East Shishou Island｜Moses Sea Division

During the high tide, the original connecting road was slowly submerged by sea water, and finally the whole road was soaked in the sea water, making it impassable. If you park here, you must be careful. Don't park your car on the road below, otherwise you will get stuck in the water soon! If you bring children to play here, you must also pay attention. There is sea water outside the road. If you accidentally walk into the sea, you must pay attention to safety while watching the beautiful scenery.

The sea slowly rises, the little fish swims under your feet, and the children beside you are happy. It is a peculiar feeling that you can soak in the sea when you step on the road! The concrete pier on the road became the boundary of Moses dividing the sea. Taking pictures on it seems like standing in the sea, which is a bit unrealistic.

Dongshishou Island｜The most beautiful ocean view toilet

Near the Moses Sea, there is the most beautiful toilet known as the "first row of invincible seascapes". Everyone also lined up here to take all kinds of funny and cute photos. This squat toilet is a real toilet. It used to be in the Yuyuan industrial shed. It was abandoned but not removed after the ground subsided. Such a strange and conflicting picture makes people smile, and I want to take a picture!

"Taiwanese are really boring, this toilet can also be turned into an attraction, so many people come to take pictures?" The uncle who lined up behind us laughed, and then began to discuss with his wife how to take a group photo, after all, It's a bit funny (shame) to take a photo with a toilet in full view!

When I visited Dongshi, I found many interesting small spots. Traveling seems to be like this. Stop and go outside the busy life. After playing Shoudao, you can also go to Dongshi Fishing Port and Fisherman’s Wharf to enjoy the famous oysters. You can also go to the dreamy landmark High Heel Church (currently renovated during the epidemic). Let’s leave Chiayi on holiday!
