Tamsui Seadrome |
The airport is the first, and one of the few, well-preserved riverside airport in northern Taiwan. It is located on the tip of Bi-Tou Cape and faces the mouth of the Tamsui River. With historical value added to its landscape design, the airport creates a unique fusion of architecture and nature. The patterns and structure of stones between the runway and the apron of the airport offer a glimpse into the engineering technology of Taiwan in the 1940s.
