Shih Gam Dang Appearance: Total Height: 3.78M Circumference: 15.3M Construction Style: Conical Tower Tower Peak Ornaments: None Sa-gang village possesses extensive intertidal zones and rich marine resources. Hua-hou Tower is located on the sea near the region known as "Hua-hou," hence its name. In 1964, construction was guided by spiritual instructions channeled through the god Xuantian Shangdi (True Heaven God). Since the southern mountain ridge of the village is high and the northern terrain is flat, offering insufficient balance, this tower was built to harmonize the north-south dynamic. Additionally, a unique "wind opening" is deliberately incorporated into the stone tower design.
