The Penghu Cross-Sea Bridge is a well-known local landmark. However, on August 25th, a video circulated online that made many shake their heads. A man in a white shirt was seen climbing the arch of the cross-sea bridge with his bare hands, happily giving a 'YA' sign at the top while his friends below filmed him. After the video went viral, it sparked widespread condemnation from netizens, who criticized the behavior as 'extremely uncivilized' and 'embarrassing'.
The Penghu County Cultural Affairs Bureau has strongly condemned this act. In fact, the Penghu Cross-Sea Bridge was registered as a 'historical building' as early as 2003. The tourist's actions are suspected of violating the 'Cultural Heritage Preservation Act'. If the historical building is damaged, the offender could face a hefty fine of NT$300,000 to NT$2,000,000! The police are currently reviewing footage to identify the individual involved.
📌 A Guide to 'Safe Travel and Cultural Respect' for New Residents and Foreign Friends:
Taiwan boasts rich history, culture, and natural landscapes. To ensure every trip is filled with wonderful memories and to demonstrate good civic virtue, we remind new residents and migrant workers in Taiwan to pay attention to the following points when traveling:
Respect Local Cultural Heritage: When visiting historical sites, temples, or historical buildings, please do not climb, step on, graffiti, or damage them arbitrarily. Every historical trace deserves our collective protection.
Heed and Obey Warning Signs: When traveling, please pay close attention to surrounding signs (such as no entry, no food or drink, no photography, etc.). 'When in Rome, do as the Romans do' and comply with the regulations set by the management authorities.
Refuse Dangerous Trend-Following Behavior: Do not engage in dangerous, illegal, or socially offensive actions for the sake of shooting short videos, gaining traffic, or 'making a presence.' When you are out, your behavior also represents the image of your hometown!
