     There are two other large islands connected to Penghu by bridges - both are interesting and easy to visit. They’re called Paisha (White Sand Island) and Hsiyu (West Island). Paisha’s most famous attraction is a large banyan tree (dà róngshù or tōngliáng gǔróng) over 300 years old. Covering a huge area, the branches are supported by lattice- work, and walking under it is like walking through a cave. Paisha is connected to Hsiyu by the Kuahai Bridge (kuàhǎi dàqiáo), over five km in length and the longest in Taiwan.

     "Taiwan's Penghu Bay" is a member of the UNESCO's "The Most Beautiful Bays in the World" NGO. The 14th International Convention will be held in Penghu this year, marking an important milestone for Penghu as it leaps onto the world stage. The first ever “Penghu Chrysanthemum Island Cross-sea Marathon” was held last year and left runners full of praise for the unrivalled scenery and winding coastline of Penghu. This is also the only road race out of all road races in Penghu throughout the entire year to be a one-way race that does not circle back to the starting point, so the scenery does not get repeated along the way. The classic route begins from Siyu Township for an island-hopping, cross-sea experience, passing through Paisha Township and Husi Township, and leading back to the main island.
