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.

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.”
