EP90 Kinmen | The Nine Spirit Master

from Bao Island Storyteller: Journey to the West

Episode 90 takes us to Kinmen — the island that sat on the front line between Taiwan and the mainland for decades. Inside the Zhaishao Military Tunnel, soldiers carved through solid granite by hand over six years, creating an underground harbor where the sea water reflects light onto the cave walls in eerie silence. At Juguang Tower, built in 1952 to honor fallen soldiers, we look out over the strait toward the lights of Xiamen. Over crispy oyster fritters, crumbly peanut candy, and slices of Kinmen's famous beef jerky, we meet the enemy Sun Wukong cannot defeat — and learn that sometimes the only way through is finding the person who has a relationship with the problem.Location: Jincheng Township, KinmenFood: Oyster Fritter | Peanut Candy | Beef Jerky
