The remainder of Ancient City Wall was Shuncheng Gate, which was the little west gate next to the main gate of Magong City Wall built in the Guangxu Period of Ching Dynasty and was also the preservative part of the city wall built in Ching Dynasty. The conservation is still fine. In 1885, the period of the war between China and France, France Army has ever invaded Taiwan for three times but not successful, so they led six warships to attack and occupy Pengfu. The first Chief of Taiwan Province, Liumingchuan considered that Pengfu is the key location of South and North Ocean due to the lesson learned from the war between China and France. Furthermore, the Commander-in-chief, Wuhongluo, supervised and built Magong City wall in 1887 and completed the construction in 1889. Magong City Wall is the only castle after Pengfu has established the government for more than 160 years. In the period of Japan-control, the government dismantled the city wall at the south of the city and the seaside in the southeast in order to build Makung Port. After that, the north and east city walls were demolished due the City plan. The scope of the present city wall is about 700 meters, which is the one-fourth of the original one.

There were six gates originally; they were East, West, South, North, Little West and Little East Gates. During Japanese Occupation, East, South, North and Little East Gates have been dismantled continually and only remained West and Little West Gates (Shuncheng Gate). Little West Gate is a single-ridge style. There are city walls and bridle ways remained at the side of the City Gate. It has been repaired for many times since Japanese Occupation and has lost its original appearance. Afterwards it was designated as historic monuments and appeared its former appearance through the assistance of the specialists and the scholars. The perimeter of Magong Castle is about 2610 meters with the height of 6 meters and the thickness of 8 meters. The city wall of it is the thickest one in Taiwan. The flat surface seems like a flat melon, long in east-and-west direction and short in south-and-north. The construction of Magong was built by surrounding Magong City. The finish of this construction strengthens the military function; besides, the whole block and streets were also inside the castle.
At first, the government office was located at Wenao, which is with the distance of several miles from Magong; as a result, the government moved Wenao General Office to Magong Castle and made the union of the military center, the economy center and the politic center in Makung City.
