Flower Islet is situated at the northwest partially southwards of Wangan Island with a distance of 18 kilometers which is the extreme west islet in Pengfu (also the extreme west location in Taiwan). The landform here is similar to other islets in Pengfu; however, the geology is widely different from others. The geology is composed of andesite, which is the same with Mainland China and a part of it.  People could see the legendary left stamp of ¡§Deity Foot¡¨, a pair of the right stamp of ¡§Deity Foot¡¨ on Tiantai Mountain, on the reef of marine abrasion located at the southeast side of Flower Islet on ebb. There are three stone pagodas named ¡§Santagong¡¨ in Tianhu Temple, they were built to guard the Spirits of Mountains and to protect people from danger all around.  On the hillside Northwestwards is Huayu Lighthouse. It was built by Japanese in 1939 and altered to use with acetylene photoflash of 2600 W, sparkling every five minutes with the visible distance of 21 sea miles.
