Magellan's "Age of Exploration" is a well-known geographical tale, and Western antique ships are significant historical witnesses; the Spanish "Andalucía" (Galeon Andalucia), modeled after a 17th-century "galleon," has been traveling around many countries since March this year and is currently on display at the Spain Pavilion of the Shanghai Expo. It will arrive at the beautiful Su'ao Port in Taiwan this week to revive the charm of the olden days.
The "Age of Exploration" holds epoch-making significance.
The voyage route of the replica ship follows the course from over 300 years ago, departing from Seville, Spain, passing through the Mediterranean Sea, the Red Sea, and the Indian Ocean, making stops in Malta, Israel, Egypt, Sri Lanka, Singapore, and other locations. After more than five months, it arrived in Shanghai for the Expo exhibition. After concluding its visit to Taiwan, it will return to Spain along the original route.
The "Andalucía" is modeled after the 17th-century galleon "Galleon."
The "Andalucía" is expected to sail for three days and will arrive at Su'ao Port in Yilan on the 17th. The public is welcome to visit Wushi Harbor Pier during the viewing hours from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM from September 19th to 22nd, to experience the Age of Exploration together and board the ship to feel the grandeur of Western colonial-era vessels.
