Zhongyang Island (Traditional Chinese: 中央嶼), also known as Da Yang Island,[1] is referred to by the locals in Xiyu Township as Nanpei-zi[1] (in Taiwanese Hanzi: 𡳞脬仔, in Taiwanese Romanization: lān-pha á), because its island shape resembles male genitalia. It is an island in Magong City,[2] Penghu County,[1] Taiwan, with an area of approximately 0.0116 square kilometers,[3] making it the smallest island in Magong City.[4] Located about 600 meters northeast of Jianshanjiao in Shee Way Township,[5] the highest point is approximately 11 meters high. During low tide, it can be accessed by wading from Jianshanjiao in Shee Way Township.[6]
