About Sindu Hang Lighthouse
Also known as: Sindu Hang (Uihangri)
Sindu Hang is a cylindrical concrete lighthouse standing 16 meters tall, painted green. It is situated on a reef at the entrance to Sindu harbor in South Korea's South Chungcheong region. With a focal height of 11 meters, its light emits a single green flash every 5 seconds, visible for 10.7 nautical miles. The lighthouse was constructed from concrete and has a round tower shape. While the site is accessible by boat, the tower itself is closed to the public. The nearest port, Taean-gun, is 5 kilometers away.
Why it matters: Sindu Hang is essential for safely navigating the entrance to Sindu harbor, directly marking a reef that poses a significant hazard to shipping.
