The most distinctive feature is the basalt wall on the west side, with an underground water pool in front. The Penghu Hall Gendarmerie was originally the Penghu Garrison Command in the Qing Dynasty, established during the Kangxi era (1684). In Guangxu 15 (1889), when the Garrison Command was changed to the Tongpan Yamen, only necessary repairs were made to the existing buildings, and a prison and a charity office were added next to the command; it was not until the Japanese colonial period, during the Taisho (1962) and Showa 6 (1931) years, when it was converted into the Penghu Hall Gendarmerie Branch, that significant renovations were made, giving it its current appearance. In the Republic of China era after August 15, 1945 (1945), it served as the barracks for the transportation group of the Penghu Defense Command until 1958 (1958).
