WHAMPOA
埔黄 Whang-po
This village was formerly the seat of a large portion of the foreign trade with Canton, as foreign sailing vessels are not allowed to go farther up the Pearl River. The trade in sailing vessels has, however, dwindled to very small proportions, and Whampoa is now almost deserted. Occasionally steamers lighten their cargoes here to unable them to proceed up river to Canton. A branch of the Maritime Customs is stationed here. The large mud docks formerly belonging to the Hongkong and Whampoa Dock Com- pany were sold to the Chinese Government and have since been used for the gunboat squadron. A Government Torpedo School has been established here.
The village, known as Bamboo Town, is a dirty and unattractive place without any feature of interest, but the scenery around is picturesque and pleasing. Two lofty pagodas on neighbouring eminences are conspicucus objects from the river. The first of these, called the Whampoa Pagoda, is built on an island rising abruptly from the river to the height of 100 feet. It was erected about the year 1598, and is very much out of repair. A good-sized tree grows from the brickwork at the summit. The other pagoda, called the First Bar Pagoda, is nearer to Canton, and occupies a hill which is considered the guardian hill of the province. It was built between the years 1621 and 1628 as a palladium to the waterway of the provincial capital.
