1980年代以來，台灣相繼成立墾丁等九座國家公園，其象徵意義是對於重建土地倫理意識的提昇；也保留住台灣許多自然與人文最精華的地方；而接續金門國家公園的設立，可以說是呈現了對於人文資產的重視，具有指標性的意義；也讓台灣國家公園的格局與領域更臻完整。 金門國家公園管理處依循《國家公園法》，以保育自然及人文資產、提供國民育樂和研究使用為宗旨，於84年10日18日正式成立；民國86年2月1日，金門國家公園警察隊也相繼成立。 藉由本書的導引，讓每個人在悠遊金門國家公園時，有一個整體的認識，進而讓在地人與遊客，都能與這裡的空間產生新的對話，並有美好的體驗。我們相信：只要來過金門，就會牽繫著難忘的回憶與情感！而這些與歷史過程緊密相連的史蹟、豐富鮮活的自然生態，也因此得到尊重與疼惜。
Since 1980, nine national parks have been respectively established, which as a whole serves significant efforts of Taiwan Government in raising public awareness of land ethics. While these parks have preserved much of the essence of Taiwan’s natural and cultural values, the establishment of Kinmen National Park, a milestone that stands for an advanced effort, further placed an increasing emphasis on cultural heritage preservation; it expands Taiwan’s national park system into a grander dimension. We wish this book guides you well during your visit to Kinmen National Park, and, by presenting a comprehensive overview, offers you an extensive experience and facilitates the understanding of our Park. With this guide book, we hope both residents and visitors would be able to carry on an intimate conversation with this island. We believe you will have fond memories and great impressions of Kinmen, and therefore Kinmen’s historic heritage and its ecological and environmental assets could show their inestimable values and be well cherished.
