Dawulun Fort Introduction
- Attraction Introduction - As you walk along the tree-lined path, you will reach the top of the mountain where the worn and solemn ruins of the fortress come into view, telling the historical memories that date back to the Japanese era. On reaching the height and looking around, the magnificent view of the North Coast is fully visible, prompting one to imagine the soldiers of the past standing their ground to protect the harbor. - Attraction Features - The strategic peak of Dawulun Mountain once served as an important observation point during the First Opium War.

Standing atop the mountain, you can enjoy the lush green hills and the blue coastline, where the richness of history and natural beauty intertwine, making it an excellent place for relaxation and sightseeing. - Recommended Activities - It is recommended to leisurely stroll along the shaded pathways, exploring the three fortress sites, ammunition depots, barracks, and other historical traces. After reaching the summit, find a place to sit and enjoy the beautiful scenery where mountains and sea come together. If time permits, consider heading to Dawulun Mountain to reach the peak of the minor 100 peaks and appreciate the coastal view from even higher up! - Surrounding Recommendations - After touring the Dawulun Fortress, you might consider visiting Lover's Lake Park to enjoy the beautiful green lake scenery. Take a stroll on the Lover's Bridge or capture memories at the fortress observation deck, making these beautiful moments a part of your journey.
