Tiger Head Mountain Introduction
Originally named Tiger Island, it is located to the north of the city, facing south, and serves as a natural barrier against the northeast monsoon. With an elevation of about 93 meters, it is lush and green, resembling a fierce tiger roaring upwards. From the summit, one can enjoy a panoramic view of Tongxiao, where the sea meets the sky. In the past, "Tiger Island Viewing Tide" was ranked as the top scenic spot in Tongxiao. Hushan features four historical sites: the Taiwan Restoration Memorial, ancient cannons, a shrine, and Shougong Temple. The ancient cannons were left over from the Japanese colonial period and are said to have participated in the Russo-Japanese War, being among the most advanced yellow explosive cannons of the time. The environmental park on the mountain combines natural scenery with ecological conservation, making it an excellent place for leisure and outdoor activities.
