Tiger Head Mountain Introduction
Originally named Huyou, 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, with a mountain shape resembling a fierce tiger howling upwards. From the summit, one can enjoy a panoramic view of Tongxiao, where the sky meets the sea. In the past, "Huyou Viewing Tides" was regarded as the top scenic spot in Tongxiao. Hutoushan features several historical sites, including the Taiwan Restoration Memorial Monument, ancient cannons, a shrine, and the Shou Gong Temple. The ancient cannons were left over from the Japanese colonial period and are said to have participated in the Russo-Japanese War, representing the most advanced yellow explosive artillery of the time. The eco-park on the mountain combines natural scenery with ecological conservation, making it a great place for leisure and outdoor activities.
