Qinfen Fort Introduction

Located behind the Longshan Temple on Zhongshan Road, the Xunfeng Cannon Fort was an early fortress established to guard the critical mouth of the Fengshan Creek as it flows into the sea, vital for trade and the migration from Fujian and Guangdong. Today, only the cannon fort remains. The fort's walls have a curved shape and are primarily constructed from granite and pebbles. Decorative mud sculptures of scrolls are embedded in the stone walls, adding an artistic touch to the sturdy fort.
