National Flag Hill Introduction
Guoqi Ridge, also known as Wainansijiao Mountain, has an elevation of 172 meters. The section from Fuxing Elementary School to Yuantong Temple is called the Wainansijiao Trail or Yuantong Temple Trail. At the summit, there is a pavilion, the National Flag Pavilion, with a cornerstone located beside the pavilion, entirely painted red. In the center of the small platform at the top, there is a cornerstone. The nearby hiking trails opened along the ridgeline often pass through this area. It is said that a group of retired veterans climbed to this mountain top in 1971, when Taiwan withdrew from the United Nations, to raise the national flag and built a hexagonal pavilion, naming it the National Flag Pavilion, which is why this area is also commonly referred to as Guoqi Ridge.
