The best viewpoint for overlooking the panorama of Nanao is atop the Qidong Mountain in Nanao. There is a giant rock inscribed with the words "East Sea Heroic Wind." According to the Dongyin Township Chronicles, in the spring of 1956, a small boat from the East Sea Guerrilla Patrol stationed on the island encountered over a dozen enemy ships invading the maritime area. After bravely repulsing the enemies and triumphantly returning, the commander, delighted by the victory against overwhelming odds, inscribed the words "East Sea Heroic Wind" to commemorate the bravery. Standing on the mountaintop and looking down, one can admire the full view of Nanao Village and Zhongzhu Harbor, a spectacular sight that offers the only open high ground on Dongyin Island for a 360-degree panorama of the entire island.
