The best viewpoint for overlooking the entire panorama of Nanao is located at the top of the mountain above Qidong in Nanao. There is a large rock inscribed with the words "East Sea Heroic Wind." According to the Dongyin Township Records, in the spring of 1956, the garrison's East Sea guerrillas patrolled the coastal defense in a small boat when they encountered several enemy ships invading the waters. Courageously repelling the attackers and returning triumphantly, the commanding officer, pleased with his smaller force overcoming a larger one, inscribed the words "East Sea Heroic Wind" to commemorate their bravery. Standing at the summit, one can enjoy a panoramic view of Nanao Village and the Zhongzhu Harbor area, making it a scenic spot with unobstructed views. It is the only highland position on Dongyin Island that is open to the public and offers a 360-degree view of the entire island.

East Sea Vigor Introduction

The best vantage point overlooking the panorama of Nan'ao is located on the mountain above Qidong in Nan'ao. There is a giant boulder inscribed with the words "East China Sea Heroic Wind." According to the Dongyin Township Gazetteer, in the spring of 1956, a patrol boat from the East China Sea Guerrilla Unit, stationed on the island, encountered several enemy vessels intruding into the waters. They bravely fought them off and returned triumphantly. The commanding officer, pleased with their victory against overwhelming odds, inscribed the words "East China Sea Heroic Wind" to honor their valor. Standing atop the mountain and looking down, one can enjoy a panoramic view of Nan'ao Village and the Zhongzhu Port area, taking in the beautiful scenery in its entirety. This is the only open high ground on Dongyin Island where one can enjoy a 360-degree view of the whole island.
