Rushan Old Fort Introduction
The Rushan Historic Site is connected to the Sun Yet-sen Memorial Forest. Through revitalization by the national park, the original military facilities have been transformed into historical sites with educational and tourism value. The area preserves the defensive works of the stationed troops, recreating the authentic appearance of the battlefield years in Kinmen. Walking into the forest trails, one is greeted by bunkers and shelters hidden among the Casuarina trees. Inside the facilities, there are multiple wax figures of soldiers holding various weapons, with serious expressions and lifelike postures, as if still on duty. Important military sites such as the command post and the anti-airborne fortress are presented in their original form, combined with sound and light effects to recreate wartime situations, providing an immersive experience. The Rushan Historic Site is not just a static military relic but an outdoor exhibition hall where one can gain a deeper understanding of Kinmen's defense history and wartime culture. Whether you are a military enthusiast, a history buff, or a family traveler wanting to introduce children to local history, you can find rich experiences and inspiration here.
