👍👍 The name of Fortress Mountain comes from the fact that the Japanese had set up three cannons here in the past to defend against the anti-Japanese insurgents. This place is about 90 meters above sea level in Taichung City. Although it is a hilly terrain, it is not suitable for defensive fortification... People often mention Taichung,

    The name of Fortress Mountain comes from the fact that the Japanese had set up three cannons here in the past to defend against the anti-Japanese insurgents. This place is about 90 meters above sea level in Taichung City. Although it is a hilly terrain, it is not suitable for defensive fortifications. In other words, the strategic nature is self-evident. From the historical context, Dadun Street began to develop during the Qianlong period and was merged into Taichung Street. During the evolution of the entire economic prosperity, it continued to develop and grow. In addition, there are large department stores and Yizhong Night Market business district in the surrounding area. The historical value here is particularly meaningful. According to the existing Taichung City cultural assets data, the triangulation standard point was set up here during the Taiwan land survey in the 32nd year of the Japanese rule in Meiji (1899), and it was included in the scope when Taichung Park opened in the 36th year of the Meiji period (1903); in the 40th year of the Meiji period (1907) A bronze statue commemorating Governor Gentaro Kodama was built here. More than 200 years of development, from the initial development to economic prosperity and military stronghold, have shown the historical value of this place.

    Maybe more people will be interested in giving it the title of the mountain with the lowest altitude.

    There is a Javanese Albizia tree here. It is a large and beautiful tree. Especially the flowers of the Albizia tree are quite strange like xylophone sticks... and there is a stone that looks like a crocodile next to it!

    It is recognized as a third-class triangular point. The important point is that this place is the origin of Taiwan’s cadastral survey triangle.

    Have dinner at 90 meters above sea level around 4pm In the front is the main lantern of the 2003 Taichung Lantern Festival, the "Big White Goat", and in the back is the "Monument to the Anti-Japanese Soldiers". It is really a wonderful place😏

    Fortress Hill is the commanding height of Taichung Park. There are two triangular points or survey points. I only found this one. I will look for the other one next time!

    (Translated by Google) There is a very tall tree, so the lower part is cool and very pleasant. The sound of birds chirping and leaves blowing in the wind puts my mind at ease. If you are a person who has been living a tiring day in a dense city, taking a 5-minute break here will be a healing time for you to find peace. (Original) 아주 큰 나무가 있어서 아래부분이 선선하고 굉장히 쾌적합니다. 새 지저귀는 소리와 바람에 잎사귀 날리는 소리에 마음이 편안해져요. 빽빽한 도시에서 지친 일상을 지내던 분이시라면 이 곳에서 5분만 휴식을 취하셔도 평온이 찾아오는 힐링시간이 되지 않을까 합니다.

    A pavilion in Taichung Park is located on a high place, from which you can view Taichung Park! You need to walk up some small steps to go up.
