Citi Triangle Fortress

Having been transformed from a military symbol to a cultural one, the Citi Triangle Fortress is now a birdwatching paradise in Kinmen. But back in 2003, when the fortress was just handed over to Kinmen National Park, the coastline was still lined with land mines, and it is literally a forbidden zone where only sisal could be seen.

The Citi Triangle Fortress hidden by camouflage reveals the hardships that the soldiers previously stationed here had to go through, where the punishing winter wind on the rooftop is almost unbearable and the scorching summer sun is literally eye blinding due to the flatlands of Kinmen. These unknown heroes may remain unnamed, but their contributions to the country are never silent with these dilapidated buildings standing as a mute testament to the war's devastation.

Because of the ammunition shortage at the time, it was clearly stated in the fortress that every single fire must be precisely aimed at the enemies. On the beach outside the fortress, there are six tanks with their muzzles pointing towards the ocean, as if it were a declaration of sovereignty. Today, all these military establishments have been transformed into tourist attractions, but wandering among them still gives a nostalgic look at the wartime history of Kinmen when selfless soldiers unconditionally fought for their homeland.
