Yuntai Mountain
雲台山
The highest point on Nangan. A military information hall at the summit displays wartime history, and on clear days you can look across to the Huangqi Peninsula in Lianjiang, Fuzhou, on the mainland.
Yuntai Mountain rises about 248 meters above sea level and is the highest point of Nangan Island. The summit was once a military restricted zone. It is now open, with a viewing platform and the “Military Intelligence Hall,” which displays Matsu’s defense history and models. From the viewing platform you can see 360 degrees across all of Nangan, Jinsha settlement and Beigan. On clear days you can make out the Huangqi Peninsula in Lianjiang, Fuzhou, across the water on the mainland. You can ride a scooter or drive straight up. It is open roughly 08:00–17:00 and admission is free. Take care not to photograph nearby military facilities.
