Shoushan National Forest Park
首山国家森林公园
A famous hill northeast of the old town, with a Ming dynasty beacon tower and a lookout tower at the summit that overlook Xingcheng, the Bohai Sea and Juehua Island.
Shoushan lies about 4 km northeast of Xingcheng's old town, rises about 330 meters, and is a national forest park. The hill isn't very tall, but its forests are dense. Hiking trails lead to the Ming dynasty beacon tower and a lookout tower at the summit, with views over Xingcheng's old town, the seaside and Juehua Island in the Bohai Sea. In the late Ming dynasty, this hill served as a military lookout outside Ningyuan City. The round trip to the top takes about 2 to 3 hours, which makes it a good workout in the early morning or evening. Admission policies follow the park's announcements. In summer, bring sunscreen and water.
