Salt Mountain














The Cigu Salt Mountain, or Qigu Yanshan, is both a postcard image for the area and an entertainment site. This quirky place may give you little background into the salt industry, but it’s worth seeing just for how bizarre it is. The mountain itself is a two hectare mound of salt left over from the Taiwan Salt Corporation’s Cigu Salt Fields. It is climbable, and the surrounding view of the ever-flat area surrounding it is enjoyed by busloads of aged tourists on a daily basis. Steps have been carved into the hard salt to make for easy climbing.

Address

No. 66, Yancheng Village, Qigu District, Tainan City
