Lovers' Lake Park and the Dawulun Gun Emplacement
The Dawulun Gun Emplacement, about 10 minutes drive from Lovers' Lake, used to be an important bastion of western Keelung. The Ching Dynasty deployed soldiers here during the Opium War between China and the United Kingdom in 1840 and during the Sino-French War in 1884. The emplacement is now listed as one of Taiwan's second-class historical sites. The high altitudes of the emplacement make it a perfect site for sightseeing. |
