As a circular mountain covering an area of 0.14 square kilometers, its history can be traced back to the volcanic lake of about 11,000 square meters 52 million years ago. Tourists can stand on the viewing platform to view the ancient volcanic site closely. The top of the hill is the highest point of Chancheng District.


The volcano tens of thousands of years ago is now a beautiful scenic spot. Citizens can jog, cycle here, and enjoy the fresh air in the city.
