Hulishan Fortress is located in the prominent part of the southeast Cape of Xiamen City, Fujian Province. It is adjacent to Xiamen University Park and surrounded by the sea on three sides. It was built in 1894. It was the product of the Chinese Westernization Movement. It was divided into battlefield, barracks, back mountainous areas, built with dark paths, fences, ammunition storehouses, military halls, hilltop observation halls and so on. The structure of the fortress is semi-castle type and semi-castle type. It is made of granite strips and rammed with Cinnamomum camphor sap, Carboniferous and glutinous rice mixed with sediment. It is unusually strong. The gates, walls, towers, moats, barracks and forts made of high-quality granite remain intact. They are precious historical sites for studying the military history of coastal defence, the history of Westernization Movement and the technology of military construction in China. The whole building has the architectural style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties in Europe and China. It was called the "Eight Fujian Gate, Tiannan Key" in history. The most famous one on the Huli Mountains fort is a 28-year-old (280 mm) Khopper artillery purchased from the German Khopper Armament Factory in 1893. It is well preserved up to now. Its effective range can reach 16,000 meters (the longest range is 19760 meters). It took 100,000 silver to purchase it (including shipping and insurance premiums). It has been identified as "the oldest and largest 19th century coastal artillery on the existing site in the world" and won the greatest prize in Guinness of the world. Good project award. In 1958, the Western Fort Cannon was demolished. There are only one Eastern Fort Cannon and two Protective Cannons left.
