Cigu Salt Mountain

say: chesse

If you mention Cigu to most people, they will invariable think of salt. Due to the area’s long history of generating salt and its current contribution of over 60% of the nations salt production, it is pretty clear why the area is so renown for this mineral substance. The tourist industry has also helped with the fame. In addition to those just coming to view and photograph the salt plains, there are a couple of tourist sites that have given a boost to Ciqu’s notoriety. The Cigu Salt Mountain and the Taiwan Salt Museum are both a fun way to learn about Taiwan’s former backbone industry.


Hi Girl

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.

The whole situation looks like the remnants of someone’s poorly thought-out idea to make the salt mountain more marketable. If a few hours at the mountain aren’t enough, there’s an island on the lagoon where you can rent barbecue space and even pitch a tent for an overnight stay. I would wager than most people just climb the salt mountain, take in the view and then leave.
