Monk Reading Scripture

This landmark evokes the image of an ancient monk in deep meditation, reading scriptures by the cliffside. Whenever ships prepare to dock at Zhongzhu Port, a colossal rock formation can be seen standing majestically on the hillside of 'Fort 26' on Xiyin Island. Viewed from Zhongzhu Port looking west, it strikingly resembles a spiritual practitioner of profound discipline, utterly absorbed in reading sacred texts amidst the bustling human world, thus earning its name. The 'Monk Reading Scripture' occupies a vital strategic location. From the vantage point of Fort 26, it overlooks and safeguards Zhongzhu Port, the gateway to Dongyin, controlling the inbound and outbound movements of all types of vessels. At dusk, the sky is often ablaze with colorful clouds. Observing 'Monk Reading Scripture' from Nanao in the distance, set against the backdrop of the sunset, is even more moving and sparks limitless imagination. Note: Due to its significant strategic position in Dongyin, the 'Monk Reading Scripture' area remains a military controlled zone, and visitors are currently not permitted to enter.
