Located in the southern part of Gulangyu, the Sunlight Rock ( Riguangyan ) is the highest point of the island, 92.68 meters above sea level. From this vantage point you can get a bird view of the entire island through wooded foliage and over colonial rooftops, even, if you are lucky, catching a glimpse of the nearby Taiwanese Island of Jinmen. The climb up to the 40 meters wide rock is leisurely and winds through some of the nicest scenery of Gulangyu, between mansions and ancient, knarled trees.

At the foot of the hill stands the Koxinga Memorial Hall in commemoration of the great patriotic general who fought and beat the Dutch colonialists on Taiwan. Displayed in the museum are various relics of him, including his jade belt and part of his imperial robe.

Cost: RMB 70(including the museum).
