White Jade Hill is in the center of Lushun, as the ideal vantage point to have a view over Lushun Port. It has a cable car on its main side, a winding road along its slopes and a small footpath leading from the base to its top through a forest. The Baiyu Tower atop the hill was originally "The Loyalty Tower" built by Japanese troops to flaunt their military strength and to commemorate their own comrades killed in the war between Japan and Russia. Today it has become a tourist vista, which provides a panoramic view of the city. Looking below from the tower, Lushun's strategic location comes clearly into sight.



In the northeastern part of Lushun are undulating hills, where the main Russian fortifications were constructed. Bullet and shell-holes along the northern fortification on the Eastern Jiguan (Cockscomb) Hill are still distinct today and visitors can walk inside the large entrenchment constructed with reinforced cement.
