Puzhou Fort

Puzhou Fort

Puzhou Fort is a National Key Cultural Relics Protection Unit.

Puzhou Fort is located on the southeastern ridge of Puzhou Mountain in Lujing Village, Nansha Subdistrict, Nansha District, Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province, facing Dajiao Mountain Fort to the south. It was originally built in the 11th year of the Guangxu reign during the Qing Dynasty (1885). The total area covers approximately 769.55 square meters. The original gatehouse of Puzhou Fort has been destroyed and has since been rebuilt. Three gun emplacements remain, which are typical rear-loading gun emplacements; the cannons themselves have been lost. Emplacement No. 1 is fan-shaped, while Nos. 2 and 3 are circular. A gun passage connects the emplacements, and ammunition storage rooms are located within the passage. In 1997, maintenance work included repairs to the emplacements, gatehouse, and gun passage. Another round of repairs was carried out in 2008. It is one of the main surviving sections of the Humen Forts. The fort bears witness to the Chinese people’s resistance against imperialist invasion and holds significant importance in the historical narrative of China’s national rejuvenation. It possesses great historical, artistic, and scientific value. In February 1982, it was incorporated into the “Humen Forts” and designated as a National Key Cultural Relics Protection Unit.
