In recent years, many of Shanghai's landmarks have attracted tourist attention, especially the Bund and Disneyland. When the city gains a lot of income from tourism, Shanghai's GDP will also increase. As one of the most important cities on the mainland, Shanghai does not have many mountains. In addition to the known Sheshan Mountain, Target Mountain has also become one of the mountains that many tourists want to explore. But the mountain has become a forbidden area, what is going on?
Target Hill gradually became a forbidden area
Compared with other buildings in Shanghai, the advantage of Target Mountain is almost zero, and even people only think of it as a small hill. It is such a seemingly inconspicuous hill in the urban area, but it carries a piece of history. After the 813 Incident, Japanese troops occupied Shanghai and began a series of unacceptable plunders, including the use of ranges under the pretext of requisition. It seems to be a requisition relationship between the two sides to reach a cooperation matter, but in fact, the Japanese side will never take money to buy the right to use the range.
With the end of World War II, Japan announced its surrender. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Shanghai became one of the fastest economically developed cities on the mainland, and the requisitioned range was located in the area of The Target Mountain, which many people thought was just a humble hill at that time, and did not make reasonable applications and planning for the mountain range.
As time passed, the relevant staff began to punish the prisoners at Target Mountain. According to local residents, they lived in the area near Target Mountain and often heard gunshots. Therefore, many timid people dare not go near the target mountain, for fear of dying here. The slightly bolder residents approached the target hill out of curiosity and then picked up some of the bullet casings left by the punishment prisoners.
Later, the housing prices near The Target Mountain have increased, and the quality of life of the local residents has become better and better, but people still cannot forget the purpose of the Target Mountain. Although the relevant departments had proposed to build the target mountain into a national park, in the end, the project was not solved.
But this also adds to the exploration and curiosity of most tourists and explorers about Target Mountain. It is rumored that when some people went to the mountain to pick up garbage, there was a landslide in the area, and the crowd of garbage collectors was not heard. In addition, after many explorers arrived at Target Mountain, they did not have a particularly good experience, so many explorers directly said that they would not want to come a second time.
It is precisely because of the many legends and mysteries in the folk that the target mountain has been valued by explorers. As for the various rumors and information circulating in the anecdotes, no specific information has been found to prove it.
However, many of the country's tourist attractions are accompanied by mysterious legends and anecdotal rumors, which will increase the probability of tourists coming to play and bring higher tourism revenue to locals. Although we have no way of judging whether the information about Target Mountain is true or false, we should respect the history and the local residents' accounts of Target Mountain.
It is worth mentioning that The Target Mountain is in stark contrast to other tourist attractions in Shanghai, which have been well repaired and publicized, but the Target Mountain is an exception. Today, the trees on the mountain are growing barbarically, but the surrounding residents have long been accustomed to it.
In general, as a city with a relatively fast economic development, Shanghai has a large number of tourist attractions in the city. After people arrive in Shanghai, in addition to enjoying the urban landscape with fashion sense and modern elements, the traditional architecture of old Shanghai is also worth viewing. Although The Target Mountain is not open to the public now, there are some daring explorers who go on expeditions, but we don't know if there will be some problems.
