Zhentoushan Lookout, Baihe District, Tainan, Taiwán
From the Baihe River or the nearby alluvial plains to the direction of Guanzi Mountain, you can see a hill shaped like a pillow. It is a pillow mountain. Because of the mining and rain erosion, there are three very large erosion marks on the cliff surface. Obviously, some people call it three dragons; this hill is composed of limestone, which is the lenticular limestone of the argillaceous sandstone. The upward end (the tip end) is mostly cut off due to the mining. It is a limestone body that protrudes from the surrounding muddy sandstone and resembles a pillow. Therefore, it is called Pillow Hill. This limestone is a bioclastic limestone containing fossils of coral, shellfish and other creatures.
