[WARNING] Enter inside at your own risk, please.
Around old power plant and old gas tank there are signs which say"Keep Out" maybe because of their weak skeleton and ground pollution. So I don't recommend your entry.


Poison gas plant of Japanese Army which run during 1929-1945.
 Japan produced poison gas against international law and it seems that half of the gas was used in China. After WWII US army destroyed these plants. Today we can see some buildings.
