Ape Hill

Ape Hill is located at western side of Kaohsiung, Taiwan, to the north of the main entrance to Kaohsiung Harbor. It was so named by the Dutch in the 17th century to describe many monkeys on this mountain. It is called Chai Shan (Zhasvoaf) now, and actually includes the Snake Hill (a 17th century term) in its northern part, and Long Life Hill (named by Japanese in 1911-1915 for the crown-prince Hirohito) in the southern part. In some old maps, the peak of the hill is called Saracen's Head.
