You will see a castle-like dark gray building by the highway. This is the defunct Li-yue Copper Refinery owned by Taiwan Metal Mining Corp almost covering the entire mountain wall. Due to its 13-story height, the locals call it the Thirteen Stories, the abandoned factory used to refine ore taken from Jinguashi Gold Mine.
