Qixing Mountain, also spelled Qixingshan or Chihsing Mountain, is a mountain in Beitou District, Taipei, Taiwan. It is located on the Datun Volcano Group and is the highest mountain in the city, at the rim of Taipei Basin. It is also the highest volcano in Taiwan. It is located in the center of Yangmingshan National Park and its main peak is 1,120 metres above sea level.It began erupting about 700,000 years ago. There was a crater at the peak but it became seven small peaks due to post-eruption erosion. The mountain has faults running across the southeast and northwest contours with volcanic landforms like hot springs and fumaroles. Shamao Mountain is a round volcanic dome looking like a black gauze cap. As the lava was more viscous when the mountain was formed, it gradually became a tholoid, also known as a cumulo-dome volcano, it's 643 metres above sea level. Shamaoshan and Qigushan are parasitic volcanoes of Qixingshan. This mountain is the source of the name for Shichisei District , Taihoku Prefecture, Taiwan under Japanese rule. This district included modern day Xizhi, Shilin, Beitou, Nangang, Neihu, Songshan, and Xinyi.
