白虎山就位於香港邊界中凸出的部分,乃戰略要地。山上有一個二戰時日軍興建的碉堡,現距今大約有80年歷史,炮台空間窄小,可容納4至5人但不能企直,從碉堡內望出去是深圳的方向。據附近村民憶述,村民當年曾被日軍強迫協助興建此炮台。

Synopsis: Local Blues musician Tomii Chan and Er-hu player Lee Ka-him evoke moments of hardship at the borderland with soulful music in this remanent wartime site.
Pak Fu Shan is located at the frontier with commanding height and thus strategic value. A fort was built at the hilltop during the Japanese occupation 80 years ago. The fort has narrow spaces just enough for 4 to 5 persons and it is oriented toward the Shenzhen side. The villagers recalled being forced by the Japanese soldiers to work on the construction of the fort.
