Kaohsiung Travel website

The Kaohsiung Martyrs' Shrine was originally the Japanese-built “Takao Kotohira Shrine”, but was rebuilt, with the addition of a mountain gate, main hall, the front hall, corridor and pavilion, with golden glazes tiles traditionally used Chinese temples, filled with a solemn, imposing atmosphere. The Martyrs' Shrine is surrounded by ancient pines, a quiet and secluded environment. The front of the Shrine is covered in greenery, timeless, and looking down, the beautiful scenery of the harbour can be seen- the Shrine has already become the best place for tourists to take in the varied elegance of Kaohsiung during the day and at night.
