An Industrial City Reborn as the Most Beautiful Harbor City

Kaohsiung is Taiwan’s second-largest city and its biggest seaport. It is renowned for its Asia New Bay Area, with its modern urban landscape and rich natural and cultural resources. Nevertheless, Kaohsiung has also retained a relatively laid-back pace throughout its transformation from a heavily industrialized city into a creative seaside metropolis.

Travel Highlights

Explore the city using the convenient Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) system, light rail, ferries, and sightseeing buses. Stroll through the Pier-2 Art Center, which was converted from a warehouse in the old harbor area; have a drink at one of the bars along the coast of Cijin; make DIY traditional oil paper umbrellas while enjoying the countryside in Meinong; and savor delicacies such as pearl milk tea and beef noodle soup. Kaohsiung also makes a perfect base for organizing a multi-day tour of Southern Taiwan, allowing you to fully experience the region’s warmth and vitality.
