The "Weiwuying National Center for the Arts" has a white wave shape like a spaceship, which is both avant-garde and unique in technology. It is a popular check-in attraction in Kaohsiung. The venue has facilities such as an opera house, a concert hall, a theater, and a performance hall. In the past, it was a military training center. Through the skillful hands of Dutch architect Francine Houben, the image of the intertwined roots and virtual and real interweaving of the banyan trees in Weiwuying was integrated into the venue design, showing Kaohsiung's unique architectural aesthetics. There is also a style selection store in the park. Pick some souvenirs full of literary and artistic atmosphere!
The "Lianchitan Dragon and Tiger Pagoda" (expected to be completed by the end of 2024 and reopened in the first quarter of 2025) was built in 1976. The 7-story tower can be entered through the dragon's mouth and exited through the tiger's mouth. The interior of the dragon tower is painted with Cochin pottery works with moral stories from famous artists. The tower body and the Nine-Curve Bridge are connected and reflected on the lake surface to form a beautiful view. It is said that there are rules for visiting the Dragon and Tiger Pagoda. You must enter from the dragon's mouth and exit from the tiger's mouth, which means "enter the dragon's throat and exit the tiger's mouth" to avoid bad luck. Climbing to the top of the tower, you can have a panoramic view of the beautiful scenery of Lianchitan.
"Formosa Boulevard Light Dome" One of the most beautiful MRT stations in the world - Kaohsiung MRT Formosa Boulevard Station is the world's largest circular underground station. The dome glass above the station hall is divided into four major blocks, representing: water - the nurturing of life, soil - prosperity and growth, light - creative spirit, and fire - destruction and rebirth.
The Pier-2 Art Center was originally a warehouse for storing fish meal and sugar in Kaohsiung Port. Today, it has become a gathering place for the development of Kaohsiung's humanities and arts, and has fully witnessed the rise and fall of the entire Kaohsiung Port. There are various art exhibitions and art installations in the park, as well as a variety of cultural and creative shops. It is very good for taking photos and strolling, waiting for you to explore!
The "Dagang Bridge" is located next to Pier-2. It is the first horizontal rotating landscape bridge in Taiwan and the longest cross-harbor rotating bridge in Asia. It connects the two popular attractions of Pier-2 Art Features and the Stack-2 Warehouse, and will perform an opening and closing show at 3 pm every day.
"Zhan Er Ku KW2" is also an old warehouse with a history of 100 years. During the restoration process, the historical elements of the old warehouse were specially preserved. You can see the walls and window sills with a sense of age, showing an atmosphere of fusion of the old and the new. The museum brings together about 50 local craftsmen, Taiwan's representative cultural and creative brands, and restaurants, such as Xiaohong Noodle Shop, Huatian Fruit Room, etc.
The British Consulate Cultural Park in Takao and the West Bay Scenic Area was built in 1879. It is the first consulate of the British government in Taiwan. It is of great historical significance and value, and is the best place to enjoy the sunset over West Lake. The park has preserved the appearance of a complete official residence, with a colonial veranda-style architecture. You can feel the torrent of history and the traces of time in the consulate. When it is close to dusk, looking east, you can see the magnificent scenery of the entire Kaohsiung Port area. Looking west, you can see the "West Lake Sunset", one of the eight scenic spots in Kaohsiung. You can also taste the large bowl of shaved ice nearby!
The most distinctive feature of the "Fo Guang Shan Buddha Memorial Hall" is the largest and tallest sitting Buddha in Asia - the Fo Guang Buddha. The park also has the Sanhao Children's Hall, the Four-Giving Pagoda Cultural Plaza, the Five-Harmony Pagoda Joy House, as well as the Buddhist Botanical Garden, the Double Loft Humanistic Space and the Tea and Zen Pavilion. The main body of Sakyamuni Buddha is enshrined in this hall. In addition to the hall, there are also permanent halls, exhibition halls, and the Great Awakening Hall that can accommodate 2,000 people. Art performances and international forums are regularly held.
The Qiaotou Sugar Factory is Taiwan's first modern mechanized sugar factory. It has a history of 100 years. After the industry declined, it is now the Taiwan Sugar Museum, where the sugar factory and other antiques are well preserved.
The "Mituo Fishing Port Coastal Light Corridor" is suitable for the whole family to come here to play and take beautiful photos. Children can play in the water while adults can watch the sea. The S-shaped wooden plank road on the water, the "Water Corridor", is the most popular check-in spot on the Internet.
