NOTE 1: There are SO many districts in west Kaohsiung that it felt like one article for each district was enough. I usually include two or three if possible, but I think that given the relative homogeneity of these districts one each is enough for an overall picture of west Kaohsiung.
NOTE 2: Where IS downtown Kaohsiung, really? Once upon a time Kaohsiung City was found inside Kaohsiung County, and it was much easier to tell where downtown was. In my opinion downtown Kaohsiung starts in Zuoying (#16 above) and ends in Lingya (#21 above). I consider the Jungshan Freeway (#1) to be the eastern boundary of downtown.
1. This happens a lot in areas under development. Developers and members of local governments begin eyeing local cemeteries with the intent to "put that land to better use." Many of the tombs in such places are, by the way, already empty. Relatives often place mortal remains inside the tomb for only a short time, and then relocate these mortal remains to a crematorium or ossuary.
2. This makes sense given the accelerated rate of real estate development in the area. Many people are buying apartments in Ciaotou, and there is a lot of incentive to "influence" local government workers with respect to land deals.
3. It's a situation similar to Hong Kong's, minus the communist overlords. The district is relatively large, but a lot of it is taken up by Shou Mountain, where the Kaohsiung Zoo is located. It's also close to a major port, has a high population density, and has a long history of development. In short, there isn't a lot of space for new buildings there. A ping, by the way, is equivalent to 3.306 square meters.
4. Qijin is an island on the seaward side of Kaohsiung Port. Was it always an island? I'm not sure. But yeah, pretty much anything going into Qijin has to cross the port to get there. The island receives its drinking water through an underground pipe.
5. The "yan" in "Yancheng" comes from salt, which was dried in that area. Fishing and shipbreaking were other important local industries that have since passed away. Yancheng is on the Kaohsiung Port across from Qijin, and the Pier 1 Arts Center draws a lot of people to the area.
6. As far as I can tell there is no "Matsu Port" to accompany Matsu Port Bridge. I assume it's a reference to either part of Kaohsiung Port or something that exists no longer.
7. What the hell is a "Qingshuiyan?" It's a temple complex in Linyuan, connected to a system of trails. The name comes from a spring that was found in the area long ago.
