According to the last census, 191, 853 people live in Nanzih. 上次人口統計表示， 楠梓的人口是191,853人 。
This dragon sits on a bridge over the Houjin River, across from the Kaohsiung Metropolitan Park. The eastern half of this park is in Nanzih, while the western half is in Ciaotou. 這條龍位在後勁溪上都會公園對面的一座橋上 。 公園的東半部在楠梓 ， 西半部在橋頭 。
Is it worth visiting? Eh, it's just OK. If you're a runner it's a good place for that, but otherwise I wouldn't bother. 值得去嗎 ? 還好 ! 公園滿適合跑步的 ， 但其他的休閒活動的就沒那麼好了。
Not far from the dragon you'll find this Filipino restaurant. There's a large Filipino community in Nanzih, probably because of its Export Processing Zone. 離龍不遠處有這家菲律賓餐廳 ， 楠梓的菲律賓居民多，大概跟加工區有關係 。
I've eaten at the restaurant once. I'm no expert on Filipino cuisine, but I liked it. 這家餐廳我吃過一次 ， 我不是常常吃菲律賓料理， 可是我覺得這家不錯 。
At the southern end of the district is the Nanzih Export Processing Zone MRT stop. I walked all the way from here to the other side of Kaohsiung University. It was an epic walk. 楠梓區南部有楠梓加工區捷運站 ， 我從這裡走到高雄大學的另外一邊 ， 真的走很遠!
This is looking south, with Banping Mountain in the distance. The northern half of Banping Mountain is in Nanzih, while the southern half is in Zuoying. 這張照片是往南邊看的 ， 遠處有半屏山 。 半屏山北邊的一半在楠梓 ， 南邊的一半在左營 。
This is inside the Export Processing Zone. It turned out to be a surprisingly pleasant place to walk through. There were almost no cars and very few people on the sidewalks. 在楠梓加工區裡面 ， 讓我驚訝的是在這裡走路很舒服 ， 車子很少 ， 行人也不多 。
"Win-Win." I love this company's English name. "Win-Win," 我很喜歡這家公司的英文名字 。
This clock is in the center of the Export Processing Zone. 這個時鐘在加工區的中間 。
To the north of the Export Processing Zone is the residential part of Nanzih, which stretches along the Houjin River from east to west. I know this area fairly well. 加工區北邊有楠梓社區 ， 這個社區在後勁溪邊 ，沿著溪從東部延伸到西部 ， 我對這個地區比較熟 。
Storefronts along Dexian Road. Most of these apartment blocks are older, but the apartments within them are still fetching high prices. 德賢路的店面 。 這附近的公寓很舊 ， 可是價格還是一樣貴 。
The inconvenient thing about this area is the distance to the nearest MRT station. I imagine most of those living in Nanzih face a less than convenient commute to and from work, but to some extent that's just life in a big city. 住楠梓不方便的部分是捷運站比較遠 。 我想楠梓很多居民的上下班路途不是很順利， 可是這是大城市裡都會碰到的問題 。
This is the Houjin River. The residential areas near the river are much nicer, and it's further away from the factories. 這是後勁溪 ， 靠近溪岸的社區比較高級 ， 離工廠比較遠 。
This is one of the newer apartment buildings, and no, apartments here aren't cheap. This building has a great view of the river, and those living near the top can probably see all the way over to the Taiwan Strait. 比較新的公寓大樓可不便宜 。 這棟大樓有溪岸的風景 ， 高樓層的公寓可以看到台灣海峽吧 !
Nanzih has two Carrefours, which gives some indication of the district's population density. This is the store near Kaohsiung University. There's another Carrefour to the east, very close to the Jungshan Freeway. 楠梓有兩家家樂福 ， 從這件事可以看出楠梓的人口密度 。 這家靠近高雄大學 ， 另外一家在東部 ， 靠近中山高速公路 。
I'm really confused about what this restaurant does or sells but maybe I'm not cool enough. They definitely make Thai food and beignets, but the signs in front of this location are confusing. Their FB page is almost equally confusing. 我不太清楚這家餐廳在賣什麼 ， 有可能是我不夠酷。 我知道他們賣泰式料理跟法式的beignets， 可是餐廳前的牌子讓我搞混了 ， 他們的FB也是 。
Kaohsiung University is in northwest Nanzih. I've been all over this university, mostly because my wife once took the TOEIC here and I had to wait for hours on campus before she was finished. 高雄大學位於楠梓的西北部 ， 我把這所大學都逛完了 ， 因為我在這裡等我太太考完多益。
At the west end of campus. This small wetland is a sample of what you'll find still further east, in the ecologically protected area closer to the Taiwan Strait. 校園的西部 ， 這塊小濕地是生態保護區的一小部分 ， 真正的濕地比較靠近台灣海峽 。
More houses, closer to the Metropolitan Park. As I walked back to the MRT stop I could hear children playing, and birds chirping in the trees. It was a good day to be outside. 比較靠近都會公園的房子 。 我走回去捷運站的時候聽到孩子在玩的聲音 ，也有鳥在樹上唱歌的聲音 ， 那一天是戶外散步的好日子。
