爷爷, Cijin Island

He was on his usual morning walk that time he saw us trudging the path uphill to the lighthouse. We simply asked him for directions but he gladly offered to be our tour guide. We offered him a tip, which he refused to take. 谢谢 🙇‍♂️

Kaohsiung Travel Guide

1. Love River

Love River is the perfect place to take long walks and bike rides, during the day or night. The most scenic part is where Wufu road crosses the river because there are many attractions there. Many people also enjoy the peaceful boat rides provided, as it gives a different perspective from the trail. Along the river banks are many cafes, bars, and restaurants and street musicians often play for the crowds at night.

Take the orange line and get off at Yanchengpu and exit and walk east up Wufu Road toward the Love River. Scroll down for more travel information.

2. Meinong Township

Meinong Township is a quaint area on the outskirts of Kaohsiung known for its preservation of Hakka culture. The highlights of the township are two folk villages where you can explore their old architecture while shopping for crafts and food. Meinong is known for its beautiful paper umbrellas which you can purchase or admire, as well as its assortment of Hakka foods including bantiao and Hakka stir fry.

3. Cijin Island

Cijin Island is a small island off of Kaohsiung. You can go sightseeing at the Tianhou Temple, the star tunnel, and Cihou Lighthouse as well as enjoy the view on the beach. The food definitely holds much of the appeal too - enjoy fresh and cheap seafood that you’d probably be hard-pressed to find elsewhere. From fried squid to black ink sausage to spicy scallops, you’ll definitely find something you like. 

To get there, take the Kaohsiung MRT to the Sizihwan stop (四子灣站). Find the sign pointing to the harbor and walk for about 10 minutes. Afterwards, take the ferry.
