September 2, 2021 Misti Hsu

A modern city in the south of Taiwan, Kaohsiung shifts from ancient to contemporary culture with ease. Don't miss the breathtaking Fo Guang Shan monastery and its hall of giant Buddhas. Dream Mall, the largest shopping mall in Taiwan, has a Ferris wheel on the roof. Drive to Kenting National Park for beautiful landscapes.

Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts

Reviewed By 291genej - Silver Spring, United States

We took the Fuxing Shuttle from Kaohsiung Station to KMFA Station and walked 950 m northeast to this museum. Built in 1994 with a 90 acre surrounding park, both with the purpose of exhibiting sculptures. The lobby attendant checked our passports and permitted free entry as seniors to the permanent exhibit. After passing through the huge 4 floor Sculpture Hall, featuring a 6th C 10' marble Buddha, we saw successive rooms with undulating screens, multi media exhibits utilizing virtual reality masks, or manipulation of objects to personalize pictures, and one hall devoted to calligraphy. These are very creative exhibits that ventured into unfamiliar territory for us; very worthwhile and fascinating.

Weiwuying National Kaohsiung Center for the Arts

Reviewed By liucy752 - Taipei, Taiwan

Marvelous!!! This is a huge building complex, housing an Opera House (2236 seats), a Concert Hall (1981 seats), a Playhouse (1210 seats) and a Recital Hall (434 seats). All are world-class venues. They are connected by wavy floors and a stunning, streamline roof. It is said that the center is the largest single roof arts venue in the world. The Center has opened and operated since 2018. In the building complex, there are also a restaurant, a dinning pub, a coffee shop, a tea house and some other shops. You can hang around here all day long. It really is a modern architectural masterpiece. I think it will become the land mark of Kaohsiung City.
