The Pier2 Art Center

The harbour view is absolutely beautiful, making it a perfect spot for a relaxing stroll. There are so many interesting indoor and outdoor exhibitions to explore, showcasing a great mix of modern art and creativity. Whether you're an art lover or just looking for a nice place to walk around, this place has a fantastic atmosphere. I highly recommend spending an afternoon here!

An area near harbor, converted from old time warehouses into shops. It gives a modern industrial vibe. The sculptures along river walk together with shipyard boats demonstrated the heaviness of the cargo industry. We came during daytime, not much activities. Maybe nighttime with lights may show its attractions.

If you’re visiting Kaohsiung for the first time, you’ll notice there’s not a lot of people in the streets. Most of them are here especially in the afternoon! Good to stroll here and walk around the bazaars and food stalls. There’s a wide open field nearby too where locals fly their kits and have their picnics. Try riding the LRT going to Shoushan Park for a short hike as well for a breathtaking overlooking view of the city.

Coming here to Kaohsiung, this place has always been on my must-visit list. I’ve seen so many photos and heard great stories about it, so finally seeing it in person feels exciting. It’s no surprise why many people love this spot—it’s calm, scenic, and full of charm. I decided to visit early in the morning to enjoy the quiet side of it, before the crowd started coming in. The cool breeze, the peaceful surroundings, and the soft morning light made it even more special. Deacon really enjoyed walking around and taking pictures without the usual rush of tourists. It was the perfect way to start the day and appreciate what Kaohsiung has to offer.

This place is great for various activities ranging from sitting by the harbor and watching the world goes by, or visiting the various indie galleries, or chilling over cups of coffee, to jogging in the spacious pier. Lots of instagrammable spots all around the area. Suggest to go in the late afternoon and catch remarkable view of the sunset.

Visited this place for the Bugcat Capoo Market pop-up store. Since I came during the weekend, there was a lot of visitors and there's a need to queue. Though it wasn't a long wait. There's limited-edition Bugcat merchandise but mostly were sold out. Other than Bugcat Capoo, there were other pop-up stores such as Moomin, Miffy, Witch Watch, and Brunch Brothers. As the area the huge, it's a great place for families and pets to gather and enjoy the pier.

A very pleasant area to walk around with several warehouses where there are shops inside. There is also a very beautiful bridge where you can walk across it and there are more shops. Very pleasant area and feels a little bit like Jeju Island in Korea.

The area is big and comfy with good harbor views for taking a walk. Unfortunately there is a lot of closed art warehouses and exhibitions with dated description plates without proper maintenance. A place only good for one-time visit in my opinion.

I originally wasn't very interested in putting Pier 2 Art Center on my Kaohsiung itinerary since it sounded kind of boring, but I'm glad I did. There are a lot of shops (not really apparel, more like trinkets/misc items) housing local brands, art galleries, murals, outdoor sculpture, and nice scenery here. The latter really ties everything together. You can see the skyscrapers in the background as you stand in the grass, and to one side would be the water. The only downside is it's so big, it's easy to not know where to go, but because of its expansiveness, I'd say you should dedicate at least half a day to spend here. When I went in October, there happened to be an Apothecary Diaries (anime) pop up shop, and it was really nice! Well decorated with a lot of photo ops and merch. I enjoyed the photobooth the most because the strips were Apothecary Diaries-themed too. I went on a Sunday, and there was an outdoor market with local products and food. I came in the daytime and came back at nighttime, and the market was even more popping! All in all, don't sleep on Pier 2 Art Center. There was so much to see and do here!

We stumbled upon the Pier-2 Art Center when we were exploring Kaohsiung, Taiwan. We took some photos of the artwork. There are some really awesome sculptures and other art pieces here. The Great Harbor Bridge is situated right by the area so be sure to take a walk on this cool pedestrian bridge as well. We were here pretty early so most of the shops were still closed. One of the good things about being early, though, is that there were no crowds of folks. Unfortunately, our time in Kaohsiung was limited as we were on a cruise. Only had about 8 hours to explore the city before our ship would be leaving. Will need to return to Kaohsiung to fully explore the Pier-2 Art Center, and the rest of this incredible city.

The Pier-2 Art Center is one of the most popular tourist spots in Kaohsiung. The area (originally built in 1973) had abandoned warehouses for years before the Bureau of Cultural Affairs of Kaohsiung City Government officially took over these buildings in 2006. Now most of these warehouses feature colorful wall art, sculptures, and multiple ongoing indoor exhibitions. Our party arrived at 1:45 PM and saw most of key areas in approximately 2 hours (not including KW2 棧貳庫). [How to get here]: Hop off at one of the three Kaohsiung MRT stations - Dayi Pier-2 Light Rail Station (C12) 駁二大義, PengLai Pier-2 Light Rail Station (C13) - 駁二蓬萊, or Hamasen Light Rail Station (C14/O1) 哈瑪星. Chances are most visitors take the Orange MRT Line and hop off at Hamasen Station (O1). [Areas]: * Dayong Warehouses (C1-C5 / P2-P3 / #1-#2 / #7-#9 - 大勇倉庫群): 12 warehouses and these spaces are primarily used for experimental and creative exhibitions. * PengLai Warehouses (B3-B4 / B6-B10 - 蓬萊倉庫群): 7 warehouses added in 2012. * Dayi Warehouses (C6-C11 - 大義倉庫群): Various boutique shops, gift stores, and temporary exhibits. * There are information centers located at C5 Warehouse and near C6/C7 Warehouses. The center opens at 10 AM daily and closes at 6 PM (Monday to Thursday) or 8 PM (Friday to Sunday + National Holidays). [Main activities to do/see] * A giant transformer robot - Bumblebee (near PengLai Pier 2 Light Rail Station C13): Apparently it was created by the popular Taiwanese band Mayday for their concerts. This is a must-see for fans of Bumblebee. * Great Harbor Bridge 大港橋 (near Dayi Pier 2 Light Rail Station C12): This bridge (inaugurated in 2020) is Taiwan's first horizontally rotating bridge. Each day at 3:00 PM, the bridge closes as it rotates 90 degrees and then returns to its original position which takes approximately 20 minutes. An additional rotation takes place on Friday through Sunday evenings at 7:00 PM. * Walkway between PengLai Pier 2 (C13) and Dayi Pier 2 (C12) Light Rail Stations: I haven't seen the "Totoro Tunnel" between Neiwei Art Center Station (C21A) and Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts Station (C21), but this stretch of grassy rail tracks is very Instagrammable and offers a great waterfront view. * Hamasen Railway Cultural Park 哈瑪星鐵道文化園區 (near Hamasen Light Rail Station C14/O1): An outdoor exhibit with various classic locomotives and random sculpture arts. * The Pier-2 Art Center train mural (near C5 Warehouse): A popular spot for tourists to take photos. [Other miscellaneous activities] * Various weekend markets: The art center hosts various pop-up markets such as Chill Life Market (趣生活), EDGEMAN MARKET (邊緣人市集), and w.do.market (溫度逝光). Check their Facebook, Instagram, or website for specific dates and details. * eslite bookstore (C4 Warehouse): Yes, one of Taiwan's most popular and well-known retail bookstore chains has a branch here. * Hamasen Museum of Taiwan Railway 哈瑪星台灣鐵道館 (B7 & B8 Warehouse - need to purchase admission ticket): Visitors will discover Asia's largest HO scale (1:87) three-dimensional rail model (admission ticket required). * Kaohsiung Port Depot 410 大港倉 (walk to the other end of the Great Harbor Bridge from the Dayi Pier 2 Light Rail Station C12): Not officially a part of Pier-2 Art Center but offers interesting pop-up shops like PEANUTS and several indoor eateries. * KW2 or Kaoshiung Port Warehouse No.2 (棧貳庫): Also not officially a part of Pier-2 Art Center but another nearby site with impressive boutique/gift shops as well as ticket sales for private ferry tours including a visit to Hongmaogang Cultural Park (紅毛港文化園區). Visitors can also take ferries to Cijin (旗津), but ferry services to Cijin are not available on Tuesdays from KW2. So visitors who wish to visit on a Tuesday must take the ferry from Gushan Ferry Pier Station (鼓山輪渡站) instead. [Conclusion]: While many warehouses are still under construction or closed, the Pier-2 Art Center continues to grow and has bright potential ahead. All outdoor areas are free to explore, but most indoor exhibitions require admission tickets. P.S. - Be prepared for Kaohsiung's summer weather which can feel like Florida with temperatures above 30°C (86°F) and high humidity. P.P.S. - I wouldn't recommend anyone staying past sunset in this area as (1) hailing a taxi in person was next to impossible and (2) the area gets quite dark with limited street lighting. The Kaohsiung MRT becomes the only transportation option at that point with rails running on an infrequent schedule on weekdays.

Pier2 is anbandoned shipping warehouses turned arts district. There are many interesting street art, sculptures, and murals. There are also many shops. It's much bigger than I expected and I wish we spent more time exploring.

Soon after we arrived at the fabulous new Kaohsiung Port Cruise Center, our cruise ship tour groups headed out to the parked tour busses for another full day of shore excursion in sunny, humid, and hot Kaohsiung, Taiwan. Our excitement to explore Kaohsiung was piqued because we'd never been to this city. While entering the harbor, we could see the city's transitional design theme, which blends contemporary, architecturally unique, and eco-friendly structures with its historic buildings. The first stop of this shore excursion was a tour of The Pier-2 Art Center, which our guide proudly mentioned would be a treat for those needing "retail therapy." The Yancheng District is an old town of Kaohsiung and is the least populated. This harbor district was constructed and developed during the Japanese colonial period while the railway transport system was established. This network of land and sea transport facilitated Taiwan's industrial development. Yancheng District's Pier 2 was predominately an industrial warehouse district and has been repurposed or modernized with an eclectic mix of shops, restaurants, and activities. Since its former industrial days, the old brick warehouses and their lanes or alleys have been cleaned and fortified for public access. There is public transportation, either MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) or Light Rail Transit, that can get you here, and of course, there is plenty of complimentary vehicle parking should you drive. Pier 2 is divided into three areas: 1- Dayong Area, which consists of 12 warehouses along Dayong Road and is the earliest development area of the Center. It was established in 2002.; 2- Peng-Lai Area is a 2012 development along the West Side Harbor Line in the Penglai warehouses; and 3- Dayi Area opened 2013 eastward of Dayi Street. The three areas are distinctively different from each other. The Dayong Area is a collaborative workspace for designers; the Penglai Area features farmland where crops are cultivated according to season, and artists show their on-site creative work, an experimental theater, and a railway museum, and the Dayi Area is where most of us focused our time by browsing the exciting shops, cultural venues and restaurants and food hall. There were many products and apparel from local designers as well as popular and international brands being featured. We preferred using our credit cards when making purchases rather than carrying foreign money from the countries we visited on this cruise. Besides our credit card company doesn't charge foreign transaction fees. Other than purchasing locally designed shirts (lightweight and easy to pack) for my husband, we got to enjoy the Great Harbor Bridge, the harbor skyline and gorgeous weather. The 90-minutes at this stop went by too quickly and I'd like to return to explore more.

I'm so sad that this is my second trip to Kaohsiung but the first time I've been to Pier 2. It is amazing! So much art and community in one place. The flea markets and stands remind me of one of the local night markets, without the suspect smells and much more space to maneuver. Most vendors take Line Pay and case, but don't expect to use your credit card. I was able to find some fun items to bring home, drink a delicious Taipei Honey Brew and taste some local "pot stickers". There's a ton to do so we'll definitely be back before we head home.

It's a pretty big area with different warehouse that has different exhibits and art displays. We came during the time near graduation season and many senior projects were displayed and we were simply impressed with their graduation artwork. Got a chance to talk to a few students about their project and they all did such a good job.

Previously an abandoned warehouse site, Pier 2 Art Center is now a series of art exhibits, shops, and sculptures in Kaohsiung. Many of the public displays are free to view, but there's some that require an entrance fee, such as the miniature train ride in the Railway Museum. We visited the Memories of Pier 2 exhibit, which was just $300 NTD for 2. There was an exhibit of photos of historical Kaohsiung overlaid against the present day which I particularly enjoyed. There was also a VR experience showing the development of this area of Kaohsiung. Really cool that while so much modern-day creativity is showcased here, Pier 2 is still keeping the history of Kaohsiung intact. For us, Pier 2 was just a half day affair. However, it's conveniently located just a short ferry ride away from Cijin Island, so I'd definitely recommend heading over for some seafood and making it a day trip.

This is a beautiful place to visit at sundown, when everyone is riding bikes or walking pets. People are friendly, clean, and you'll find plenty to see. The food options are great, and the prices are fair. If you do buy something from the local shops inside the pier, they're on the pricier side but they support the community and the small shops. The night markets are a great way to start here! Bring a camera because you'll be taking photos of all the sculptures (best at night).

Pier 2 was definitely one of the coolest, most eccentric, most creative places I've stumbled upon on my trip to Taiwan. And I visited other art centres and creative parks. It's just such a happy place! Weird colourful sculptures, painted buildings, a mini train that people can ride around in the square...and then a real life-sized train to travel to other Kaohsiung coastal attractions! From an artistic point of view, you can't beat Pier 2. The place is bright and vibrant, but this isn't just a closed-off attraction area. People live in this area. There are lively boutique shops, food stalls, handmade souvenir stands...and cats! And among them are warehouses with painted walls, a life-sized rusty metal Gundam (but not actually because trademark), a field of train tracks and giant abstract sculptures. It's the perfect place for locals and tourists to stroll down up and down the coast. Being located in an old industrial area, the old warehouse buildings have been turned into exhibits and modern shops. A lot of the exhibitions require you to pay and are on a variety of topics. One of the paid exhibits was all about dinosaurs, complete with a very mild river ride through fake foliage surrounded by fake dinosaurs. There are also a bunch of free exhibits here and there. For example, there was an entire building dedicated to emojis, with a big statue of the poop emoji for people to take pictures of. 10/10, would take pictures on a fake toilet again. It's also just lovely to stroll along the boardwalk, taking into the outdoor artistic sculptures. It was a shame we went in the evening because it turns out a lot of shops and restaurants close pretty early (before 6pm). As a result, we missed out on a chunk of what Pier 2 had to offer but we still had a good time! Some shops are smaller family-owned stands are still open. We found a interesting two-story souvenir shop that had a bunch of dogs and cats inside. Take a picture with a real-life cat emoji, buy some stationary while you pet a cat...great experience. (54/100) - 2019

Converted from old abandoned warehouses by the pier, Pier 2 Art Center is a popular attraction in Kaohsiung for art lovers and tourists. Family friendly and budget friendly, the center is more like a big art district comprised of 3 artistic warehouse clusters: Dayong Area大勇倉庫, Dayi Area大義倉庫, Penglai Area蓬萊倉庫. Although it is little bit of walk to visit all three areas, it's worth it explore the warehouses to see the artists' creativity and craftsmanship. Things to check out: Penglai Area 蓬萊倉庫: right next to Takao Railway Museum. - Plenty of giant metal art pieces in the open grass field. You'll see many people striking poses out in the park. Saw many people taking graduation pictures there. Dayong Area 大勇倉庫: murals and giant transformer Dayi Area 大義倉庫: - Little An: A Plan for the Creation of a Mosaic Environment. It's a mosaic of naked little boy with a faucet as his genital. Every few minutes, water spouts out like he's going to bathroom. Quite amusing piece of art, worth a few splashes and chuckles. - Mazu - various galleries and craft shops Pro: - LOTS of photo ops everywhere - sculptures, murals, warehouse window, even the trees. - Free to visit the public art displays (Exhibits and train rides require separate ticket purchase, but the fees are fairly inexpensive) - Easy to get to, accessible via MRT, bike, bus, light rail, cultural cruise - Spacious with a variety of artwork and use of medium Great place for dates, family outings, get together, or just spend a lazy day. Definitely will go back again!

Always seeking out public art installations and as much contemporary art as I possible can any time I am traveling any place on this earth, I was pleasantly surprised to see and experience the Pier-2 Art Center on a recent trip to Kaohsiung. Art. Design. Concerts. Cinema. Shops. Restaurants. Just be! Although very hot and I suggest an umbrella for shade if you are a lily of a person that melts and is missable in the sun, this area is really quite fantastic. I went mid-week around 1PM and maybe going later in the day might be better if weather is really hot. Although clearly growing with many empty retail spaces, I can see what the city is trying to do with this space and this area. By preserving the history of this vital port, they are also expanding the options of viewing public art, strolling about, dining in restaurants and simply enjoying the area. I boarded the Light Rail (it only takes coins if you are paying cash at this point, so go prepared with coins, not bills for payment) and got off at the Dayi Pier-2 stop. After wandering, exploring, eating and enjoying the entire Pier-2 Art Center and walking the length of the area, I then board the Light Rail system at the Penglai Pier-2 stop to return to my hotel. Thus, you can explore the entire area and no retrace your steps. I loved it. I loved everything about it. Meandering and my own pace. Taking in the unexpected pieces of art that are about the grounds. Popping in the Eslite bookstore. Having lunch at Pasadena restaurant and reading my book. Shopping in the little stores. Stumbling upon the railway museum. So glad that they are preserving, reusing, recycling this special historical area for the harbor into a useful, entertaining, local/tourist driving area. I was glad to have walked into the "Memories of Pier-2" store front when I arrived, kind of by accident. There is kind of an information desk inside in which I was able to buy a wristband for around $120NT and it then allowed me to go into several art fronts around Pier-2. The price seems incredibly reasonable to see a little formalized area showing the history of the area, picking up a map of the entire area so I could understand where to go, in addition to supporting the temporary installations featuring contemporary art that I would have access to and others who do not have the wristband would not. Most signage for art in Pier-2 is in Mandarin, not English, but I did not mind. Art is art, regardless of language. If art is your thing, don't miss visiting Pier-2 Art Center if you are in the area.

A repurposed area. Spacious, multi functional, artsy. From café, restaurants, unique little shops, interesting space, both outdoors, and indoors. Fun for both adults and kids basically very family oriented. Highly recommend.

The arts center was originally an abandoned warehouse site because of Kaohsiung's shift from industrial city to service city. Now it's the art center for exhibits and gallery, also restaurants and so on.

Extremely artsy centre in Kaohsiung Taiwan. We wouldn't have known to come here, if our friend (who's a local), didn't recommend this place to us. It reminds me a little of the Distillery District in Toronto, but very unique in it's own way. There's many handmade shops inside the art centre, and tons of stunning art pieces that are outside. From an old elementary chair dome, to painted buildings, to old shipping containers, there's lots to do and lots to see in their public art installations. Through the shops, there's a giant outdoor swing just hanging in the middle of the street, for you to take the perfect instagram shot. What I probably liked the most here, was the train that goes on land. The tracks are surrounded by a bright green grass, as if you were in a Hayao Miyazaki film!!

It's an amazing place with plenty of creative arts, fun and relaxing atmosphere! Some shops from local artists and coffee shops and restaurants. Easy to get to via Tram (or light rail).

Artwork: 10/10!!!! Creative to Cheeky to Awe-inspiring. There are plenty to see by just simply walking around and gazing at various street art. Shopping: 10/10!!!! From transparent locks, gizmos/gadgets to fashion accessories to food items... This place puts the fun in shopping with all the creative randomness that happens here. Food&Drinks: 10/10!!!! Science lab themed coffee shops to Japanese alleyway-like noodle-shops, there are MANY interesting restos to check out.

My Taiwanese host family brought me here to give me the true Kaohsiung touristy experience. Apparently, my host father's younger cousin works here in one of the shops this art center houses. I came back here on a later weekend with some of my closest TUSA friends to explore more of Taiwan, and that day we were targeting Kaohsiung. This place is located on a harbor in Kaohsiung and is, as I understand it, a series of warehouses repurposed in this modern age as a hub of artistic expression and allows artists to gather and present their goods and services for sale. Art is ubiquitous in the form of sculptures, murals, and even a swing that you can swing on. Warehouses are now filled with various shops, all equally unique and charming. Notable shops include a tea store where the tea is made from weeds, an international goods store that seems to support artisans in developing countries, a plant store, an antique oddities store, etc. Besides shops, there are also many artist studios and art exhibits present. I think I even saw a hair salon! Notable art exhibits include a space where the walls and floor were all white but a design was marked or painted on all over the walls, floor, and even pipes in the room. There was an extensive international photography exhibit that made me rethink what notions I had of photography (cliche, I know!). There was even an art exhibit space that allowed visitors to contribute to the piece (though I think I arrived too late to be able to add any more to it). One artist apparently was having a party for her exhibit space and we accidentally walked in on the party, but she and her guests were so nice and offered us free cake because they had a lot of cake. Knowing me, I would never take advantage of people's kindness, but I also would never deny free food, so I happily accepted the cake. This place has a lot going on with it. It's a vibrant space that welcomes hipsters and tourists alike. I'd say I'm both.

Awesome place to visit in Kaohsiung, lots of cool artworks and different sculptures to take pictures of. Definitely a must visit here. There's a huge Bumblebee, if you're a fan of transformers you'll like it here. Good hangout spot on the weekend and they also have different shops around that you can check out. The train ride is cute too.

I was on my own for a couple days on the trip and this was one of those days. The pier/art district was a few blocks from the hotel so I decided to check out the area and see what was going on. I don't think I have ever met anyone who doesn't like art so why not come visit here?? They have small art museums, statues all over and a big open field which looks good to take pictures in. They have places to eat along the way too. Simple place with some cool and fun vibes. This group of 3 girls swarmed me to take a picture with me, they said I looked like I could be famous from America. Well little do they know... I'm not famous at all... Yelp famous but that's about it haha

Amazing place! Great spot for people watching and insta worthy photos. This place also has different exhibits that cost 30 Taiwanese dollars each or 3 exhibits for $90 (not even $4 CAD). Make sure you wander out into the green park also and not just stay in the pier. Make sure you visit Sunnyhill when you're done to get free samples of pineapple cake and their tea - great way to end the day!

This is simply one of the coolest art spaces in Kaohsiung. Converted from an abandoned warehouse district by the water front, Pier-2 has exhibition and events year round to keep one occupied. You can take your scooter, subway, ride city bike or simply walk here. The view of the river is gorgeous and in sunny Kaohsiung, it's always a fun time at Pier-2. There are many well established eateries around as well as local favorites. Everything has signage in English as well so it's great for expats and locals alike.

Whether you're going with a few friends, family or with a date, The Pier 2 (駁二) would be a great choice. Former industrial warehouses with their interiors renovated into boutique shops, you'll be able to browse around for hours. The street art displayed in are also popular. More often than not there will be someone taking a picture with one so you may need to wait your turn. On the opposite sides of the tracks are two different exhibition centers. (where exactly along the tracks I"m not sure since it's quite a walk). The displays in them rotate every couple months or so. Considering it's Taiwan, and Kaohsiung (great food!), culinary choices are limited. But in my opinion the the upside to that is the cleanliness of the whole place. Note that it does get pretty crowded on weekends! Cliffs: Very eclectic place, lots to see, cool street art and exhibitions, shortage of food, great people. Check it out!

Pier-2 is very diverting. The former train yard, now park, is lovely. The on-site restaurant is a bit expensive and it can get ridiculously crowded but the art exhibitions are free (in my experience) so if you don't eat there and go on a weeknight to avoid the crowds you'll have a very nice and inexpensive time. I recently went to a play at Warehouse B9 and was disappointed by the venue. The play had a lot of action at stage-level and, due to the seating arrangements, everything that low was invisible to the audience just a few rows back and beyond. Either raise the stage or increase the angle of the seating because it was frustrating to have to keep standing to see what was going on.

Such hipster. Yes. Brick walls, "abandoned warehouses". Good area to take IG pics. Cool sculptures and lots of art. Cute stores with cute stuff. Sunny hills pineapple pastry is in this area, too. Nanoblocks store was one of my fav places.

I was here three years ago they have some events going on people were wearing some cartoon it looks fun at the time this time no events going on no exhibits as more of old Warehouse converted into restaurants in shop if you have time stay here for coffee not bad browse around the pier they have merry-go-around for your kids.

Great art center with a lot of different exhibitions. Highly recommended to tourists to Kaohsiung.

I went here with my son for an Anime Expo. This place is located next to the pier. There are lots of good eats in the area. There are also lots of wonderful art sculptures for you to do some photo ops next to them. It's a great tourist attraction location in Kaohsiung, Taiwan.

Pier-2 is great. It's more or less Kaohsiung's answer to Huashan Creative Park, but it feels a lot less commercial. The exhibits and artwork are always interesting and worthwhile. Seeing little kids' reactions to the huge red dog, especially when they discover the face on the end of its dick, is priceless. The little train thing is hilariously stupid. It gets a bit crowded on the weekends (especially by the little train thing), but it's never that bad. I did catch a selfie stick to the groin one time, so be careful out there! There are some pretty decent cafes here, but none with outdoor seating that I've found, which is kind of a bummer. There's a flea market of sorts on the eastern end that's pretty cool, and there's usually someone taking old timey photos, if you're in to the whole narcissist thing.

Historical warehouse port site where is a must go in Kaohsiung. Much cultural, hip, and art atmosphere you can get here.
