If you are familiar with Kaohsiung, you would know that the Zuoying District, where the High-Speed Rail station is located, is divided into new and old sections. The "Old Zuoying" includes famous attractions such as Lotus Pond and the Guomao community. This area is characterized by its remnants of the old city and the numerous military dependents' villages built after the war, creating a unique cultural landscape. Additionally, it is home to Taiwan's first stone city—the Qing Dynasty Fengshan County Old City. When visiting the Old Zuoying, it’s a great idea to hike the newly opened "Jiancheng Path" for scenic views of the Dragon and Tiger Pagodas as well as Banping Mountain, while collecting pieces of history from the ancient city along the way.
