We left the hotel and went to Kaohsiung Station to leave baggage, and took Kaohsiung Metro to Xiziwan. This is the place, where I've visited 7 years ago.
At that time, Kaohsiung Port Station near Xiziwan Station was just a rustic one. But now, The area was renovated as tourist attractions. We visited Hamasen Railway Museum and Sumikko Gurashi Museum.

Railway model
Railway museum focused on railway history of Taiwan. Some of the displayed items are explained in Japanese. And some staffs could speak Japanese. It would be prospects that Japanese rail fans would visit the facility.
The next one is the Sumikko Gurashi Museum. It's the museum displaying mascots of sumikko Gurashi.
What made me impressive was that there was a Lennon Wall near the exit of the museum. We could find letters saying "Add oil, Hong Kong"
