Long ago, I used to live in southern Taiwan, but have left around 2009, and have not made it back since. This month, decided to take an unexpected trip to Taiwan, starting from Kaohsiung. It’s an easy pick, because the airport is right next to town, connect by the MRT, and Kaoshiung is just a model of convenience.
It was wonderful to visit back. Nostalgia in every corner, it had the vibe that I remembered, but more mature and developed, with the friendly welcoming atmosphere that I had almost forgot. In the short time I had for Kaohsiung I tried my best to see as much as possible, visiting night markets, exploring the tourist areas, and trying some of the local cuisine.

In 2023, just following the new year celebrations, I spent a couple of weeks in Kaohsiung and got to see new wonderful areas, a much more comprehensive view of the city. Here’s a bit from that visit:
