The second largest city in Taiwan with 1.5 million inhabitants, Kaohsiung (formerly Takao) is the symbol of the island's economic success. Taiwan's largest port and the third largest container port in the world, Kaohsiung has experienced significant growth in recent years. At first, heavy industries moved into the city, then the municipality attracted high-tech industries to the city centre, relocating factories to the suburbs. The modern architecture of the city is very linear with large, well-ventilated avenues, and in the vicinity of the port, artists have invested old warehouses. To embrace the port at a glance, there is nothing like the ascent of Shushan or Mount of Longevity.
