Alian District, Administrative district in Kaohsiung, Taiwan.

The district extends between Erren River and Agongdian River in northeast Kaohsiung Plain, covering 34.62 square kilometers of agricultural terrain at 29 meters elevation.

In 1945, Alian changed from Japanese control to become a rural township of Kaohsiung County, later transforming into a district when Kaohsiung County merged with Kaohsiung City.

Chaofeng Temple, Guander Temple, and Lianfeng Temple represent the religious heritage across twelve villages, including Shian, Zhonglu, Fengshan, and Ganghou.

Provincial Highway 39 connects to Tainan's Xinhua District, while Highway 28 links to Luzhu and Tianliao, and Highway 19A provides access to Guanmiao.

The district maintains a population of 27,271 residents distributed among 9,523 households, with an almost equal ratio of 13,694 males to 13,577 females.
