Kaohsiung Underground Railway Information Center, Transportation museum in Sanmin District, Taiwan.
The Kaohsiung Underground Railway Information Center is a building in Sanmin that documents the history of railway and transportation development in the region. It features interactive exhibits, models, and information about how the city's transport system was built.
The building was constructed in 1941 by Shimizu Corporation for its original purpose. It was relocated in 2002 and returned to its starting location next to Kaohsiung Main Station in 2021.
The center documents how Kaohsiung's transportation network evolved and shaped the city's development over time. The exhibits show visitors the relationship between new transport connections and neighborhood growth.
The center is located near the main station and is easily reached by public transportation. Visitors can arrive by train, subway, or bicycle depending on where they are coming from in the city.
The building's relocation was a remarkable engineering feat that involved moving the heavy structure to its new position. This technical effort demonstrates how important the location is to the city.
