Kaohsiung Museum of Literature Introduction
The Kaohsiung Museum of Literature is located in Central Park in the heart of Kaohsiung City, adjacent to the famous "Urban Light Corridor." The building itself was established in 1954 and originally served as the first library in post-war Kaohsiung. In 1997, it was converted into the Second Main Library. By 2003, the government renamed it the first literature museum in Taiwan named after a city, with the title personally inscribed by writer Yeh Shitao. It officially began its mission to preserve, collect, and promote Kaohsiung literature, and in 2006, it was approved by the Council for Cultural Affairs as a "Local Cultural Center."
