Fengshan Station Introduction
As the third largest station in Kaohsiung City, after Kaohsiung Station and Xinzuoying Station, Fengshan Station was once the most important railway station in Kaohsiung County before the merger of Kaohsiung County and City. The history of Fengshan Station dates back to 1907 when it was constructed by the Taiwan Governor-General's Railway Bureau. Initially, it served as a hub for agricultural products and military transportation, witnessing the economic development and historical changes in the Fengshan area. Since the Japanese colonial period, Fengshan Station has accompanied the people of Fengshan for over a century, undergoing multiple renovations and transformations, evolving from a traditional train station and military transfer point to a modern station today. With the progress of the railway undergrounding project, Fengshan Station has entered a new era, becoming not only a transportation hub but also a modern station that integrates commerce, public space, and greenery. After the railway undergrounding, the old railway no longer obstructs the north-south flow of the city, replaced by a brand new station building and surrounding environmental planning. The newly created Sky Feng City is inspired by the design of "Fengshan Old City," incorporating historical elements such as the old site of Beimen, city wall fortresses, and the gable roofs of Fengyi Academy, recreating the bustling scene of the old city gate. The interior of the station features spacious open spaces and green walking paths, allowing travelers to rest and experience the urban landscape where history and modernity intertwine. In the future, "Sky Feng City" will become a new tourism landmark in Fengshan, providing citizens with a more convenient transportation experience, while integrating modern urban design to create a vibrant public space. Although the shopping mall is currently still in the leasing stage, with detailed brand and facility planning yet to be determined, Fengshan Station has already entered a new stage of development, becoming an important urban gateway in southern Kaohsiung, with the hope of bringing more possibilities in the future.
