Fengshan Station Introduction
As the third largest station in Kaohsiung City, following Kaohsiung Station and Xinzuoying Station, Fengshan Station was the most important railway station in Kaohsiung County before the merger of Kaohsiung City and County. The history of Fengshan Station can be traced back to 1907, built by the Taiwan Governor-General's Railway Department. Initially, it served as a hub for agricultural products and military transport, witnessing the economic development and historical changes of the Fengshan area. Since the Japanese rule, Fengshan Station has accompanied the people of Fengshan for over a century, undergoing multiple renovations and transformations, evolving from a traditional train station to a military transit station and now, with the advancement of the railway underground project, entering a new era. It not only serves as a transportation hub but has also become a modern station that integrates commerce, public space, and green areas. After the railway was moved underground, the old railway tracks at Fengshan Station no longer obstruct the north-south flow of the city, replaced by a brand new station building and surrounding environmental planning. The newly built "Sky Fengcheng" draws design inspiration from "Fengshan Old City," blending historical elements such as the former site of North Gate, city wall bastions, and the swallow-tail roof of Fengyi Academy, recreating the bustling and prosperous scene of the old city gate. The station's interior features spacious open areas and green walkways, where travelers can rest and experience the urban landscape blending history and modernity. In the future, "Sky Fengcheng" is expected to become a new tourist landmark in Fengshan, providing citizens with a more convenient transportation experience and integrating modern urban design to create a vibrant public space. Although the shopping center is still in the process of attracting tenants, and detailed brand and facility planning are yet to be confirmed, Fengshan Station has already entered a new stage of development, becoming an important urban gateway in southern Kaohsiung, with much potential for the future.
