Feng-shan

▪ Taiwan
formerly  Kao-hsiung Hsien,  

      shih (municipality) and seat of Kao-hsiung hsien (county), southwestern Taiwan, situated about 5 miles (8 km) east of Kao-hsiung shih in Taiwan's western coastal plain. Developed during a politically unsettled period of the 17th century in an interregnum dominated by the pirate Cheng Chih-lung (1604–61), the city has many Buddhist and Confucian relics. The major industries are rice and sugar milling, pineapple canning, and the manufacture of chemicals and small machinery. The city, an important junction on the southern section of Taiwan's West Line railway, is connected to points south by a railway bridge 5,000 feet (1,525 m) long, on the nearby Kao-p'ing River. Feng-shan is also the southern terminus of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Expressway (North-South freeway), connecting it to Chi-lung (Keelung) city 235 miles (378 km) to the north. Ta-pei, or Ch'eng Ch'ing, Lake is about 4 miles (6 km) north. Pop. (1989 est.) 284,120.
