[2026 Landscape Literature Series] Lecture Session | The Road Home: Writing the Complex Island of Interwoven Reality and Fiction

Due to its geographical advantages, Kaohsiung's Chichin (旗津) formed a fishing village settlement since the Ming Dynasty. With the opening of the port for trade in the late Qing Dynasty, it became a hub for countless merchants and foreign firms. As merchants and immigrants gathered, so did numerous literati and scholars, leaving behind many poetic verses expressing their sentiments about the landscapes of Chihou Mountain (旗後山), the lighthouse, and the fort.

The Kaohsiung Museum of Literature's "Kaohsiung Literary Life Landscape Walking Tour Activities" have selected Chichin District as the literary promotion site for 2026. Writers and cultural-historical workers are invited to participate, building the charm of literature within the city's spaces. Through lectures, walking tours, writing, and other forms, the program aims to cultivate potential literary guides in each district and present the related achievements within the museum and on online platforms, sharing Kaohsiung's literary landscape resources with more citizens.
