    Over the past few years, I’ve grown to really appreciate Liouguei District (六龜). It’s one of the most scenic and thinly populated parts of Kaohsiung.
    The number of humans living here has steadily declined since the 1980s. With barely 12,500 adults and children spread over 194 square kilometers, Liouguei’s residents enjoy more space per person than folks in Hualien County.
    Liouguei is dominated by the Laonong River (荖濃溪), a major tributary of the Kaoping River (高屏溪). Within the district, there are four river crossings. Three are part of the provincial highway network; the fourth belongs to Kaohsiung Local Road 131.

    18 ARHATS MOUNTAIN
    Kaohsiung’s Liouguei District (六龜) is cut into halves by the Laonong River (荖濃溪). On the western side of this waterway, there’s a range of steep hillocks known as 18 Arhats Mountain (十八羅漢山), in honor of the Buddha’s original followers.
    The number is poetic license. There are actually more than 40 cone-shaped hills, and until well into the 20th century they formed a barrier between Liouguei and the outside world.
