Fongshan, China, Republic of (Taiwan)


Fongshan City (鳳山市) is located in southern Kaohsiung County, Taiwan Province of the Republic of China. Immediately east of Kaohsiung City, Fongshan is capital of Kaohsiung County and is home to the Chinese Military Academy.

In the Qing Dynasty, Fongshan County (鳳山縣) included areas south of Tainan City (then called Prefecture City) and west of the mountains. In 1875, the southern part of Fongshan County was separated into Hengchun County (恆春縣). After the Japanese Colonial Government started to develop the Kaohsiung Harbor in the early 20th century, the importance of Fongshan was replaced by Kaohsiung City.
