Kaohsiung's Hamasen Museum of Taiwan Railway hosted a banana party on Dec. 7-8 to celebrate local agriculture and the city's historic banana trade. Decorated with giant banana art, the venue honors Taiwan's "Banana Kingdom" era, when bananas were exported to Japan. Highlights include Japan's "banana man," musical performances, an outdoor market, and a stamp collection activity with limited-edition pendants. The event emphasizes Taiwan's cultural and economic ties with Japan while showcasing local produce, especially fresh bananas.
