KAOHSIUNG (TVBS News) — The Kaohsiung Light Rail has become a popular tourist attraction, drawing twice as many riders this December than in September.
A section of the Kaohsiung Light Rail, dubbed the "Totoro Tunnel" by fans due to its resemblance to a set of a Japanese animation movie, has become extremely popular among locals.
Visitors are flocking there for spectacular photographs — despite warnings that crossing into forbidden areas like railroads can result in fines of up to NT$7,500 imposed by local police.
