       The DuDu train service, created for the Lantern Festival, is being continued so that Kaohsiung residents and visitors from other parts of Taiwan can enjoy this convenient and interesting tour. The train uses tracks near the harbor which are seldom open to passenger traffic. Tourists can enjoy good views of the port, the Love River, and the Tuntex 85 Tower. Kaohsiung Train Station is cooperating with McDonald's, which serves food to passengers on the train. Each seat is equipped with a personal VCD player, and a large LCD screen shows images of Kaohsiung. The DuDu tour is 27 kilometers long, and takes one and a half hours. The train runs five times a day. Tickets can be purchased at Kaohsiung Train Station. --Written and translated by Nicole Yang
