Hamasen

Hamasing (Chinese: 哈瑪星; pinyin: Hāmǎxīng) or Hamasen (濱線) is a historic urban area of Kaohsiung, Taiwan.

The name Hamasing was derived from Japanese "Hamasen (濱線)", meaning "beach railway line", this being the Japanese name of two railways which passed through this area.

Before the establishment of Kaohsiung Station, Hamasing was a regular stop for passenger trains.

Hamasen Station of the Kaohsiung MRT is located in this area.

A pedestrian and cycling tunnel through Ape Hill connects Hamasing and National Sun Yat-sen University in Sizihwan.
