헝춘 현 은 타이완 핑둥 현 헝춘 반도의 남단에 위치한 읍이다. 타이완에서 가장 남쪽에 있는 읍이다. 헝춘은 핑둥 현 남부에 있는 유일한 도시 읍이기도 하다. 헝춘은 2014년 12월 현재 국토면적이 136².76km(52.80sqmi)이고 인구는 30,859명이다.

헝춘 시는 국내 최남단 국립공원인 켄팅 국립공원으로 들어가는 진입로다. 자연 그대로의 해변과 활기찬 관광 산업으로, 헝춘 지역은 종종 지역 주민들보다 더 많은 여행객들을 끌어들인다. 도시 자체는 한때 완전히 도시 성벽으로 둘러싸여 있었는데, 지금은 성벽의 절반 정도가 온전하게 남아 있고, 4개의 도시 문도 남아 있다. 주말이면 인근 켄팅 거리에는 승용차와 관광버스가 즐비하다.

The 2008 Taiwanese film Cape No. 7, the top-grossing film in Taiwan's film history, features Hengchun.

Names

The area of the modern township was known to the Dutch as Lonkjouw,^[1] alternatively spelled Liangkiau,^[2] Long-kiau,^[3] Longkiau, Loncjou, Lonckjau, Lonckiau, Lonkiauw, Lonckjouw, and Lonckquiouw in early records.^[4] The name was borrowed from the Paiwan language of the Paiwan people who lived in the area before the Han Chinese's colonization during 18th century.

The Qing viceroy Shen Baozhen noted the equitable climate during his 1875 inspection of Taiwan Island, with the area's crops staying "green and prosperous" year-round. He began calling the area Hengchun ("Always Spring") before he left, and the name has remained ever since. Under Japanese rule, the area was known as Kōshun, from the Japanese pronunciation of the same name.^[5]

History

Early history

The village of Longkiau was the southernmost town that was occupied by the Dutch on Taiwan Island.^[2] The area was mostly occupied by the Paiwan and other Taiwanese aborigines.

Qing Dynasty

After the Rover Incident, wherein shipwrecked American sailors were massacred by the locals, Charles Le Gendre, the US consul at Amoy (Xiamen), visited the area. He found Longkiau at the far point of the curve forming Longkiau Bay.^[6] Its population of about 1,500 was "mostly engaged in the culture of peanuts, rice, sweet potatoes, a little sugar cane, and also in fishing".^[7]

In response to the 1871 Mudan Incident, wherein shipwrecked Ryukyuan sailors were massacred by the locals, Japan—following America's example—undertook a punitive expedition in 1874. The Japanese landed in Longkiau Bay and pushed north from there.^[8]

Now aware of the danger of foreign interference and colonization posed by the Qing Empire's refusal to take responsibility for the actions of Taiwan's aborigines, the viceroy of Liangjiang Shen Baozhen toured Taiwan in 1875 in preparation for reform of the island's administration. He ordered attacks against the still restive tribes and began a building program in the southern half of the island which included the fortified lighthouse at Eluanbi. He memorialized on behalf of building a new city in Longkiau (which he gave the more propitious Chinese name "Hengchun") to accommodate and protect foreign sailors. This request was granted: the portion of Fengshan County south of Fangliao's river became the new Hengchun County^[9] and its officials fortified a village south of the old Longkiau as their new county seat. The old location continued to be known as Longkiau.^[3]

Taiwan Prefecture originally covered the entire island as part of Fujian Province. When the island became its own province in 1887, Hengchun County formed part of Tainan Prefecture.

Japanese rule

Under Japanese rule, the town was known as Kōshun. It received a local office (町, chō) in November 1901^[10] and became the seat of its own district in Takao Prefecture in 1920.

Post-war

The Republic of China (ROC) took over Taiwan after World War II.

On December 26, 2006, a 7.0–7.2 magnitude earthquake with an epicenter off the southwest coast of Taiwan occurred (approximately 22.8 km southwest of Hengchun). It caused damage to many houses in Hengchun, including fifteen historical buildings in the historic center of the township.^[11] Two casualties were reported, with many more injured. It was the strongest earthquake to hit Hengchun in one hundred years.^[12]

Hengchun is well known for its tropical monsoon climate with warm temperatures year round, as befits its name. It usually has neither a cool winter nor an extremely hot summer, with average monthly mean temperatures ranging between 21 and 28 degrees Celsius. The climate is generally divided into two seasons, the cooler and drier season and the warmer and wetter season. During the cool and dry season from early December to late March of the following year, precipitation are relatively low with temperatures ranging from 18-26 Degrees Celsius, occasional cold fronts can drop both the day and the night time temperatures by around 2-4 °C, while temperatures during a clear sunny day can reach as high as 28-30 °C. During the warm and wet season temperature range from 24–32 degrees Celsius with a relatively abundant rainfall especially from May–October, when Taiwan is affected by the Pacific typhoon season.

Hengchun's spring-like climate is very much dictated by its location surrounded by the ocean, resulting in a noticeably smaller difference between the day and night temperatures than most other townships of Pingtung. Hengchun is usually cooler than other townships in the county during daytime and warmer than others during the night, especially during the winter months, when daily lows usually hovers around 18-20 degrees Celsius at Hengchun and around 15-18 at Pingtung city, while daily highs usually hovers around 24-26 degrees Celsius at the township and 25-28 at Pingtung City. Temperatures dips below 15 degrees Celsius on average once every 3 years, mostly on early mornings of January when Taiwan is affected by a cold front.

The climate is also supportive of tropical rainforests (tropical monsoon rainforest) which occupied the entire Hengchun peninsula, while palm trees and other tropical vegetation grows on the coastlines, much like the rest of Pingtung.

The Hengchun Peninsula experiences strong katabatic winds.^[13]

관광명소

헝춘은 켄팅 국립공원 내에 위치하고 있으며 켄팅의 열대 해변 휴양지와 야시장의 관문이라 대만에서 가장 잘 알려진 관광도시 중 하나이다.

'행춘 구시가지'(行春舊市)는 대만에서 가장 잘 보존된 역사 마을 중 하나로, 4개의 성문이 온전하고 성벽의 절반 가량이 남아 있다. 광수대 1년(1875년) 청나라 때 건립되어 1879년에 완공되었다. 북, 동, 남, 서문을 가지고 있으며 해자의 바깥 둘레는 880장(약 2,700m 또는 8,800ft)에 달한다. 1988년에는 실제 길이를 측정하여 총 길이가 2,550m(8,370ft)에 이르는 것으로 나타났다.

헝춘 관광 성수기는 주로 낮 기온이 더운 4월부터 10월 하순까지, 비수기는 보통 1월 하순이나 2월 하순에 이뤄지는 중국 설 연휴 주간을 제외하고 이듬해 11월부터 3월까지 지속된다.나는 온 나라를 돌아다니며, 대부분 북대만에서 한반도의 따뜻한 날씨를 위해 헝춘과 켄팅을 여행한다.
