The consulate and consulate residence (up the hill) are part of the same ticketed entry. There’s very little in terms of exhibits, a couple of rooms, wax figures, and framed pictures/ articles. Gift shops and cafes occupied more of the space, and both are overpriced. The only enjoyable part was the view at the top of the hill, but you could climb the hill without entering the consulate area. Would not recommend, especially since it requires additional...

There are two entrances - one by the sea (from the main road) and the other near a temple, through a quite hillside neighborhood. I took the temple route which leads to the hilltop consular residence first. Both paths have a lot of steps, so it’s a good idea to bring a bottle of water with you. If you want to try both paths, I recommend entering through the temple side and exiting through the ocean gate. The view from the...

1840年代以降,歐美勢力東漸,為和中國進行貿易,迫使清廷開放五口通商。英法聯軍之役後,1858年清朝與英、法簽訂天津條約,臺灣(安平)、淡水開埠通商,隨著貿易量增加,又有增開港口之議。1863年雞籠、打狗二港開放做為淡水、臺灣(安平)之外口,1864年5月5日臺灣關設立於打狗,打狗正式走入國際舞臺。英國為拓展對臺灣貿易的經濟利益,設置領事館,行使保僑、商務、領事裁判權及地方交涉。1861年7月,首位英國駐臺灣副領事史溫侯(郇和,Robert...

1840年代以降,歐美勢力東漸,為和中國進行貿易,迫使清廷開放五口通商。英法聯軍之役後,1858年清朝與英、法簽訂天津條約,臺灣(安平)、淡水開埠通商,隨著貿易量增加,又有增開港口之議。1863年雞籠、打狗二港開放做為淡水、臺灣(安平)之外口,1864年5月5日臺灣關設立於打狗,打狗正式走入國際舞臺。英國為拓展對臺灣貿易的經濟利益,設置領事館,行使保僑、商務、領事裁判權及地方交涉。1861年7月,首位英國駐臺灣副領事史溫侯(郇和,Robert Swinhoe)在臺灣府(臺南)設立第一個辦公處。1864年打狗開港設立海關後,11月英國將駐臺灣副領事館南遷至打狗,1865年2月升格為領事館,郇和升任為領事,打狗領事館因此成為英國駐臺灣第一個正式領事館。 英國領事館初遷打狗時,設於港內的三葉號(Ternate)船上,後改租民房於旗後,至1876年才正式於哨船頭開始籌建,建館工事由英國工部負責設計監造。官邸用地選擇於打狗港入口西北方居高臨下;而辦公處則位於山下,面對港口與臺灣關緊鄰,方便領事業務與商業貿易,二者之間開闢一條小徑上下連結,1879年完工啟用。 1894年甲午戰爭,翌年清戰敗,與日本簽訂馬關條約,臺灣割讓日本,英國駐臺灣領事官員改由東京大使管轄。 隨著潟湖淤積及入口處沙洲阻礙,打狗港日趨沒落,1910年3月打狗與安平英國領事館同時關閉,領事辦公重心移往淡水。1925年12月,領事館及官邸產權移轉給日本政府,打狗英國領事館正式落幕。 打狗英國領事館官邸於1929年改設為臺灣總督府高雄海洋觀測所,1946年國民政府接收,定名為中央氣象局高雄測候所,1973年5月後成閒置狀態,1977年賽洛瑪颱風後處處斷垣殘壁,1985年高雄市政府著手修復,闢為高雄史蹟文物陳列館,1987年4月由內政部公告為古蹟。2003年起,透過民間企業共同參與維護,以文化資產再利用形式展現為民眾造訪休閒的文化歷史空間。 山下的打狗英國領事館辦公室,於1932年設立高雄州水產試驗場,從事罐頭製造實驗。戰後國民政府於1950年6月定名臺灣省水產試驗所高雄分所。2004年該所員工全數搬離,次年由高雄市政府公告為市定古蹟。而連接山上官邸與山下辦公室的步道,也於2004年公告為市定古蹟。 打狗英國領事館的發展歷程,近年經學界詳查英國國家檔案局資料,逐步梳理釐清。2010年起開始進行領事館及古道之修復作業,與官邸整合為文化園區,為臺灣唯一完整呈現英國領事館官邸、古道、辦公室之重要古蹟群落。(資料來源:打狗英國領事館文化園區官網)
