Keelung owns various cultures and sceneries for its harbor, unique climate, and alien culture that keeps coming in. This paper makes research on cultural images from daytime to nighttime and from civilization to phantom. The two landscapes by the harbor—Kan-Zai-Ding Fish Market and Lin Kaiqun Building offer new ways of seeing and experiencing space conflicts in lanes, active culture of common people, various night culture, visions of self and other, cultural value, harbor culture, and the Concept of Everything-having-its-life.
Beginning with an early settlement and now being transformed into a street with both dwellings and business, Kan-Zai-Ding Fish Market has changed a lot in its space while people lived there still keep an old lifestyle. People who have been arrived here will definitely be attracted by its unique atmosphere and various sceneries. It is a long narrow street and also a quick and effective one. All night brightness and tides of people and vehicles along with fresh fish make Kan-Zai-Ding Fish Market a hustle and bustle place in the sleepless city. Keelung Harbor in the nighttime is a different from the daytime in landscape and operating mechanism. It is these different elements that make this place a great Landscape Spectacle.
Lin Kaiqun Building is the remains of the past and the contrast to the cityscape. The uncertainty of history is embodied by its contradictions—prosperity and decadence, collapse and construction, forgetting and preserving. However, the legend and memories of the city are kept as well as romantic and venturesome feelings and preservation callings. It has become a touristic gaze through imagination and memories of which curious and nostalgic feelings arise and are consumed. Besides the esthetic atmosphere of Romanticism, the building itself alone with places around bear Taiwan’s modern history. Colonial buildings, military installations, and bars together with their representations of gloom, conflicts, sacrifice and ghosts are still in today’s Keelung Harbor. They are living in people’s impression and imagination and are still revealing their spirits under the continuous devastation and coverage.
The author has read related literature and interviews in order to see other people’s descriptions of Kan-Zai-Ding Fish Market and Lin Kaiqun Building. The discussion of Night and Phantom may involve the relationship and conflicts between reality and representation. Different groups may have different feelings and interpretations of history, memories and various social experiences. Landscape itself is a place for different representations of memories and conflicts. Therefore, this paper is not only about multi-landscape but also multi-discussion of landscape.
It does not mean throwing away the original thinking pattern of landscape or renaming it. It is just a new way of relearning the city in order to avoid repetition of single structure. The deep significance of urban evolution lies in the keen and tolerant reflection in each phase of city changes. The significance of reflection of essential discussion on this level is larger than features of production.
