Renwu District or Jenwu District is a district of Kaohsiung City in southern Taiwan.[2]
After the handover of Taiwan from Japan to the Republic of China in 1945, Renwu was organized as a rural township of Kaohsiung County. On 25 December 2010, Kaohsiung County was merged with Kaohsiung City and Renwu was upgraded to a district of the city.
It has 97,155 inhabitants as of October 2023 and an area of 36.0808 km2.
The district consists of Dawan, Wannei, Kaotan, Wulin, Renfu, Renwu, Wenwu, Zhuhou, Bagua, Gaonan, Houan, Zhonghua, Wuhe, Renhe, Chishan and Renci Village.[3]
Renwu is served by National Freeway 1 and National Freeway 10, as well as Provincial Highway 1. Taiwan Railways Administration's Western Trunk line and Taiwan High Speed Rail both pass through Renwu, but no station is currently planned.
