After the lantern festival of 2019, someone asked something
about my hometown 鹽水. I wrote what I understand about 鹽水.

月津 was the old name of my hometown 鹽水. For me 月津 is
very attractive. As a people born in 鹽水, I like to say a few
words to explain why the old name was 月津.

New Orleans is a famous city and a harbor in the southern
part of the USA. The city locates in the outlet of Mississippi
River. In the area of the city, Mississippi River has a certain
shape which is very similar to a crescent. Because of that,
Crescent City is another name of New Orleans. From 1970 to 1976,
when I was a graduate student in the University of New Orleans,
it was found that both radio stations and TV channels used
Crescent City instead of New Orleans very often.

Historic documents tell us that鹽水 was a market spot in Taiwan
and between Taiwan and China. 鹽水 is not near the sea shore,
but connected by 八掌溪 and 急水溪 to the sea shore. In the
area of 鹽水, the water way might have a shape that looks like
a crescent. At that time the wise persons gave the name “月津”
for this area. The water of the river close to the sea shore
part might be slightly salty, so the old name was replaced by
the current name.

Because the water ways changed and the rivers became shallow day
after day, it is impossible to see any old water ways at all.
It is so bad.
