≡Attractions≡
Chikan Tower
The Dutch constructed Fort Provintia in 1653 during their occupation of Taiwan. The still-standing Chihkan Tower consists of ruins from the outer walls of Fort Provintia, Haishen Temple and Wenchang Pavillion, representing the culture of Han Chinese people, as well as a Bixi stele that was moved to this site in 1960 (bixi being a mythical creature that resembles a tortoise). A walk through Chihkan Tower is also a walk through Taiwan’s history.
Hayashi Department Store
Opened in 1932, Hayashi was the second department store in Taiwan. The five-story building, with the first electric elevator installed, was the tallest landmark in Tainan. Today it has become a cultural and creative department store full of historic traces.
Du Hsiao Yueh Danzai Noodles
Classic snack that dates back to 1895, with prawn head stock being one of the features.
Chimei Happiness Factory
Pineapple cakes are must-buys from Taiwan. Here not only can you taste and buy them, but also make one yourself!
Chimei Museum
Chimei Museum is the largest Western fine art museum in South East Asia. The European style museum park is ideal for picture taking.
Ten Drum Culture Village
The first drumming-themed art village in Asia. Regular drumming performances (morning and afternoon) during the week. Taking advantage of former sugar plant architecture, the park developed some exciting rides: five-story transparent slide, free fall, skywalk, high swing, and so on. A fantasy park no less.
Anping Fort (Fort Zeelandia)
The Dutch occupied Anping area in the 17th century and built Fort Zeelandia for military defense. The walls built back then used oyster shells and glutinous rice. The remains are now the main relics at the Anping Fort, witnessing the development of Tainan over the past 400 years.
Anping Tree House
The existing structure was built during the Japanese Occupation Period. After World War II, it became a salt warehouse. Abandoned for more than half a century, banyan trees grew and took over the place. The awe-inspiring scene of nature and man-made structures intertwined with one another is retained with restoration efforts.
Sio House (Salt Museum)
More than a century ago, Taiwan's salt production industry thrived along its coasts, and this stronghold of the salt-making business now lies right under your feet. Here, you can find “birthday salts” available in 366 colors, each of which is a limited edition. Find your own unique birthday salt!
Sicao Green Tunnel
This mangrove forest, a mere 15-minute drive from the city, stretches on as far as the eyes can see, its verdant canopy luscious and thick with life. Travelers drift down the dreamy emerald waterway on a bamboo raft, seeking the legendary Angel's Kiss.
Cigu Salt Mountains
The salt mountains standing by the seashore is one of the must-visit attractions in Tainan. The Salt Museum next to it explains the procedure of salt-making.
Jingzaijiao Tile-paved Salt Fields
Having conquered the massive Cigu Salt Mountains, visitors can explore the smaller dunes of salt at the Jingzaijiao Tile-paved Salt Fields. At dusk, the triangular salt dunes of Jingzaijiao sitting in the fields shine and shimmer in the warm rays of the setting sun.
Tainan Night Markets
There is always a night market open, every single day!
Blueprint Culture & Creative Park
The park was built from a former prison dormitory, which, through a restoration process, has been infused with new life. Architectural blueprints are brought to life through the spatial design of these buildings. You may find numerous boutique shops selling creative and cultural products in the park, and also lots of photo-worthy, tasty foods, perfect for those IG posts. This park is undoubtedly a great choice for a leisurely evening walk.
