Kaohsiung City
Kaohsiung, situated on the southwestern coast of
Taiwan, is the second largest city in Taiwan and
is also commonly known as "Gandu", meaning
harbor city. Oceans have supported the life and the
development of this city. Kaohsiung Port is not only
the biggest port in Taiwan, but it also ranked as one
of the leading ports in freight volumes in the world.

Sizihwan Sunset Beach Resort

A must see, Sizihwan Sunset Beach is arguably
the most popular tourist attraction in Kaohsiung.
Boasting a profile as one of the largest and
most stunning beach in Taiwan. A chance rarely
experienced, you will get the opportunity to see the
natural wonder of this coastal region, famous for its
beaches and seafood.

Qijin
Qijin is a long island located outside the Kaohsiung
Port and it is the main route for boats departing or
arriving Kaohsiung City. With the ocean on all four
sides, Qijin is a natural haven for seafood, with
plenty of restaurants serving up fresh-from-the-sea
cuisine.

Tainan City
Tainan, the cultural place of origin, was Taiwans
political and military center from 1624 to 1885. It
has been a gateway to Taiwan since the Dutch
colonial period, and was flourished through the
Zhengs regime and the Qing dynasty. Tainan
is known for its history, temples, traditional
lifestyles and traditional snack food. There are
over 500 Buddhist and Taoist temples within city
limits, and many of these are among the oldest
and most important in the country.

Tainan Confucius Temple

Confucius has been honored as Supreme Sage and

Teacher in Chinese history and culture for the past
2500 years. The temple for worshipping Confucius
served as both a site for ceremonial rituals and
educational endeavors. In Taiwan, the first Confucius
Temple was built in Tainan in the year 1665. From
here, Confucianism was gradually disseminated
islandwide. Now, more than 300 years old, the
beautiful ancient architecture, which used to play a
key role in education and national rites, has been
transformed into a venue for cultural activities, as well
as a famous tourist destination

Chih-Kan Lou (Fort Provintia)

Chih-Kan Lou was constructed by the Dutch
in 1653 and was originally used as the
administration center during the Dutchs
occupation. Its original name was Provintia
which means eternity in Dutch. The sunset
view of Chih-Kan Lou was classified as one of
Taiwans top 8 famous scenes.
