Neighborhood: Beimen Area II
This part is the more populous and busier district along the coast in western Tainan. It was one of the places where the Siraya people, Taiwan’s plains aborigines called home. Extending from Jiali, Soulangh Cultural Park is the centre of culture and art in the area. The exhibitions in the warehouses at the sugar refinery integrates local culture.
The Ye Wang Koji ceramics in Jhensing Temple in Jiali District are listed as national historical monuments and have significance in terms of history, culture, and art.
Sigang is rich in flax. The Grand Sigang Bridge that stretches over Zengwun River has gained the reputation as being the No.1 bridge in Tainan. The Sigang Procession is performed every three years and regarded as the No.1 procession rituals in Taiwan. The procession integrates both pestilence and procession rituals, and is a crucial religious ceremony in the coastal regions. The impressive procession reaches a climax when the king boat (a boat that is said to carry a king/god and rids a place of plague and evil spirits ) is set ablaze to scare off plagues.
With regard to Cigu, it features white and soaring high salt mountains and Taiwan salt museum, which looks like a white pyramid. The ecology along the coast and the sand banks depict the changes in Tainan’s lagoons over the course of history. Cigu has abundant seafood and makes an essential habitat for black-faced spoonbills and migratory birds. To taste the freshest seafood, this is the place!

I visited the Qigu bird sanctuary in Tainan. From a distance observed a flock of the rarest flock of black spoonbill. Two thirds of the worlds existing population migrate to Taiwan over the winter months. Be prepared to view the flock through a powerful telescope. The local government have a very good museum built. Plus viewing area is very professional.

If you travel with boat, the boat guide will explain to you in details everything about Qigu Lagoon and you may enjoyed with abundant bird-seeing, touring mangroves and watching crabs in lagoon area.
And finally you can arrange with all-you-can-eat grilled oysters onsite.
You can see the dishes of seafood and fresh oysters everywhere on the nearby street of Longshan village.

Was really surprised when I went to the Qigu salt mountain mini theme park. It was beautiful crafted and there were many activities like Golf, go-kart, mini trains etc for the kids. A good place to go if you are around the area!
Nearby there is a salt village which keeps the rustic feel of how salt is made:) worth an experiential visit too!

It's a nice visit for experience but I must say it's rather disappointing - there's almost no more salt left and very commercialized with stalls and rides for tourist instead. Not quite what I was going for..
