The outside gate in the picture above is probably the most interesting part of the castle. The show of the guards shooting the canon is kind of hoaky. Definitely not a must see attraction.

I love Tainan, spacious and many buildings with historical value still stand within the city. It's a place with culture and full of nice people. Eternal Castle has a river surround it, as it was a bastion created in the past for military purpose, you can still see a few large cannons inside. The open square in the middle was a training ground for the troops. They also have performances from time to time, to give you a clear idea on how it was in the past. It's an interesting place to take a walk, a short visit of 30 minutes or so.





I came here with my friends, hoping that we able to learn Taiwan history and beautiful surroundings.
But, we were disappointed. Basically, it's just a training camp.
That's it.
There's no explanation or whatever.

Put simply, there's nothing golden and it's an old military installation, not a castle. Still, it's a well preserved landmark that provides a glimpse into the past and is pleasant to stroll around--especially if you enjoy military history. There are several preserved cannons and it was interesting to see the design of the coastal defense batteries. Overall, nothing extraordinary and not a lot of compelling historical context to go along with it so don't go out of your way to see it and don't lose sleep if you miss it. Anping Fort was much better for historical interest and context.

It is quite interesting if you are into military defense strategy. They managed to conserved some cannons from that time. It is small like everything in Anping, but meaningful.

Just a square field with some cannons on top of the little platforms. The place is quiet. At the entrance is a small moat with some boat installations if you like to paddle around. Not much to see. Opposite is a fish theme restaurant 府城馆 you should try
