#One-day tour in the city Since I didn’t want to waste time taking the bus or looking for directions, I chartered a car for a one-day tour. 1. "Qian Lai Ye" is a very popular attraction and the filming location of "The Prince Who Turns into a Frog". Entering the park, there is also a salt extraction factory for sightseeing. 2. Crystal Church: With smooth and simple lines, pure white style, and crystal clearness, it is surrounded by shallow water on the salt base, reminiscent of the large and small salt piles in the salt fields. 3. Jingzijiao Wapan Salt Field: It is the first salt field in Beimen and also the oldest existing Wapan Salt Field site. 4. Mashagou 3D Painted Village: Walking into the tranquil Mashagou, "art at the corners, surprises in the alleys", the paintings on the walls and floors are full of fun. 5. Qigu Salt Mountain: It was once the largest salt field in Taiwan. The salt peaks are like snow-capped mountains and are a spectacular sight. In addition, the park also has an exhibition called "The Days of Managing Salt Affairs" to explore the memories of salt and salt workers, and visitors can also make souvenirs by themselves. There are also many salt-related products available for purchase here. A warm reminder: if you see something you are interested in, buy it. If you miss this opportunity, it will be gone forever. I didn’t buy it because I had several days left to travel, and I can’t find it anymore. 6. Sicao Green Tunnel: Mangroves on both sides grow towards the center, with dense treetops, interweaving into a tunnel like a green roof. Cruise ships pass under the treetops, and tourists on the boats need to bend down and lower their heads to avoid being scratched by branches. #TaiwanTravel #TainanAttractions

Tainan Chigu Salt Mountain is a leisure park suitable for a half-day trip for both adults and children. You can experience the daily life of the salt fields, taste baked salt eggs and salty popsicles, and take the park train and swan boats.

The parking lot here charges 100 yuan per car. You can see a big salt mountain and climb up it. The height of the salt mountain is about five stories high. You can see the whole park from above. There are many new facilities in the park now. There is also a salt mountain museum and a shopping area. It is not recommended for the elderly to climb because it is steep and a little dangerous. If there are children, adults should hold their hands. #Local Tour

The snow-white peak stands on the coast. Covering an area of ​​more than 2,000 hectares, the Qigu Salt Mountain is a well-known local landmark. The salt pile is nearly six stories high. The salt sculpture activities held regularly every year are always crowded. A new layer of salt will be laid before the event starts, making the salt mountain even whiter after being exposed to wind and sun. As the salt mountain is hard and slippery, you need to climb the stairs and hold the ropes on both sides. The sky is a beautiful turquoise against the white salt mountain. In addition to taking pictures, you must not miss the salty popsicles and salted bean curd when you come to the salt mountain. #LocalTour #Attractions #Tainan #yonduo #bucketlist

The scenic spot can be arranged for half a day. It can be divided into the free visitor center and the Yanshan Park where the Taiwan Salt Corporation charges admission. The former allows free parking and free visits, and it is good to take pictures. The latter charges 100 yuan per car, which is the most cost-effective way to enter. After entering, there are many experience and entertainment facilities that require additional fees, which I think is a pity. The overall quality is about 5-10 years to go once~

There is a snow mountain in Taiwan that is both mysterious and does not melt? No, it’s a salt mountain. This is the location of the salt pile at #七股晒盐场. The pile of salt is nearly six stories high and weighs 40,000 tons. It looks like a snow mountain 🏔️. It is said that this salt was the war reserve salt during Chiang Kai-shek's time. Climb up #Qigu Salt Mountain to enjoy the scenery of #Qigu Lagoon Area and #Taijiang National Park. There is little rainfall in Tainan throughout the year except during the rainy season, especially in winter, making Tainan an ideal place for drying salt. Go to the salt field and learn how to dry salt from Tainan people, make #salt-marinated tofu pudding, and eat #salt popsicles. "My enthusiasm is like a fire, burning the entire desert!" After visiting the snow-capped mountains in the morning, we went to the nearby Edingtou Sandbar Desert in the afternoon. Since the rivers in western Taiwan are relatively shallow, the sand and soil deposited from the rivers accumulate over the years to form sandbars. In addition, its location in the coastal area has long been affected by monsoons and terrain, forming sand dunes. Therefore, #Edingtou Sandbar is also known as the "Taiwan version of the Sahara Desert." There is also a #国圣Lighthouse here, which looks very similar to the Tokyo Tower. It was built in the 1950s and 1960s, but due to repeated typhoon attacks, the entire lighthouse sank into the sea. The current lighthouse was rebuilt. #100TravelWays #GoodPlacesForFamily #TainanAttractions #TainanTravel

From the bus stop outside Chihkan Tower, you can take bus No. 99 to Qigu Salt Mountain, which takes about an hour.

Visitors can not only climb the salt mountain but also experience the work of salt workers from the past, such as carrying, weighing, and using the dragon bone cart.

It used to be the largest salt field in Taiwan, but it is now closed and has been turned into a salt theme park. On the premises, there is a pure white mountain made of salt about 20 meters high, which you can climb. The facility has a salt mountain, an exhibition corner, a salt-making experience corner, a trolley train, a large maneki-neko (beckoning cat), and more. The shop has many salt products, and it seems that many people come to the park for those. Access: Take the 99 Taiwan Tourist Bus from Tainan Station and get off at the Qigu Salt Mountain bus stop.

#hiddengems While in Tainan, one of the tourist spots is the Qigu Salt Mountain. Originally the location where the salt fields were for the production of salt, this place has since become a tourist recreation spot for visitors to climb up the mountain of salt. There is also a shop selling products made of salt, and an exhibition hall with sculptures made of salt.

Qigu Salt Mountain was originally a salt storage site. The salt has naturally crystallized and hardened due to years of storage. Taiwan Salt used this property to create a salt mountain that tourists can climb⛰️ The Qigu Salt Mountain Park is very large, and the most classic one is the salt mountain in the picture. In addition to the salt mountain, there are many installation arts and amusement facilities here. It should be no problem to take an hour or two. In addition, I highly recommend the seaweed popsicles unique to the salt mountain. It tastes so good. 🤤 Address: No. 66, Yancheng Village, Qigu District, Tainan City Tickets: 50 yuan per person, but the interesting thing is that those who ride motorcycles or drive into the park only need to pay a cleaning fee of 50-100 yuan Parking lot: There is a parking lot and the price includes the ticket #Taiwan Local Tour #Tainan #Qigu Salt Mountain #Qigu Visitor Center

Qiguyan Mountain, or Qigu Salt Mountain, is a curious Taiwanese tourist attraction. The large mound of salt looks like snow at first. Basically the thing to do here is walk up and onto the massive salt pile and then pose for a bunch of photos. Be careful with delicate clothing though because the salt gets all over everything. #taiwan  #triplocal
