The Sicao Green Tunnel is a mangrove area located behind the Sicao Dazhong Temple, featuring a river ecosystem rich in mangrove wetlands. Visitors can take a bamboo raft tour to delve into and learn more about it.
Each boat can accommodate 30 people, and everyone is required to wear a life jacket; conical hats are available on board for sun protection, head covering, or photo-taking; during the boat ride, there are spots where you need to duck to avoid branches, which is quite amusing 😂.
The guide will introduce the river's ecosystem, including four types of mangroves: black mangrove, pencil mangrove, river mangrove, and olive mangrove; sometimes different species of birds can be seen along the riverbanks.
There is a sperm whale exhibition hall here, which you can visit along the way. Showing your boat ticket allows free entry, otherwise, there is a charge of NT$10.

Amazing Cruise at Sicao Green Tunnel
#winhkflight
Address: No. 360, Dazhong Rd, Annan District, Tainan City, Taiwan 709
Highlights: The Sicao Green Tunnel is like a small Amazon jungle river cruise adventure. First of all, you have to purchase tickets and then line up in front of the entrance. I recommend you to go there as earlier as possible, because the queue can get long.
There is a tour guide on the boat to explain to us about unique mangroves and creatures living around there during the cruise. The boat was passing by mangrove tree branches closely so we had to watch out though it was not so dangerous, rather to say it was thrilling! It is a relaxing place to get rid of all stresses from my busy life by seeing this green place.
This also makes me cant wait to capture the beauty of Hong Kong's natural landscapes through photography.

Traversing through greenery in Tainan
#wheretogo
The Sicao Green Tunnel in Tainan is one of the local must see attractions for those who visit Tainan. Apparently, it is currently privately owned and managed by the big temple located next to this attraction. This place is not really accessible on weekdays, as there is only one bus service that brings you directly to this place, hence hiring a private driver or self drive is recommended to come here. The boat ride along the river among the serene greenery was a treat to the soul, yet it was also informative as the guide dished out interesting facts about the Green Tunnel and the different types of plants and birds. Admission fee is required to take the boat ride.
