An Evening on Fuqian Road
Fuqian Road passes the Confucius Temple, and several old shops along it stay open late. Start with shrimp bawan, then have angelica duck soup and wok-fried eel, and end with fresh juice.
Getting there
From Tainan Station it is about 20 minutes on foot or a short taxi ride to Kaishan Road by the Confucius Temple.
On the way
- Confucius Temple: Taiwan's oldest Confucian temple, with quiet courtyards across the road from the fruit shop.
- Hayashi Department Store: A restored 1932 department store with a rooftop, open into the evening.
