4 months agoA large artwork, with stairs so you can go up "inside" the fish (or whale?). It's novel but a short stop is all that's needed.

a year agoThis Historic Harbor Park is nice to walk at night with the seabreeze. Well litted and clean, it also presents the history of Tainan and Taiwan engraved on the tiles as you walk. It's combined with the Lin Mo-Niang Park where antique real antique aeroplanes are exhibited.

6 years agoVery good hot spot for tourists, a large Artistic whale appears in the Anping Gangbin Historical Park, composed of 3,700 pieces of stainless steel. The whales open their mouths wide. Visitors can board up the second floor to enjoy watching the sunset view of Anping Port and even after sunset a new atmosphere of Anping with evening lights are still Very attractive. The abdomen is designed as a Taiwan island, consisting of 448 pieces of glazed glass, indicating that Taiwan is his heart. It is a difficult challenge to capture the complete island of Taiwan in every corner. When you carefully shoot the sunset, the fish will shake like a sea. A great city, to be able to stay, can accumulate the taste and culture of the guests. When street art becomes a great extension for the public, showing the confidence of the citizens can make the city more beautiful. 非常好的熱點,一隻大鯨魚出現在安平港濱歷史公園,3700條不銹鋼片組成,鯨魚外表張開大大的嘴巴,遊客可以登上一望安平港日落風景,搭配晚上燈光增添安平新氣象,拍照新景點。 腹部設計成一個台灣島,由448片彩釉玻璃組成,表示台灣是他的心臟,各個角落要拍到完整的台灣島是很困難的挑戰。當你認真拍攝夕陽時,魚體會晃動,似像航行大海。 一座偉大的城市,要能適合停留,才能累積出過客的品味與文化。當街頭藝術成為市民絕佳的伸展台,展現市民的自信,可以讓城市更加美麗。
