Eluanbi lighthouse

On last summer vacation, after visiting Tainan, my friends and I went to visit Kenting National Park. Eluanbi is the southernmost tip of Taiwan. There is also the famous historical building – the Lighthouse (constructed in 1882). This pictures was taken by my friend in front of the Lighthouse. The sunset was very beautiful on that day. We all felt carefree in the afternoon on that day.

Confucian Temple

On last summer vacation, I made a visit to Tainan with my friends. The weather was very clear on that day. My friends and I took a lot of pictures and tasted traditional foods and drinks. There were a lot of the famous scenic spots in Tainan. The Confucian temple is one of them. This temple was not only a temple but also the best school in Taiwan. The stone tablet on this picture is a part of the temple. In the old age, People in the old age should get down from their horses when they saw this tablet.

Benshan Fifth Tunnel

In order to carry out the idea of Ecological Park, the Park works together with Taiwan Sugar Corp. to renovate the old Benshan Fifth Tunnel and open some section as the Tunnel Experience Area to provide the tourists with real-life experience in the tunnel. The tunnel contains exhibits of wax figures to demonstrate the mining process and to simulate miner’s operating situation back then. (The introduction quoted from the Gold Ecological Park)

Gold-refining Building

During the Japanese Colonial Period in Taiwan, the Remains of the Gold Refinery used to be a lodge to accommodate non-local guests. After the restoration of Taiwan from the war with Japan, the Building was used by the Taiwan Metal Mining Company as a gold refinery. Not long afterwards, the refinery was moved to Shuinandong, and the building was used for other purposes. Later, this building was turned into a gold storage, according to the local elderly. It was then used to house the office of the Land Bank of Taiwan to provide services to miners. However, because of its unique style, the building was often used for refining gold. After a full investigation of its history, the building was eventually titled “the Remains of the Gold Refinery” by the Gold Ecological Park. (The introduction quoted from the Gold Ecological Park)
