Tainan Metropolitan Park(台南都會公園) is Taiwan’s third biggest metropolitan park and the only one with a museum. No matter from which angle you look from in the park, the beautiful white European style building that houses Chimei Museum (奇美博物館) can be seen, giving the feeling of actually being in a park in Europe. Embraced by lush greenery, the pond is large and lovely; it is the home of many birds and small animals and flocks of swans can often be seen paddling along; many egrets also feed at the water’s edge. The park was built using ecological engineering methods and is full of life. Take a walk on the wooden plank trail to enjoy the expansive views, appreciate nature, and also admire the installation art works scattered around which add even more to park’s appeal. Tainan Metropolitan Park is ideal for a relaxing stroll and getting close to nature, and has become popular spot for taking wedding photos; brides in wedding dresses and grooms can often be seen happily taking up various poses.
