In the morning, the Confucius Temple is so quiet and quiet, Tainan must not miss
If you come to Confucius Temple at 8 o'clock in the morning, the courtyard door is open, and some of the church doors have not been opened yet, so the Confucius Temple is particularly quiet. Few tourists, even rare others, only those who manage the Confucius Temple are cleaning the ground and finishing the lawn. No one spoke, and I heard the sound of the broom brushing on the brick road.
The Confucius Temple in Tainan is the first Confucius Temple built in Taiwan. The establishment of the Confucius Temple in Tainan marks the official entry of Confucianism into Taiwan and has become an important milestone in the history of Taiwan's educational development. The Tainan Confucius Temple is also the most ancient temple in Taiwan with a relatively complete history.
Into the temple of the temple, in fact, there are no tickets to charge, you can go for a while. For the fee, only when you want to enter Dacheng Hall, you will need to buy tickets, 25 Taiwan dollars. It's cheap but it's not worth it... I don't go to worship the Confucius's literati bachelor, and rushed out of it and went out to the Confucius Temple.

Memories of Tainan Confucius Temple in the Rain, A Meeting Point of Eastern and Western Cultures.
At the end of June, I visited the Tainan Confucius Temple with a few French friends. We were looking forward to strolling through this culturally rich historical site and experiencing the essence of Confucian thought. Unexpectedly, a thunderstorm broke out in the afternoon. The sound of the rain echoed under the ancient eaves, adding a unique charm. We had to take shelter in the temple, quietly admiring the surrounding carved beams and painted rafters, as if we were immersed in the river of time. Although we couldn't fully explore the site, the sudden rain allowed us to experience another kind of tranquility and solemnity of the Confucius Temple.

The Tainan Confucius Temple stands as a venerable symbol of reverence for Confucian teachings and wisdom in Tainan. Stepping into its serene grounds, we were immediately struck by the tranquility and solemnity that permeated the air. The elegant architecture, with its intricate carvings and graceful pavilions, paid homage to the esteemed philosopher and his enduring legacy. As we wandered through the temple complex, we encountered ancient rituals and ceremonies that have been observed for centuries, deepening our understanding of Confucian principles and their significance in Taiwanese culture. Surrounded by lush gardens and quiet courtyards, we found a sanctuary for contemplation and reflection, where the timeless wisdom of Confucius resonated with our souls.
Leaving the Tainan Confucius Temple behind, our hearts filled with reverence and inspiration, we eagerly anticipated our next adventure: the ancient ruins of Angkor Wat in Cambodia. Envisioning ourselves amidst towering temples and intricately carved stone facades, we yearned to immerse ourselves in the rich history and spiritual heritage of this UNESCO World Heritage site. From witnessing breathtaking sunrises over the temple spires to exploring hidden treasures in the surrounding jungle, we looked forward to a journey that would ignite our senses and nourish our spirits. With anticipation coursing through our veins, we embraced the promise of discovery and enlightenment that lay ahead in the mystical realm of Angkor Wat.
