在冷颼颼的夜晚,來碗麻油雞蛋麵線是我最大的享受,環視廚房的調味料,特地從崁頂搬回來的胡麻油還剩半瓶,一想到濃郁麻油香能陪伴我度過這個冬天,安心了不少。

Longci, situated southeast of Tainan, is nestled in the hilly region at the southern end of the Alishan Mountain Range, with elevations ranging from 80 to 350 meters. This varied terrain has fostered a diverse array of natural landscapes. The prevalence of mudstone in the area has led to significant erosion from rainwater and streams, resulting in a distinctive badland terrain known as the barren "Moon World." As a result, many residents have moved away, leaving only around 3,000 people, making it the least populated administrative district in Tainan.
Adjacent to Tainan, Cieding is a coastal town renowned for its exceptional offshore fishing grounds and a well-developed harbor constructed from a lagoon. Many residents depend on nearshore fishing for their livelihoods. The highest recorded mullet catch in Taiwan was achieved at Xingda Harbor in Cieding. During the winter mullet season, the streets are often lined with golden mullet roe being sun-dried, signifying the "golden season" for local fishermen.
Beimen, located in the northwestern coastal region of Tainan, is the most developed township for the salt production industry in Taiwan. In the past, nearly every household relied on salt production for their livelihood. Today, it has further developed into a major festival that uses salt as a medium.
Located on the Chianan Plain, Guantian in Tainan has a hot and humid climate that is ideal for growing water caltrops, rice, sugarcane, and mangoes. Guantian has the largest area and highest production of water caltrops in the country, earning it the title "The Land of Water Caltrops."

In addition to the "Three Treasures of Gangshan"—mutton, honey, and soybean paste—the dedicated efforts of a group promoting local culture and history have revealed the region's rich historical landscape to us. This time, we explored Gangshan Old Street, capturing its essence, and also climbed to the top of the Siaogangshan Skywalk. From this vantage point, we could see the entire Kaohsiung.
