The famous "Blueprint" attraction on Tainan’s Haian Road, a beloved spot among visitors, is set to lose its iconic blue wall as the building’s owner plans to sell the property. After standing for 10 years, the blue wall will soon be painted white, a change that has left many tourists who have visited the Tainan Blueprint and those in the art and cultural circles feeling quite saddened.

The Haian Road Art Street project was launched ten years ago and has since become a must-visit destination for travelers to Tainan. The unique blue wall of the Blueprint has been a favorite backdrop for photos, and the area around it has also hosted restaurants, handmade goods shops, and other attractions loved by visitors, giving the entire street a distinctive and leisurely atmosphere. It has also revitalized the nearby Shennong Street, injecting new energy and elements into the old buildings.
