Having trouble figuring out how to spend your National Day holiday? Why not take a relaxing mini trip to Tainan, the city most famous for its distinctive cuisine? These days, Tainan isn’t just about delicious food and unique snacks—the autumn scenery here is simply breathtaking. Scenic Spots also specially collected information on themed activities and special offers at various attractions in Tainan, allowing visitors to fully enjoy their holiday in Tainan. Not only can you savor the local cuisine, but you can also have a fulfilling and great-value fun vacation!

During the cool and crisp autumn season, why not head up to Guanziling to visit a hot spring inn or bathhouse to relax, relieve the fatigue of the workweek, and warm up relationships? Soak in the comforting hot springs to unwind. The annual “Guanziling Hot Spring Food Festival” will be held from the afternoon to the evening of October 7, featuring cosplay competitions and yukata (casual kimono) parties. While enjoying the party music and yukata event, you can also get a free hairstyle styling session from Tainan’s local “Milan Fashion Hairdressing.” You can not only wear the hotel’s unique yukata to walk on stage, enjoy the hot springs, but also take beautiful photos to create lasting memories.

Full of youthful energy, the “2017 Deyuanpi Dutch Village Windmill Festival” kicked off enthusiastically on the first day of the holiday. A series of events based on the concept of “An Adventure in the Dutch Village” will continue non-stop until October 31. Each exhibition area presents different features and interactive fun, aiming to transform visitors into little elves entering the world of giants for an autumn exploration journey. Additionally, the “2017 Tainan City Aquatic Recreation Experience Activity,” combined with the windmill festival, is expanding into its final phase, offering free fun experiences such as canoeing and stand-up paddleboarding. Take advantage of the holiday to visit the rustic and natural pond countryside and enjoy a leisurely exotic atmosphere.
