During the Japanese colonial period, due to the influence of Japanese culture, tatami floors and mattresses became the main lifestyle style of every household, which promoted the planting and weaving techniques of rush. However, as times changed, the demand for rush tatami decreased, and the skills of rush craftsmen gradually declined. The Tainan City Government Tourism Bureau launched the "2023 Exploring Tainan Tourism Endemic Species" slash craftsman tour, planning to cooperate with the Xianglin District Xilin Community Development Association to take tourists to the "Xilin Rush Workshop" to learn about the craft of rush weaving. Value, and through slash experience, experience the true skill of rush weaving firsthand.
Tainan Mayor Huang Weizhe said that in addition to food and religion, Tainan has many other local characteristics, and the rush workshop of Xianglin Community in Xi'an District is an iconic attraction. In the 1940s of the Republic of China, rush weaving was a skill that many people relied on to make a living, but it gradually declined due to changes in the times. The rush craftsmen of the rush workshop are craftsmen with profound rush weaving skills. They are dedicated to hand-weaving with rush materials. They are representatives of an era and worthy of tourists' in-depth exploration.
Lin Guohua, director of the Tourism Bureau, said that the "Rush Workshop" is the only rush production workshop in Taiwan. After renovating an old Sanheyuan house, it has been transformed into a base for promoting local industry and cultural inheritance. The rush is woven into straw hats, straw Bags, straw mats and other daily necessities are very practical, both retro and trendy. In addition to the experience of rush craftsmen, this event also takes tourists to the nearby Beitou Yangpingpu Cultural Park in Jiali District to learn about the traditions of the Siraya Pingpu people. History and culture, tourists are also arranged to dine in the nostalgic barn restaurant, which was converted from the old warehouse of the Westport Farmers' Association. The barn restaurant is famous for its signature sesame oil chicken pot made from Westport's specialty flax. It features two dishes of dry soup and sesame oil. The aroma is overflowing and the aroma is compelling. The overall itinerary allows tourists to have fun and eat satisfactorily!
The Tourism Bureau stated that today is the winter solstice. When you come to Tainan, you must try Tainan's unique "Winter Solstice Bao". In ancient times, "Winter Solstice Bao" is actually "Cai Kueh", which is made of glutinous rice and filled with various vegetable ingredients. , such as celery, kohlrabi, cabbage and peanut powder, etc., but because they are not easy to preserve, they were later replaced with flour crust, kneaded into half-moon-shaped ingot-shaped "vegetable buns", and then extended to meat and vegetarian flavors. The fillings wrapped in each family are different. The vegetarian flavor uses mushrooms and vegetarian ingredients as the main ingredients, while the meat flavor has pork, mushrooms, dried shrimps, salted egg yolk and other fillings. After the Winter Solstice, the whole family will use it to worship ancestors. They gather together to eat sweet glutinous rice balls with salty Winter Solstice "vegetable buns" and "cai kueh", which is the tradition of "eating sweet and salty"!
