This year's 10th Taiwan-Japan Exchange Summit was held at the Formosa Yacht Hotel on July 29. Following the 4th Taiwan-Japan Exchange Summit held in Kaohsiung in 2018, it was the second time it was held in Taiwan. A total of 100 people from Japan Participants included 3 members of the House of Representatives, 20 prefectural councils, 27 city, town and village councils, 3 local municipalities and 18 Taiwan friendly groups, a total of 433 people, setting a new record for being held in Taiwan. In order to allow distinguished guests from Japan to have an in-depth understanding of the history and culture of Tainan, the Tainan City Government Tourism Bureau carefully designed the ancient capital tour itinerary, aiming to enhance exchanges between the two parties and make Japanese distinguished guests feel the warm hospitality at home.
Tainan Mayor Huang Weizhe said that Tainan is rich in historical, cultural resources and delicious food. This tour of the ancient capital will arrange for Japanese VIPs to take a Tainan double-decker bus. Along the way, they will travel through the Anping Canal, which is full of historical memories of the city, and visit the Confucius Temple, the first school in Taiwan. The second museum of the Tainan City Art Museum, designed by Japanese architect Mr. Shigeru Ban, has a deep connection with Japan. He also arranged to visit the Tainan 400 special exhibition - "We Come from the River: Thousands of Years of River Basin, Shared Culture", and many art works also evoked the theme. The curiosity of the Japanese guests was aroused, and they kept praising the exhibition as meaningful and interesting. The space in the museum was spacious and comfortable, which also impressed the Japanese guests.
Representative Kazuhide Fujita of the Nagoya City Council who participated in the visit said that this time the city government arranged for the Art Museum 2 to welcome guests with the work "Clouds" by Japanese artist Futoko Tani. The shape of a cloud that sprays water mist like cotton candy from the ground impressed the Japanese guests. They were so amazed that they picked up their phones and kept taking pictures, praising Tainan!
When visiting the city of gourmet food, of course you can’t miss a variety of delicacies and snacks. The city government specially prepared popsicles and Kelin Taiwanese buns as snacks to warm the stomachs of distinguished guests. They also arranged to try Tainan’s local delicacies at Qingping Seafood, a local restaurant in Tainan. Representative Hiroyuki Iida of the Sapporo City Council said that it was great to have a popsicle after the visit, and that the food in Tainan is sweet, fresh and delicious, and he personally witnessed Tainan’s title as the Sugar City.
Director Lin Guohua of the Tourism Bureau said that it was a great honor to welcome Japanese distinguished guests and design such a rich itinerary for them. Tainan is renowned as both an ancient cultural capital and a gourmet city. Tainan’s warm climate is also very suitable for Japanese tourists.
