Tainan City is actively promoting educational tourism in Tainan to Japan. This month (October), a team of nearly 200 students from Kamibe Asahi High School in Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan visited from the 15th to the 16th for a two-day and one-night trip to Tainan. Here During the period, we arranged to visit Chihkan Tower, a famous historical attraction in Tainan, and also arranged to interact with students from sister school Jiaqi High School. Mayor Huang Weizhe specially participated in the welcome ceremony held by Jiaqi High School today (16th), demonstrating the great importance he attaches to the international promotion of educational tourism in Tainan. Mayor Huang Weizhe pointed out that educational travel and international exchange activities are not only beneficial to the growth of students from both sides, but also It can further promote the visibility of Tainan's tourism in the world. With the arrival of the international student team, the local historical attractions, cultural activities and food will attract more international tourists, further enhancing Tainan's popularity and attractiveness, and looking forward to overseas education. The visit of the tour group not only becomes a valuable opportunity for students to learn, but also becomes an important driver of promoting the local tourism economy, allowing more young generations to understand the cultural charm of Tainan.

Tainan City Mayor Huang Weizhe specially expressed his gratitude to the principal and teachers of Shenbianxu High School for arranging Tainan as the first city to visit in the itinerary, and thanked Jiaqi High School for carefully arranging exchange activities among students. Tainan City is the first city in Taiwan to integrate with international standards. Its long history and accumulated cultural and tourism assets make Tainan a charming city with rich tourism and learning resources. It is an excellent place for students to experience and learn while traveling. From the Chihkan Tower, an ancient building from the Ming and Zheng dynasties, to attractions with deep roots in Japan, such as the Garden Waterway Museum on the Hill, which was preserved from the tap water supply facility during the Japanese colonial period, and Lin Department Store, the second department store in Taiwan, each attraction carries a unique cultural heritage. With a unique cultural pulse, students can learn through field exploration. I hope that after all students get to know Tainan through this educational tour, they can share the charm of Tainan with their relatives and friends in Japan, and have the opportunity to travel to Tainan in more depth in the future.

Lin Guohua, director of the Tourism Bureau, said that Tainan is rich in educational tourism resources and has many historical monuments and temples worth exploring, such as the Confucius Temple, Chihkan Tower, Anping Castle, Grand Tianhou Temple, Tainan City Art Museum, etc. In addition to historical sites, there are more than 20 local tourist factories in Tainan, including Chimei Food Happiness Factory and Wanguo Tong Tourist Factory, which were selected as international highlight tourist factories, providing students with opportunities to understand the industry and experience handmade DIY. In addition, Tainan’s natural landscapes cannot be ignored. The Sicao Green Tunnel and Qigu Lagoon in Taijiang National Park are famous for their mangrove ecology and are ideal places to explore natural ecology. Sharon Smart Green Energy Science City is also the best choice for students to study science and technology. The attractiveness of diversified tourism has made Tainan an ideal overseas educational tourism destination. As part of promoting Tainan’s international tourism, we will continue to work with the International Education Exchange Alliance and schools in Tainan to promote educational tourism in the city. .

According to the Tourism Bureau, Taiwan can be reached from Japan in as little as 3 hours, and it has a transportation advantage in promoting overseas educational travel in Asian countries such as Japan and South Korea. Among them, Tainan’s diverse resources have been recognized by Japanese scholars, and Japanese and Taiwan educational travel support scholars Wired-SNET Taiwan has recommended 35 attractions in Tainan suitable for educational travel to Japan on its official website. We look forward to more overseas schools coming to Tainan for international school exchanges and sightseeing activities in the future. The city government continues to promote Tainan to the international tourism market, and through advertising, charter flight itineraries, and enhancing Tainan's international tourism reception capacity, it is ready to bring more and more exciting trips to the ancient capital of Tainan to international tourists.
