| Chikan Tower | ||||||||||||||||
|
According to the entrance ticket, Chikan Tower is the landmark of Tainan, Taiwan, and is its most famous historic site. In 1653 the Dutch built "Fort Providentia" in this area, and the Chinese named it "Tower of Savages" or "Tower of Red-haired Barbarians." I'm not so sure that "tower" is a good description, but I found the wooden detail quite impressive, as I hope to share with you. | |||||||||||||||
