The healing ancient house in Anping Old Alley: Entering Haishan Pavilion

Anping is not only about the castle and the old street, but also an interesting and artistic old house hidden in this alley - Haishan Hall (also known as Haitan Hall). It was once the guild hall for the soldiers of the Haitan Navy of Fuzhou in the Qing Dynasty who came to Taiwan. Now it accompanies you to roam the past and present in a quiet manner. 🏛️ Historical scroll: from guild hall, house to cultural and creative base First built in 1684, it was a guild hall built by the soldiers of the Haitan Navy of Fujian in the Qing Dynasty stationed in Tainan. It is one of the five halls in Anping  . It was converted into a private house during the Japanese occupation period until it was acquired by the Tainan City Government in 1975 and set up as the "Anping Local Museum". In 1985, local historical materials were officially displayed to the public . In recent years, it has been outsourced for revitalization and operation. In addition to preserving the style of the old house, it has also injected cultural and creative and interactive elements . 🔹 Architectural charm: Sanheyuan, sword lion and sword screen Haishan Pavilion is the largest existing ancient Sanheyuan in Anping, with complete left and right dragon guards. The wall door is decorated with "Anping Sword Lion" and elegant designs such as Bagua windows and bamboo windows. Sword screens are placed in the main hall to ward off evil spirits. Hidden between the blue and white walls, every detail records the tradition and aesthetics of the ancient city. 🎨 Fun in the museum: Ancient house games + cultural and creative small items Walking into the Haishan Pavilion, the big red door and ancient walls are like visiting each other, and Anping cultural and creative products and interesting installations are also exhibited. The museum is equipped with "Birthday Guardian Sword Lion", old-fashioned pinball table and prescription wall, as well as interactive puzzle experience, which makes the ancient house a small time paradise. You can easily visit the ancient monuments, have fun freely and take beautiful photos. 🧭 Slowly stroll in the alleys: Extended itinerary recommendation 1. After visiting the Haishan Pavilion, walk through Anping Old Street, visit Deji Foreign Trade Company and Anping Fort. 2. Visit the Guanyin Pavilion, Miaoshou Palace, Yanping Street Ancient Well and other alley corners . 3. Take a walk in the Grand Canal Museum or the Sunset Viewing Platform in the afternoon, have a cup of coffee and watch the light and shadow of the canal. Haishan Pavilion is not only a historical site exhibition, but also a "secret alley" that combines history, humanities and fun. Come here, you can slow down your pace among the ancient houses and play a dialogue with the past with curiosity. #5月好去处2025
