He said that the Chinese New Year will be accompanied by the Liantan Lantern Festival, and the surrounding palaces and temples will be lit up, making this place full of very vigorous and powerful Taiwanese lantern festivals, and it will be a very different kind of lantern festival.

During the Chinese New Year period from now until the Lantern Festival, whether it is a business district or a New Year’s market next to Liantan, I believe it will attract many people. The village, as well as the surrounding delicacies, Chinese and foreign bakeries, fantasy paradise, etc., are very suitable for adults and children to come and walk together.

Chen Qimai said that he is an old Zuoying local and has lived in Zuoying, Kaohsiung for the longest time. If you want to come to Liantan, it is recommended that you come in from Zuoying Road, because there are restaurants where you can eat. Come in and walk around after eating, and eat before going out if you are hungry.

If you come in from Cuihua Road, because it is a main road, the traffic flow is relatively fast, and there is no food there, and there are more old Zuoying.

Chen Qimai further mentioned that the three places with the most Chinese New Year flavor in downtown Kaohsiung, one is Sanfeng Middle Street, the other is Xinle Street in Yancheng District, and the other is Old Zuoying Liantan. They are all very interesting and interesting. Taiwan taste, if you want to come, you must come here, he sincerely recommends, if you want to worship, you can also come to Liantan, this is the place with the most temples in the world.

Zuoying Lianchitan Dragon and Tiger Tower is one of Kaohsiung's landmark attractions.
