The First REELS Audio Created for an Ancient Capital Invites You To Experience TrulyTainan.

Acclaimed musician Emily Pu was invited by the Tainan Tourism Bureau to compose TrulyTainan theme music for her hometown. With deep feeling for her hometown, she especially took as inspiration Fucheng's rich cultural heritage and from more than 100 Tainan temple fair videos sampled sounds of classic traditional instruments, then used western electronic music to rearrange it with varied rhythms and diverse sounds that display a spirit of innovation without forgetting one's roots. Several kinds of traditional and popular musical elements are brought together, as if shuttling the traveler between the remains of old houses and modern arts. Please type in "tainantravels" to access the official account, where users can freely store and with video editing create and share their own go REELS videos.

Tainan is known for its "Delicious delicacies that heal the soul."

The city has received recognition from the world-famous gourmet travel review magazine the Michelin Green Guide and features in this year's Bib Gourmand list of recommendations as a must-visit city for international visitors to Taiwan. CNN calls Tainan "Taiwan's capital of food." A columnist for the US Wall Street Journal recommended Tainan as a world-class food museum. Visit the city to find out why international foodies say "You haven't tried the authentic Taiwanese taste until you feast in Tainan."

Before the pandemic the number of Thailand tourists coming to Taiwan grew by an average of 43% for three consecutive years. When the pandemic struck the hotel industry, only Tainan kept up its occupation rate at the top among cities in Taiwan, adding 97 new hotels and hostels with revenues up NT$1.21 billion over the first half of the year. According to Taiwan citizens' tourism survey results, during 2020-2021, Tainan City was for two consecutive years one of Taiwan's favorite cities to visit. It is a top city for post-pandemic travel in Taiwan, boasting mountainous, coastal, as well as cultural landscapes, all within a day's reach.
