The Confucious Temple is located in a serene and peaceful park, right in the heart of Tainan. It's nice to stroll around and marvel at its beautiful architecture. When I went there the last time, there was a nice old man giving away Chinese calligraphy he had written himself for free. He then proceeded to tell us the history of the temple. If you go inside the paid temple, check out the lions on the stairs and railings, they all have different facial expressions.
