Qingshan Fishing Port Introduction
Qingkunshan is a fishing village located in the Jiangjun District, where one can feel a strong sense of simplicity and authenticity. The Tainan coastal area has a total of seven fishing ports, among which the Qingshan Fishing Port is situated between the two major fishing ports of Anping and Jiangjun. In the early years, Qingshan Fishing Port was known as "Shrimp Peeling Village," as it is the origin of the popular fire-dried shrimp. The process of making fire-dried shrimp is quite time-consuming, requiring the shells to be peeled and the tendons inside the shrimp to be removed, followed by prolonged sun exposure. Using natural sunlight and sea breeze for seasoning, it preserves the shrimp's fresh sweetness, making it a unique and authentic taste of Taiwan. During the day, visitors can purchase fresh seafood and specialty dried goods at Qingshan Fishing Port, and if lucky, they may participate in the lively seafood auctions. There are also many delicious oyster omelet and seafood restaurants nearby. In the evening, one can enjoy the beautiful sunset views over the salt pans and fishing port. With both fantastic food and scenery, Qingshan Fishing Port is undoubtedly worth a visit!
