Tainan Attractions

水晶教堂矗立湖畔上

The Crystal Church is located at the boundary between the Northern Zhuang Salt Fields and the Central Zhuang Salt Fields. The western coast is open and flat, and in earlier years, the largest landscape was the salt fields, where the prominent features were salt mounds. The Crystal Church is designed to resemble a large mound of salt connecting smaller mounds. The main color is white, symbolizing salt, inspired by the translucent appearance of crystalline salt, combined with the church's mission of comforting countless patients suffering from black foot disease, hence the name Crystal Church. Completed in 2014, the Crystal Church has become a popular spot for wedding photography, offering a wide and distant view, where one can gaze towards the Xishan Mountain, “Dog Mist” and the Brine Tower to the south, and also access the Jingzicuo Salt Fields to the west.
