Budai Scenic Park (High Heels Church) Introduction
The High Heel Church has a striking design, and the construction of the Happiness Icon Project was quite challenging. Over 320 pieces of glass, varying in size and installation angle, had to be shaped and curved to overcome the form of a high heel, requiring meticulous attention to detail. In June 2016, it was recognized by the Guinness World Records as the largest high heel-shaped building in the world. In Taiwan, before a bride enters her husband's home, she must step on high heels to break tiles, symbolically discarding all bad past. The Happiness Icon High Heel was built on land where salt production was once prosperous, shining under the bright sun like salt crystals, with each grain of crystallized salt representing the fruitful efforts of ancestors. The broken tiles under the high heel of happiness have all been swept away, symbolizing that the Yunlin-Chiayi-Tainan area is about to embark on a new era; this place is the starting point of happiness!
