The Tainan Municipal Baseball Stadium is a sports facility with a grass playing field located in Tainan's South District. The field dimensions measure approximately 339 feet down each line and 400 feet to center field, with seating capacity for around 12,000 spectators.
The facility was built in 1931 on the site of a former baseball field from the Japanese colonial period. It underwent significant infrastructure improvements during the 1970s.
The stadium has been home to the Uni-President Lions since 1990 and draws baseball fans from across Taiwan. It serves as a gathering place where the local community comes together to watch professional matches and support their team.
The stadium is located on Jiankang Road in the South District and offers food, beverages, restrooms, and merchandise facilities. Visitors should note that its proximity to the nearby airport creates some unique features in the building design.
Proximity to Tainan Airport creates unusual building restrictions, as lighting poles and support structures cannot exceed the flight paths overhead. This makes the facility a notable example of how air traffic shapes local infrastructure decisions.
