Anping District, Administrative district in Tainan City, Taiwan

Anping District spans 11.07 square kilometers along the western coast of Tainan, featuring both modern urban areas and historical structures from different periods.

Fort Zeelandia, constructed by the Dutch East India Company in 1624, marked the beginning of European colonial presence in Taiwan and later became Anping Fort.

The district contains numerous temples, including the Anping Tianhou Temple, where residents honor Mazu, the traditional guardian deity of seafarers and merchants.

Visitors can reach Anping via Provincial Highway 1 from the Yongkang Interchange or take public buses from Tainan Station to explore local attractions.

The former Tait & Company Merchant House presents a combination of Western and Eastern architectural elements, reflecting the district's trading history.
