In addition to Kaohsiung’s well-known harbor style, romantic Xiziwan Beach, and the nearby Pier 2 Art Zone, which form a cultural and creative cluster, there is also “Viken Tea Art” which offers tea classes and four-season tea party experiences in the alleys of Yancheng.

There is also "Liuchuanggongyuan Glass Art Promotion and Teaching Center" where visitors can create glass pendants using the first microwave kiln in Taiwan.
