EP48 Tainan Anping District | The Frozen River

from Bao Island Storyteller: Journey to the West

Episode 48 heads out to Anping — the old port district of Tainan, where the first permanent Chinese settlement in Taiwan was established. Anping Old Street is the oldest street in Taiwan, running through what was once the heart of a harbour city, and nearby Yuguang Island offers sunsets over the coastal lagoon. Over golden shrimp crackers and plump Anping shrimp rolls, we follow the pilgrims to one of their most helpless moments: the carp demon freezes the river, Tang Monk crosses on the ice, falls through, and is dragged to the bottom — and for once, Sun Wukong genuinely can't help him.Location: Anping DistrictFood: Anping Shrimp Crackers | Anping Shrimp Rolls
