【台南】府城漫遊記之海安路印象－il Giardino Romantico

小時候對『台南』的印象就只有：1. 是舅舅住的地方 2. 去外婆家可以換車的地方。漸漸地開始有當地的朋友後，才開始一點一滴的慢慢的認識這個可愛的城市。大家都說台南是個好地方。我想這句話應該沒有人會否認。我們常聽人說台北哪裡不好、高雄哪裡不好，卻是很少聽人嫌棄台南。這個可愛的城市，真的很值得你一來再來，而且每一次，都要慢慢地，才會真正體會到台南的精隨。

It used to be that my only impressions on Tainan was that it was where one of my uncles lived, and that it was where I could transfer coach to granny's. Later on, as I gained my own Tainan friends, I had the chance to get to know the city, little by little. Everyone would say that Tainan is such a wonderful place. In fact, I don't think anyone would deny that. We've all heard complaints about Taipei and Kaohsiung, but we rarely hear people complain about Tainan. This lovely city surely deserves multiple visits, and each time, make sure that you slow your pace down, in order to really experience the essence of the city.

這些照片攝於「海安路」。許多建築在一群藝術家的創作下起死回生，這裡成了熱鬧的小地方。沿途也會看到許多拍照的人在這兒閒晃。

These pictures were taken along Hai-an Road. These buildings were revived by a group of artists, and eventually, the place became a popular site for photo shooting, or just wandering around.

台南應該是全台灣新舊融合最完善的地方了吧！如何將新與舊融合卻一點都不衝突，台南辦到了。

I think Tainan must be the epitome of where the old and the new could coexist in harmony. There isn't the slightest bit of clash between the old and the new.

其實都是老舊建築，但是加上一點鮮豔色彩，就變得煥然一新。

These buildings are all old ones, but with a bit of bright colours, they become a brand new site of attraction!

在這裡，你可是要隨時留意著一些小細節。往往這些都是最搶眼的，卻是最容易被錯過的。

You must keep your eyes open for the smallest details, as these are often the most easily neglected.

就連孩子們的笑容，也成了最搶鏡頭的一幕。

The innocent smiles of children are also a sight that makes the whole picture complete.

無論是單獨或是結伴，總是要慢下腳步細細品嘗慢活滋味。

Whether on your own, or with friends, slow down your pace and enjoy the laid-back moment.

無論是白天、傍晚、或黑夜，這裡留著不一樣的驚喜等著你發掘。

Whether day, dusk, or night, the place has all kinds of suprises waiting for you to discover.

這陣子聽說將海安路重新熱鬧化最大工程的藍海圖即將走入歷史。雖然不是台南人，雖然至今這作品也已經掉漆，色彩不比以往鮮豔，但還是稍稍覺得有點小不捨。

Recently, I've heard that this work of art, known as Blue Print, is about to become history. Although I am not from Tainan, and although the work has lost a bit of its magnificence, still, it's a pity to let it go. After all, this was the work that made the revival of this neighbourhood possible, right?

不過台南仍舊還是值得一來再來的好地方。感覺，他是一個將全台的好全部聚集在一地的精華地帶。也難怪，無論到了哪裡，周末假日總是會擠滿了人潮。

Nonetheless, Tainan remains a place that is worth keep returning. It's as though, Tainan has gathered all the best of Taiwan into a single place. No wonder, no matter where you go, each of the attractions will be crowded with people!
