The Hayashi Department Store is a five-storey building in Tainan's West Central District, designed by Umezawa Sutejirō and opened by the Japanese merchant Hayashi Hōichi in December 1932 with one of Taiwan's first passenger lifts. Restored and reopened in 2014, it sells Taiwanese crafts and food and keeps a small Shinto shrine and an observation deck on its roof.
Chihkan Tower stands on the site of Fort Provintia, the outpost the Dutch built in 1653 on the mainland opposite Fort Zeelandia, in what is now Tainan's West Central District. Arched brick remains of the Dutch walls lie beneath two Qing-era pavilions, the Haishen Temple and the Wenchang Pavilion, set in a garden with nine stone tablets carried on stone turtles.
The Tainan Art Museum occupies the former Tainan Police Station, an Art Deco building of the early 1930s by Umezawa Sutejirō, the architect of the nearby Hayashi Department Store. Restored and opened as a museum in 2018, it shows Taiwanese art from its collection in changing exhibitions and runs an art conservation and research centre.
