Taiwan Fucheng City Wall South Gate Section remains(臺灣府城城垣南門段殘蹟) are located on Shulin Street in Tainan City, the outer edge facing Shulin Street (樹林街)and the rear connecting to National Tainan Girl’s Senior High School, serving as part of the perimeter wall. The remains were restored according to an ancient method and look basically how they did originally. The internal structure of the wall has been deliberately left exposed in one section to allow observation. The wall runs east to west. The school part is eighty meters long and four meters high and is thebest-preserved section. From its appearance, it is easy to see that the wall was built using concrete and an ancient method. The fact that almost no traces of the old city wall can now be seen in Tainan makes these remains extremely valuable.
