Blueprint streets
The Blueprint park occupies former judicial dormitories. Its three-dimensional blueprint installation places white lines against blue walls, while murals and other artworks fill shared outdoor spaces. Small creative shops occupy the park’s buildings, giving the old residential area a new role.
Coast and community crafts
Kunxiwan includes Golden Coast (黃金海岸), Xishu Art Village (喜樹藝術聚落) and the Wanli shopping area (灣裡商圈). Near Kunshen’s (鯤鯓) sea-view footbridge, a timber boardwalk follows the seawall for walking and cycling. Beaches provide space for kite flying and seaside strolls. In Xishu, community grandmothers make lifelike fish-shaped pencil cases and bags modelled on vegetables.
