The original pebble path of Shennong street totaling hundreds meters long in length is laid with new stonework and the passage is now decorated with gorgeous box lanterns along the side to illuminate the night. By nightfall, the street is lit with glimmering lights emitted from shops and street lanterns to contrast with long silhouettes cast by the buildings creating a dazzling scene of chiaroscuro.

According to the 2012 census, there are only 2963 black-faced spoonbills around the world. The issue of this restricted population is so serious that the black-faced spoonbill has been classified as the endangered species by IUCN in 2005. The spoonbill has been listed as the protected species by many countries. Between October and April, over 50% of the black-faced spoonbills population migrates to the estuary of the Tsengwen River in Tainan. However, spoonbill is not the only rare species to choose this wonderful estuary as its wintering site. The unique landscape of shoals and lagoons with abundant ecological resources make this estuary friendly to other migratory birds, for instance Saunders Gull. Starting this October, the 2013 Black-faced Spoonbill Conservation Festival, organised by the Tainan Wildlife Conservation Society (TWCS), aims to incite the general public to discover and love this endangered species and promote the ecological study of this area. The TWCS welcomes everyone to join the event, 2013 Cycling for Blackfaced Spoonbill, which takes place in Qigu Black-faced Spoonbills Reserve on November 9th. Other than conventional bird watching event, the organiser combines cycling, bird watching and sightseeing to provide a new experience of bird watching tour.
