The Confucius Temple in Tainan City was considered the best school in all of Taiwan with the title of “TopSchool in Taiwan”. There are fairies painted on both sides of the outer gates,suggesting that once students step through the front gates of “Ru De” (入德之門), they should stop having fantasies of the outside world and focus on their studies at school.

昔日台南孔廟為台灣的最高學府,故有「全台首學」的匾額。在兩側石壁上有許多幻想,意味著學子們在踏入「入德之門」後,應斷絕門外的種種幻想,專心學習才是。
