Tainan Travel

Build in 1950, Chuan Mei Theater is one of the oldest second-run theaters in Tainan. The theater is often mentioned by Li Ang the movie director as the place that nurtured his movie-making ambitions. The most distinctive feature of Chuan Mei Theater is its continued use of hand-painted movie posters so even the latest 3D animated movies are given a Taiwanese hand-painted make-over. Look up as you pass by to check out its hand-painted movie posters - they are now a rare sight in Taiwan and the world.
