Da-jing-tou

the Da-jing-tou, or literally the big well pier, which locates today at the junction of the Min Chuan Road and the Yong Fu Road was one of the start points of Tainan city along with the Fort Provindia and the Ford Zeelandia. Yet it's badly treated, and shamefully disregarded. Cars, motorcycles even trunks run over it and damaged its weak protection. In a city dedicated to cold blood motor-vehicles in stead of living creatures, one can expect less than that.

古都臺南的源頭，大井頭，在以車輛優先為規畫考量的城市中所能得到的對待也僅能如此了。在經年車輛的摧殘下，除了井緣的石材早已崩壞而替換為混凝土外，井口的格柵也被車輪壓垮。然而，除了寒酸的兩個三角錐外，該有的修復與尊重又在哪裡呢？當市政府打著歷史的名義招攬著搭遊覽車或私家休旅車南下的旅客們時，又該如何讓旅客們了解大井頭與熱蘭遮城、普羅民遮城般同身為歷史起點呢？
