Three hundred years ago, while Taiwan was still in a slumber, Spain was a major sea power and traded with the Chinese and Japanese. Its ships avoided the eye of the Dutch in Tainan's Anping Port and sailed along the east coast to Keelung in the north. The Spanish controlled the north of Taiwan while the Dutch controlled the south.
三百多年前，當台灣還在沉睡之際，歐洲海權大國西班牙人已前進中、日兩國謀求貿易，由總督率領艦隊，避開台南安平港荷蘭人的耳目，越過東海岸，進駐北部的基隆港，和荷蘭人形成南北分庭抗禮之勢。
