日治時期臺南開元寺在殖民官方主導下被納入臺灣鐵道觀光系統中，成 為臺南之重要觀光地景。為瞭解其背後的發展因素，本文主要從日治時期開 元寺的區位變遷、佛寺與日本佛教宗派和殖民政府的交流互動，以及《臺灣 鐵道旅行案內》文本形塑下的佛寺等三部分作討論。研究結果發現，日治時 期開元寺區位條件的改變、開元寺面對日本佛教宗派和殖民官方所產生的文 化涵化現象，以及《臺灣鐵道旅行案內》的宣傳報導，係構成日治時期開元 寺受到殖民官方關注，被納入臺灣鐵道觀光系統，成為臺南重要觀光遊憩地 景之重要因素。

Under the leadership of the colonial government, Tainan Kaiyuan Temple( 開元寺 ) was included in Taiwan's railway tourism system and became an important tourist and recreational spot in Tainan during Japanese colonial period. In order to understand the reason behind, the three main points to be discussed in this article are: First, the location shifts of Kaiyuan Temple under the Tainan urban plan. Second, the phenomenon of cultural acculturation when Kaiyuan Temple faced the Japanese Buddhist sects and colonial government. Third, "Taiwan Railway Travel Guidebook " how to shape Kaiyuan Temple into a tourist attraction. The results of the study found that Tainan’s urban planning and transportation innovation, the phenomenon of cultural acculturation in the face of foreign culture and colonists, and the promotion and reporting of the "Taiwan Railway Travel Guidebook" are important factors in the development of Kaiyuan Temple into a colonial tourist landscape.
