It is no doubt that you will see a lot of relics related to Zheng Chenggong 鄭成功 in Tainan. At the end of the Qing dynasty, the government approved it as an official cult because many local Taiwanese worshiped him for his efficacy in protection. Of course, he also protected Zen master Yinyuan traveling to Japan. I have a whole chapter 3 on his relation with Yinyuan in my book Leaving for the Rising Sun. Here is a guide to the famous shrines in Tainan about Zheng Chenggong.
