Xinshe Park Introduction
Have you heard of "Slash Park"? It's located in Pingzhen, Taoyuan, where the 4.6-hectare Xiangshi Park puts on a spectacular show! This place is not only a paradise for children but also a secret base for adults to relax, take beautiful photos, and have fun. From the colorful and playful playground to the attitude-filled extreme sports area, and even the outdoor educational highlights that help you understand the water resource cycle, the content is incredibly rich! An underwater world on land? Kids will never want to go home from the children's playground in Xiangshi Park, featuring an ocean-themed design. On a 3-meter-high painted hill, fish and turtles gather, making it feel like a mini underwater museum on land. Sliding down the slide leads to a sandy pit where kids can be little excavators, digging out their own tiny kingdoms with mini diggers. Still not enough? Come try the 360-degree spinning swing that instantly transforms you into a little flying hero; even adults will want to sneak in a turn! For the thrill-seekers, young people love this area! Who says parks can only be for leisurely walks? At the extreme sports field next to the Southern District Youth Activity Center, the atmosphere switches to "cool" mode. This is the stage for skateboarders and parkour enthusiasts, with graffiti all over the walls adding a trendy vibe; every wall is an Instagram-worthy backdrop. Step on a skateboard or jump on a platform, and even passersby can’t help but take out their phones to capture the moment because this place is truly full of attitude! A large lawn, jogging paths, and bike paths—freedom, that's the most chill rhythm. If you prefer static activities, head to the central lawn of the park! With nice sunlight and a gentle breeze, laying out a picnic mat makes for a perfect afternoon. There's also a bike path and elevated jogging trail, letting you choose between a leisurely stroll or a speedy run. This is the best place to unwind, recharge, and unplug from your phone—whether you're by yourself to clear your mind, catching up with a friend, or having fun with a group—it's all good! Learn while you play! The water here is really insightful. Think parks only have amusement facilities? Wrong! Xiangshi Park, along the Laojie River embankment, has a low-key yet powerful highlight: the combination of a natural ecological pond and a river purification system. This "interstitial natural water quality purification" technology unlocks water purification achievements through microorganisms, allowing cleaner water to flow back into the Laojie River. Sounds complex, right? Seeing it in person makes it clear, and kids can learn the amazing process of "how water can clean itself" while enjoying playtime!
