Dayuan Park Introduction
Yuan Garden, nestled by the Old Street Creek, is an ideal destination that combines recreation, sports, and play. Covering an area of 1.62 hectares, the park boasts rich natural landscapes and comprehensive recreational facilities. It features expansive green spaces planted with trees such as Melaleuca, Taiwanese Honeylocust, and African Mahogany, along with shrubs like Lantana and Barnyard Grass, showcasing different natural sceneries with the changing seasons. In August 2020, Yuan Garden reopened with a fresh appearance after renovations. New additions include wooden rest platforms and a pebble landscape slide, with a broad sliding surface design that allows children to enjoy sliding fun while parents can comfortably accompany them from the adjacent platform, watching the joyful moments of their children. The children's play area in the park is well-equipped with various facilities, including slides, two climbing frames of different sizes, swings, and more, suitable for kids of all ages to explore and challenge themselves. On hot summer afternoons, consider taking your kids to the nearby Taoyuan City Library, Dayuan Branch, to enjoy the air conditioning while browsing books before returning to the park to continue playing as temperatures drop. Yuan Garden is not only a paradise for children but also a great place for the elderly to engage in recreational activities. The park features a senior wellness center, croquet court, and fitness facilities, providing a comfortable activity space for seniors. Additionally, the elegantly designed Japanese-style pavilion offers ample space for multiple families to rest and chat, making it an excellent gathering spot for friends and relatives. Besides the park's facilities, there are also rich attractions nearby that can be linked into a day trip itinerary. The nearby Dayuan Wet Market offers various local snacks and fresh ingredients, allowing visitors to satisfy their taste buds while enjoying the day. Whether for family outings, leisure sports, or simply looking for a place to relax, Yuan Garden is an excellent choice. Here, you can bask in the embrace of lush nature, spend quality time with family, and enjoy leisurely moments in the park!
