Zhiben Water Park Introduction
Chihpen Canal Riverside Park is developed by the Taitung Irrigation Association using its affiliated canals in Taitung County. The canal's inlet was originally built during the Japanese occupation period, and before the improvement of the left bank levee, this area was disorganized and desolate, forming a stark contrast with the beautiful scenery of the nearby hotels. After implementing green beautification in accordance with natural ecological methods, it has become a place for visitors to feel nostalgic. This green beautification project covers approximately 1.4 hectares, with lush greenery filled with flowering plants. The park offers various facilities such as healthy walking paths, leisure pavilions, and observation pavilions, along with aesthetic features like small bridges over flowing water, unique stones, and waterwheels, creating a beautiful scenery. You can climb up to the observation pavilion to enjoy the beautiful views of the Chihpen Hot Spring area and the estuary of the Chihpen River, separated by just a stream, or stroll along the healthy walking paths to enjoy a forest bath. From April to July each year, one can witness the spectacular sight of swallows flying and chirping in the sky, immersing oneself in a beautiful painting. The water of Chihpen Canal flows year-round, is clear and icy, and coupled with the gentle breeze, it brings a refreshing sensation. To allow visitors to fully enjoy the scenery at Chihpen Canal Riverside Park, the Taitung Irrigation Association has set up signs and stone pillars engraved with "Chihpen Canal Riverside Park" at the Chihpen Bridge, along with an increasing number of public facilities, hoping that many tourists will come to explore and immerse themselves in this beautiful and romantic scenery.
