Beinan Cultural Park Introduction
Beinan Cultural Park simultaneously showcases and explores the Beinan Ruins, a park that encompasses prehistoric culture, indigenous culture, and natural landscapes. The park features an open environment and a museum, continuing archaeological work while also focusing on display and preservation, which is the unique characteristic of Beinan Cultural Park. Visitors can learn about the Beinan Ruins and its culture in the exhibition hall; they can visit the archaeological site and the lunar-shaped stone columns to see ruins from thousands of years ago; and they can enjoy the park's surroundings from the observation decks on both sides, where, if fortunate, they might witness ongoing archaeological excavations. The outdoor environment recreates a 1:1 scale model of prehistoric houses, as well as meeting houses and residential buildings of the Beinan people. The ruins park also serves as an open green space, making it a great spot for tourists' recreation and leisure. The Beinan Ruins are the largest and most complete prehistoric settlement site in Taiwan, and they are also the largest slate coffin burial site in the Pacific Rim and Southeast Asia. The park features spacious lawns, exhibition halls, and performance squares, along with natural plant forests and tour routes for visiting archaeological sites. Upon reaching the observation deck, one can enjoy a panoramic view of the Beinan River, the Liji Badlands, and Taitung City. Strolling across the wide lawn allows visitors to reconnect with the past from thousands of years ago, witnessing the history and ancient stories behind it, making it a great destination for an intellectually and emotionally enriching journey.
