New Taipei City Military Martyrs' Shrine (Weapons Park) Introduction
The New Taipei City Martyrs' Shrine, originally known as the New Taipei City Military Cemetery, is located on the south side of Datong Mountain in the Shulin District of New Taipei City, covering an area of 5.6 hectares. The memorial hall was completed in July 1959, serving as a place for honoring the deceased soldiers and veterans. The original military cemetery, which had been in use for over twenty years, featured simple early buildings, and various facilities deteriorated over time. The crematorium and columbarium also became inadequate. In 1982, it was rebuilt on the original site and was completed and opened in March 1984. In June 1996, it was officially renamed "New Taipei City Martyrs' Shrine," a title that remained after the county and city reorganization.
