Shanzijiao Park Introduction
The Shanjia area was originally named "Shanzijiao," which dates back to the Qing Dynasty when it belonged to the Haishan Fort, Shanzijiao Village. The name "Shanzijiao" comes from its proximity to the foothills of Guilun Mountain. During the Japanese occupation, "Shanzijiao" was changed to "Shanzijiao," and after the restoration, it was renamed "Shanjia." Shanzijiao Park is located next to the Shulin District Land Office, along the Lu jiao Creek, covering an area of approximately 2,600 square meters. A wooden boardwalk is built along the creek bank, allowing people to appreciate the small fish in the water. In the evening, visitors can sit by the creek to enjoy the sunset views, making it a great place for leisure activities in the Shanjia area. In recent years, the population of Shulin Shanjia has increased, and to meet residents' demand for leisure space, the government has planned to develop public idle land along the Lu jiao Creek into a linear Shanzijiao Park, with nearly 200 meters of wooden boardwalk connecting the historic Shanjia Train Station and the culturally rich Hakka Cultural Center at both ends, making it a suitable place to visit on weekends.
