Gangshan Park Introduction
Located in the Gangshan commercial area, Gangshan Park covers an area of 5.95 hectares and is the oldest park in Gangshan District. It was originally the site of the Gangshan Shrine and is adjacent to the bustling Shoutian Temple, which has long been an important recreational spot for the public. In 2013, the city government began a renovation of the park, preserving old trees, removing outdated facilities, and refurbishing the shrine's torii gate. They also implemented a grass area with a drainage soft pipe to store and collect 1,200 tons of rainwater, along with an ecological pond that can hold about 1,600 tons of water to nurture groundwater, allowing the park to return to its natural greenery. The newly established walking paths are friendly and allow visitors to listen to birdsong and enjoy the refreshing greenery. The renovated library brings forth the sounds of reading and cultural activities. The transformed park is not only more spacious and bright but also integrates ecological, environmental, and stormwater management functions, making it a refreshing oasis in the bustling urban area of Gangshan and a beautiful gathering place that combines recreation and culture.
