GREAT LOVE PARK Introduction
After the Morakot disaster in 2009, Shanlin became an important base for home reconstruction. The Daya Park includes facilities such as a church, workshops, Hope Square, an indigenous culture park, and Daya Elementary School. However, the most valuable aspect is that the residents, based on their respective ethnic legends, totems, and preferences for colors and shapes, have created a unique "language of homes" in Daya Park. The homes of the Bunun people feature brightly colored diamonds and totems of the sun and moon, while those of the Rukai and Paiwan peoples are decorated with symbols of the bamboo viper and lily flowers. These totems represent the legends and memories of their entire ethnic groups. If one sees spring couplets, it indicates a Han Chinese household. The "Xiaolin Park" from Xiaolin Village is connected by the Lion Bridge, donated by the Lions Club, with several clumps of bamboo becoming an important memory of the original hometown of Xiaolin.
