Taipei Water Park Introduction
The Taipei Water Park is located in the southern part of the Taipei Basin, at the hub of the Gonguan shopping district, covering an area of approximately 20 hectares. The natural environment is nestled by mountains and water and serves as the source of Taipei's water supply. The park features water-themed gardens and fountain gardens that provide a fun place for both children and adults to enjoy water activities. It is also an environmental education facility with a theme focused on "water resources conservation." In addition to the operational Gonguan Water Purification Plant, it includes historic water facilities built during the Japanese colonial period, such as the highest water supply facility in Taiwan, the Taipei Waterway Pump Room (Water Museum), Guanyin Mountain Reservoir, measuring station, and the post-war mixed water pumping station. The park's environmental education center has carefully developed water resource teaching plans suitable for various age groups. Additionally, the park includes approximately 5 hectares of Little Guanyin Mountain, which preserves a native broadleaf forest ecosystem found in lower elevation regions, allowing for ecological exploration courses. Coupled with nearby Treasure Hill International Art Village, Hakka Cultural Theme Park, and riverside bike paths, it offers a variety of different options.
