Zhongshan Station District - Xinzongshan Line Shaped Park Introduction
Located in the core area of Zhongshan District, Taipei City, the Heart of Zhongshan Linear Park connects the Zhongshan Metro Station to the Shuanglian Station, creating a green corridor that links urban life with greenery. The pathway includes above-ground landscaped walkways and integrates underground public spaces and commercial streets, forming an urban recreational area that combines leisure, arts and culture, commerce, and community life. The park design incorporates modern architectural aesthetics, with clear pathways and greenery, lawns, and seating distributed along both sides, providing suitable areas for short stays and observing neighborhood activities. Multiple observation platforms within the park offer high views of pedestrian flow and street scenery, while quieter corners allow for resting, making the walking experience more comfortable. The Heart of Zhongshan Linear Park serves not only as an urban greenbelt but also connects the Zhongshan Underground Shopping Mall, B1 sunken plaza, and underground jazz plaza, forming an integrated public space system above and below ground. The park and its surroundings frequently host markets, cultural performances, street performances, and family activities, making it a shared living space for both travelers and local residents. The surrounding alleys are home to numerous creative studios, unique coffee shops, and design boutiques, creating a distinctive street style that is especially popular among the younger crowd. Among them, Chifeng Street stands out as a representative location, becoming a well-known shopping and cultural exploration spot in Taipei in recent years, attracting travelers who enjoy urban life and exploring commercial districts. The Heart of Zhongshan Linear Park is not only a newly established greenbelt in the city but also a city node that integrates life, aesthetics, culture, and convenience. It showcases how Taipei manages to maintain public spaces that accommodate leisure, commerce, and culture within a high-density urban setting.
