Zhanlong Mountain is named after the hill cut through by the Daan Creek. In 1955, archaeologists discovered prehistoric cultural layers here. In recent years, with the construction of the Banqiao-Tucheng Line and Tucheng Hospital, many ancient artifacts have been excavated in the Zhanlong Mountain area, which has subsequently been designated as a municipal archaeological site and has been integrated with park facilities to become the lively Zhanlong Mountain Archaeological Cultural Park. The archaeological site of Zhanlong Mountain from the Neolithic Age is located at the southwestern corner of the Taipei Basin, situated on a high ground at the intersection of rivers and hills, with a history of 2800 to 2300 years. It belongs to the Yuanshan culture type of the Neolithic period. The artifacts from Zhanlong Mountain mainly consist of polished stone tools and decorated pottery, preserved on-site within the park. Using the decorative patterns on the pottery as design elements, several interpretive panels have been erected in the open areas of the park to guide visitors through thousands of years of history. Perfect for family outings, the Zhanlong Mountain Archaeological Cultural Park features a simulated archaeological excavation sandbox area, containing replicas of prehistoric pottery shards and stone tools waiting to be discovered. A washing area has also been thoughtfully set up for safe play. The hill slide area includes several smooth pebble slides along with climbing ropes and rock climbing walls, which are a favorite among children.
