Zhanlong Mountain gets its name from the hill cut through by the Daan River. In 1955, archaeologists discovered layers of prehistoric culture here. In recent years, many ancient artifacts have been excavated in the Zhanlong Mountain area due to the construction of the Bannan Line of the Taipei Metro and Tucheng Hospital. It was subsequently designated as a city archaeological site and integrated with park facilities, becoming a vibrant cultural park of the Zhanlong Mountain Ruins. The Zhanlong Mountain Ruins, an archaeological site from the Neolithic period, is located at the southwestern corner of the Taipei Basin, at a highland where rivers and hills meet, with a history of 2,800 to 2,300 years ago. It belongs to the Yuanshan culture of the Neolithic period. The artifacts from the Zhanlong Mountain Ruins primarily consist of polished stone tools and decorated pottery, preserved on-site within the park. Several interpretation boards, featuring design elements based on patterns from the pottery, have been erected in the park's open areas to guide visitors through thousands of years of history. The Zhanlong Mountain Ruins Cultural Park has planned a simulated archaeological dig in the sandpit area, where replicas of prehistoric pottery shards and stone tools await discovery, and a washing area has been thoughtfully set up for safe play. The hill slide area features multiple smooth pebble slides, climbing ropes, and climbing rocks, making it a favorite among children.
