The latest information is based on announcements from the New Taipei City Government Cultural Affairs Bureau. Click here to proceed. Zhanlong Mountain got its name from the hill cut through by the Da'an River. In 1955, archaeologists discovered prehistoric cultural layers here. In recent years, with the construction of the Ban-Nan Line of the metro and Tucheng Hospital, many ancient artifacts have been excavated in the Zhanlong Mountain area, which was subsequently designated as a municipal archaeological site and integrated with park facilities to become a vibrant Zhanlong Mountain Site Cultural Park. The archaeological site of Zhanlong Mountain, dating back 2,800 to 2,300 years, is located in the southwestern corner of the Taipei Basin, at the junction of rivers and hills. It belongs to the Yuanshan Culture type of the Neolithic era. Artifacts from the Zhanlong Mountain site primarily include polished stone tools and decorated pottery, which have been preserved in situ within the park. Based on the patterns on the pottery, several interpretive panels have been erected in the park's open area to guide visitors through thousands of years of history. For family fun, the Zhanlong Mountain Site Cultural Park has planned a simulated archaeological dig sandbox area, containing replicas of prehistoric pottery shards and stone tools for children to discover, along with a washing area for safe play. The hill slide area features several smooth pebble slides, climbing ropes, and climbing rocks, which are favorites among children.
