Dongshan River Water Park Introduction
The Dongshan River Water Park, which integrates water and greenery, is located along the banks of the Dongshan River. At a glance, you can see the bright red arc of the Lizhengjian Bridge. This picturesque scene of blue sky, green land, and a red bridge spanning the shimmering river is the impression many people have of the Dongshan River Water Park, attracting many families to relax and have fun! Here, the concept of "getting close to water and nature" is evident everywhere. The interface between land and river is mostly designed as stepped platforms that gradually sink into the water, or the land extends with slopes into the water. From the theater's central stage looking out to sea, you can see a water stage and five conical pebble hills lined up in a row, directly facing the neck of Guishan Island, unintentionally introducing the natural landmark of Lanyang into the park. The Dongshan River has a legend of the Blue Dragon and Yellow Dragon protecting its banks, so the riverside is constructed with pebbles into undulating, curved dragon slopes, inlaid with blue, green, yellow, and orange tiles. On the steps of the dragon slope, fun mosaic pieces created by local children can be seen. The park is well-planned and divided into three main areas, allowing everyone to enjoy "water-friendly" activities. The rowing area can be used for practicing dragon boating and western-style rowing, or you can enjoy the romantic scenery of the water and sky reflected together while riding a small boat. The wading area has varying depths, covering only the ankles, where you can see many adults holding children's hands as they wade to cool off. The large white stone and crescent-shaped stone wall in the pool have symbolic meanings; the stone wall represents a bamboo fence for duck farming, while the large white stone symbolizes ducks swimming in the water, reflecting the traditional life of duck farmers in Yilan. There is also a water play area that children love, divided into a swimming pool, an exercise pool, and a river journey. In summer, you can come prepared in your swimsuit to have a great time! Additionally, the swimming pool is designed to mimic the winding shape of the Lanyang River, making every corner of the Dongshan River Water Park full of surprises. When visiting the Dongshan River Water Park, you might consider cycling along the river to take in the scenic views of the Dongshan River, or enthusiastically playing in the water under the sky, or strolling along the riverbanks to relax and escape the hustle and bustle. You may also want to attend the annual Dragon Boat Festival competition and the International Children's Play Festival. No matter how you choose to play, the Dongshan River Water Park will definitely leave you satisfied!
