Lover's Lake Park Introduction
Lover's Lake Park is located on the hillside of Dawulun Mountain and is formed by the convergence of six mountain streams. It is the only highland lake in Keelung, with a delicate and beautiful lake surface that embodies the charm of a serene and elegant setting. The area is densely forested, with emerald green lake water, picturesque mountain scenery, and refreshing landscapes. During spring and summer, the sounds of insects and birds fill the air, and butterflies dance around, making it a perfect place for people to embrace nature. Lover's Lake was originally named "Wuchabei," but it was later renamed Lover's Lake due to the frequent activities held by the Keelung Youth Corps. The park features facilities such as a lakeside trail, mountain trail, Lover's Bridge, pavilions, and observation platforms, with lush greenery along both sides of the trail and a variety of plants showcasing the beauty of all four seasons. Strolling through the park, visitors can enjoy the forest bathing experience while appreciating the scenic views of the lake and mountains, creating a poetic and picturesque atmosphere. The mountain trail at Lover's Lake Park leads to the seaside mountain peak, Eagle Rock, where visitors can view the ocean from the ridgeline. This offers sights of the nearby Dawulun Fishing Port and a distant view of Keelung Islet and the Yehliu Cape, instantly lifting one's spirits. Another explanation for the name Lover's Lake is that there are two interconnected lakes in the park, one large and one small, resembling lovers entwined and keeping each other company, hence the name.
