Taihu Recreation Area Introduction

The Taihu Recreation Area includes Taihu, the Chiayi Memorial Forest, the Yong Garden, the Yu Dawei Memorial Hall, and the 823 War History Museum, covering an area of approximately 45 hectares. Originally named the "Huanglong Reservoir," Taihu is the largest artificial freshwater lake in Kinmen, providing domestic water supply and irrigation for farmers in the Jincheng area. The expansive lake surface is majestic, and the ripples that arise with the wind always attract the attention of passersby. There are three islands within the lake that are home to many bird species, and the area is also frequented by adorable otters. In the early morning, Taihu is dreamlike and enchanting in the mist, with dense flower trees planted along the lakeside. Walking along the lakeside trail, one can fully enjoy the surrounding beautiful scenery of lakes and mountains, or find leisure in a pavilion to chat and relax, making for a wonderfully pleasant experience. Planning a half-day visit to the nearby Yong Garden and the 823 War History Museum is also a great arrangement! The Zhongzheng Park encompasses the entire Taihu and Yong Garden areas, featuring shaded pine forests, stunning lake views, lush green grass, and facilities such as lakeside walking paths, a children's sports park, stone sculptures, and small bridges, making it an ideal spot for families to relax and appreciate the natural beauty around them.
