About Taichung Park
Taichung Park is one of the oldest and most iconic parks in Taichung City, Taiwan. Established in 1903 during the Japanese colonial period, it spans over 10 hectares and offers a peaceful escape in the heart of the city. The park features a beautiful lake with a charming pavilion known as the Lake Heart Pavilion, which has become a symbol of Taichung.
Visitors can enjoy scenic walking paths, traditional bridges, lush greenery, and a variety of recreational facilities. Taichung Park is not only a popular spot for locals to relax and exercise, but it’s also a cultural landmark, often hosting events and celebrations, especially during holidays like Lantern Festival.
Best Things to Do in
Visit the Lake Heart Pavilion
This classic wooden pavilion in the middle of the lake is the star of the park. Built during the Japanese colonial period, it’s not only beautiful but also a slice of history. Snap some pics — especially at sunset!
Enjoy a Leisurely Walk or Jog
The park has well-maintained paths lined with trees, making it perfect for a peaceful stroll or a morning jog. Locals often come here for tai chi or light workouts.
Pack a Picnic or Grab a Snack
You’ll find street vendors or local snacks nearby, or bring your own lunch and enjoy a laid-back picnic under the shade of the trees.
Sometimes the best thing to do is nothing at all. Find a bench, watch the world go by, and soak up the local atmosphere.
