The playground in Ronghua Park is lush with greenery.
Rongfu Park in Beitou offers a diverse and endlessly challenging space, featuring play facilities such as an astronaut training device, wooden tunnels, and trampolines. The astronaut training device, in particular, provides a thrilling experience of space flight, combining sliding, climbing, and 360-degree spinning elements. The uniquely shaped wooden structures include rope-climbing, crawling, and hiding spots in the wooden tunnel, while the most popular trampoline is a hit with kids, making everyone reluctant to leave.

The spacious and even grounds of Rongfu Park.
Ronghua Park’s newly added dual-track slide includes one side with a standing or sitting zip line and the other with a safe seat-style slide, allowing kids to enjoy the thrill of sliding whether standing or sitting. Additionally, since Ronghua Park is near the Donghua Pumping Station, the new play wall incorporates water-themed designs, integrating water droplets into the structure to help children learn about the local landscape and culture while playing.
