Trash Mountain Transformed into a World-Class Attraction: Bakai Park Showcases Taiwan to the World

Last updated 2026-09-24 — This park can truly be called a “world-class attraction.” In 2016, it was awarded the top prize in the environmental category by FIABCI, the world’s most authoritative real estate alliance, winning the “Global Excellence in Construction Award” for first place; in 2017, it also claimed the highest honor, the “Comprehensive Excellence Achievement Award,” at the National Excellence in Construction Awards. This remarkable achievement, however, has its roots in what locals used to call the “trash park.”

“How is that possible?” foreigners said in disbelief, their faces full of astonishment. The predecessor of “Bakai Memorial Park” was a garbage mountain. Last year, this park tucked away in Tainan City won the internationally renowned “Global Excellence in Construction Award” for first place—a world-class attraction that showcases Taiwan to the world.

Weeping willows, water channels, and green spaces—there are plenty of tranquil corners throughout the park.
