Top Urban Park Choices
No.1 Yilan Riverside Park
Transportation: Walk from Yilan Railway Station to the Kangshan Bus Yilan Station, take bus No. 1766, and get off at Nianfo Hui.
The early scenic beauty “Viewing the West Dyke at Dusk” of Yilan Riverside Park has been selected as one of the “Eighteen Scenic Views of LanYang.”
Taipei’s Da’an Forest Park is conveniently located and is a favorite weekend relaxation spot for many locals. With a rich variety of plants and vast green spaces, it’s perfect for families to have a picnic and admire the moon. The park includes several zones: Bamboo Grove, Banyan Area, Fragrant Flower Area, Aquatic Plants Area, Linear Forest Area, Pool and Rockery Area, Open-Air Music Stage, Children’s Play Area, and parking lots. The Open-Air Music Stage frequently hosts music events and has a natural sloped design, accommodating around 900 spectators. There are 12 pavilions throughout the park, and the surrounding sidewalks feature different trees—Schefflera on Jianguo South Road, Camphor trees on Heping East Road, Melaleuca on Xinyi South Road, Sweetgum on Xinyi Road, with multi-layered hedges separating the walkways inside the park. Nearby, there’s the famous Shida Night Market, which is just a 20-minute walk from Heping East Road, making it very convenient.
Transportation: Take the MRT Brown Line to Da’an Station, then walk west along Xinyi Road to reach Da’an Forest Park.
Da’an Forest Park can be considered Taipei’s backyard garden, just a short walk from Shida Night Market. After moon-gazing, you can head to the night market for a bite.
No.3 Taichung Metropolitan Park
Transportation: Holiday buses (operating on Saturdays and Sundays) run approximately every 20 minutes. Take Taichung Bus No. 22 or RY Bus No. 38.
The Moon Gazing Corridor and Starry Sky Plaza of Taichung Metropolitan Park are poetic and picturesque, giving you the feeling of being surrounded by stars while admiring the moon.
Tranquil Mountain Areas
