Located near the Taoyuan High-Speed Rail Station, Qingtang Park is an urban recreational space and was one of the exhibition areas of the 2018 Taoyuan Land Art Festival, "Water Young Qingtang Park." The site features a total of nine installation artworks, among which a piece designed to resemble an airplane, titled "Taoyuan Airport No. 1," allows visitors to walk inside the artwork, creating the illusion of stepping into a time tunnel.
