Our Journey:

I have been to Taipei City Hakka Cultural Park once and it is truly one of the most unique parks in Taipei. It is the only place in Taipei City where I have seen a communal gardening center. IF you like gardening and you are interested in Hakka Culture, this is the place for you.

Here there is a shed where people can keep gardening tools. 

There is also a large covered area where people can hold events rain or shine. Inside the building there is also a museum and a library you can check out.

The whole area is wheelchair accessible and connects up with the riverside bike paths. 

Grassy area in front of the garden. 

Shady areas to rest.
