A City Oasis Gently Embraced by Time - Beitou Park

When people think of Beitou, the image of a misty hot spring town often comes to mind. However, just a five-minute walk from Beitou MRT Station reveals a city oasis gently embraced by time—Beitou Park. This century-old park, established during the Japanese colonial period, is one of Taiwan's rare public spaces with a strong Japanese aesthetic. Its arched stone bridges, gently flowing streams, and quietly standing stone lanterns harmonize with nearby Japanese-style buildings like the Hot Spring Museum and library, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of a corner in Kyoto.
