Discover this 4.0-km loop trail near Daan, Taipei City. Generally considered an easy route, it takes an average of 47 min to complete. This is a very popular area for hiking, running, and walking, so you'll likely encounter other people while exploring. The trail is open year-round and is beautiful to visit anytime. Situated in the urban center, Da'an Forest Park officially opened in 1994, bordering Jianguo South Rd. in the east, Xinsheng South Road in the west, Heping East Road in the south, and Xinyi Road in the north. Covered in grasslands, trees, flowers and foliage plants, there is a Buddha Statue and a bamboo forest in the south, an open-air theatre for art performances in the center, and an accessible recreational area surrounding it attracts many park visitors. Known as the "lungs of Taipei City," the park is a green world unto itself. Besides shaded trails for pedestrians and joggers, the park is equipped with a wide range of recreational facilities, including a public square, public bicycles, open-air music stage, children playground, kiosks etc., providing Taipei's citizens with a valuable green space and the best venue for exercise and recreations. Forest is the homeland of water sources. In addition to providing various recreational functions to the public, the park is a place where priceless water resources are nourished. Therefore, the Water Resources Agency, Ministry of Economic Affairs, hopes to educate citizens, by means of formative influences, to cherish the limited water resources; the means include water saving apparatus installed inside the park, the public toilet demo system, and the water purification plant experiment; and to make the park the best showcase of water preservation.

As a family of three with a toddler, we found the Dandy Hotel Daan Branch to be exceptionally accommodating. The hotel provides all the essential amenities needed for a family stay. Our room was cozy yet spacious, featuring a large bathroom, a modern TV, a refrigerator, and a closet ample enough to store our clothes for our five-day visit. One of the highlights was the complimentary breakfast, which was thoughtfully prepared and balanced. It included a variety of dishes, salads, soups, an assortment of pastries, and a self-service coffee corner. The hotel also has a play area for children, which our toddler absolutely loved. Additionally, the availability of a laundry and dryer area was a great convenience, allowing us to wash our clothes before packing for our departure. The hotel's location is ideal, situated right across from a wide and clean public park. We thoroughly enjoyed our morning walks and basking in the morning sun. The proximity to the MRT Daan Park red line station, just across the street, made transportation very convenient. There are several stores and eateries nearby: a 7-Eleven right below the hotel, a Subway snack bar and a pharmacy across the street, Dream Restaurant just a couple of buildings away, an authentic coffee shop, and a breakfast carinderia in front of the hotel that serves the best sandwiches in the district. Our stay at Dandy Hotel Daan Branch was wonderful, and we will definitely consider staying here again. We highly recommend this hotel to our family, friends, and various Facebook groups and chats. We are so happy with our experience! 🫰🏼🤗🇹🇼

Indeed a very sprawling forest park with multiple toilets across the entire park. There are spaces catering to all age groups, with well paved paths and boardwalks for a leisurely stroll, a dedicated jogging track and plenty of spaces where the residents engage in all types of activities. There were many trees and is very shady if you do not like to be out in the sun. I was very impressed by the offerings of this park. I see groups of people, some doing the fan dance, others Taiji, a small band made up of older folks warming up with their musical instruments, younger folks playing basketball at the courts, kids at the playground, preschool students going on a walk with their teachers etc The park was so huge that it could accommodate everyone with their different activities and yet have large spaces with nobody around. You can bring your mat, food and stuff and just have a picnic, let your kids play on the open field while you read a book etc A lovely place to exercise, to spend with your kids or just on your own for some quiet time. You can always find a quiet corner in this sprawling compound. Readily accessible by train (Daan Park Station) and alight right at the park.

Daan Amphitheatre Amphitheatre conventionally served military training or entertainment functions, staging public venationes (animal hunts), executions, gladiator combats, and forums. One of the largest amphitheatres in Roman-Britain was built in first century (c. 70-100 CE), an auxiliary Deva Victrix legionary construction. Situated by north entrance of Chester Roman Amphitheatre was a place of worship dedicated to Goddess Nemesis (arch-enemy or the avenged). Daan Underground Station and Underground Parking Facilities Built by Legio II Adiutrix, Deva Victrix (Chester) encapsulates divine victory, star victory, or King David's victory. Interpreted as Dewi in Welsh, the name Dewa (Fortress) coincided with Welsh Saint David (Sant Dewi in Welsh) meaning David. In Hebrew, David is Duwad and can be associated with the Egyptian Duat, or underworld, or Avalon, which signifies underworld in Celtic. In Celtic, Carron stems from Caers which is derived from the Latin term castra indicating fortification. City of Chester encapsulates city of fortress in Latin (castle of legions).

Daan Forest Park was the main reason why we chose our hotel in this area of Taipei. I wanted to visit the park every morning to do bird photography before we go to our destinations everyday. The park is a haven for the elderly and for the fitness buffs. It's so inspiring to see people, mostly seniors, gathering in many diverse groups, doing their fitness exercises or activities of choice. It's also nice to see and eventually meet fellow bird enthusiasts who are either bird photographers or just plain birdwatchers. The place is ideal for city birding as it has a wide expanse of greens with some portions having thick vegetation, good enough for several bird species to thrive. Many egrets and herons are nesting on the trees by the pond. Barbets are also building nests on tree trunks. Good park facilities like stationery bikes in the garden, an ampitheatre, basketball courts, skating rinks, and a lot of benches, seating areas, and sheds. Clean and well-maintained restrooms.
