Yanping Riverside Park — Attraction in Taipei

Yanping Riverside Park has preserved memories of the early lives of the people in Taipei. Heading towards the direction of the Tamsui River estuary, visitors can enjoy cultural heritage attractions of the entire Dadaocheng Area along the way, such as: Dihua Street, Xiahai City God Temple, Taipei Confucius Temple and Dalongdong Bao’an Temple. These places help people bring back memories of old Taipei. At the starting point of Dadaocheng Wharf, many recreation facilities are also available, including: Blue Highway ferry piers, coffee square and Tangshan Sailboat (Junk). During holidays, visitors can rent bicycles to enjoy the wind and the scenery. Furthermore, they can also enjoy coffee at the open-air café, and may occasionally encounter a performance of traditional Taiwanese opera. It is a place for leisure where modernity and traditions merge to form the unique riverside style that defines Taipei’s cityscape....
