A Peaceful Park on YangMingShan Mountain
On the way to YangMingShan mountain, consider stopping at QianShan park, which is just off the YangMingShan mountain road. It’s a very shady park with pretty winding paths that kids can explore. This mountain park seems very quiet compared to most city parks. The park also includes hot springs, foot hot springs, a swimming pool, and a couple of ponds with ducks. There’s also a play structure at a small playground in the park, and nearby is a basketball court and roller skating area. It’s a very serene park, with lots of benches and tables for picnics. Near the park is a street with food stalls, and there’s restaurants (including Starbucks) and a 7-11 close by for those in need of coffee.
