Wanan Riverside Park is a community-focused recreational space located in the Wanan Village of Taiwu Township, Pingtung. The park is designed as a riverside water-play area, utilizing local water resources to provide a cooling environment. It features stone-lined channels and shallow pools suitable for wading. The area serves as a communal gathering point for residents and a scenic stop for travelers exploring the Pingtung mountain foothills. Its infrastructure incorporates indigenous cultural elements reflecting the local Paiwan heritage. The park is managed by the local township and functions as both a public leisure zone and a flood-mitigation landscape feature.
