The park is situated within the Erchong Floodway, a critical water management infrastructure project for the Taipei metropolitan area.
The name 'Xingfu' translates to 'Happiness' in Mandarin, inspired by the park's focus on creating family-friendly and romantic public spaces.
The site hosts large-scale seasonal flower carpet events, often timed to coincide with major holidays like Valentine's Day or the Spring Festival.
It is part of a larger chain of riverside parks connected by the Sanchong cycling path network, covering over 7 kilometers in total length.
The landscape design uses the natural terrain of the floodway to minimize the impact of water accumulation during the typhoon season.
Xingfu Shuiyang Park is a large-scale riverside recreational area spanning 24 hectares along the Erchong Floodway. The park serves as a major urban flood detention basin that functions as a public leisure space when not managing water levels. Its design centers on the 'happiness' theme, featuring large-scale love-themed art installations and romantic landscaping elements. The site includes extensive paved paths for cycling and jogging that connect to a wider regional riverside trail network. Amenities include a variety of children’s play areas, specialized picnic lawns, and large floral displays that rotate by season. The park is integrated into the New Taipei City riverside green corridor system. It is managed by the High Riverbank Construction Management Office of the New Taipei City Government.
