The layout divides the area into four distinct zones representing the primary landscape elements: water, mountain, forest, and turf. It features a large artificial lake that acts as the central landscape feature, providing a habitat for diverse migratory birds. Athletic amenities include an Olympic-sized swimming pool, tennis courts, basketball courts, and a professional baseball stadium. The park contains an extensive network of walking paths and cycling trails that traverse varied topography. It serves as a major community recreational hub for the Yilan plain area. The design philosophy emphasizes the harmony between built sporting infrastructure and Yilan’s local ecology.

Insider tips

Bring a bicycle to navigate the extensive paved perimeter trails efficiently.

Sun protection is essential as many areas, particularly the turf zones and sports courts, have limited overhead cover.

Check the local Yilan sports bureau website before visiting if you plan to use indoor swimming or court facilities, as they occasionally host regional tournaments.

What to avoid

Avoid visiting during the peak heat of summer afternoons without adequate hydration and sun protection, as the park features large open fields with minimal shade.

Good to know

Indoor athletic facilities may close occasionally for scheduled regional sports events or maintenance.

Etiquette

Athletic footwear is required for designated courts; general park areas require standard modest casual wear.
