Singuang Riverside Park, also known as the Water Starlight Playground, is a waterfront recreational area located along the Kaohsiung harbor basin. The park features an integrated splash pad area designed for children, featuring ground-level water jets and shallow basins. It is built upon a former port industrial site, reflecting the city’s transition from a heavy shipping hub to a public-facing cultural district. The design incorporates expansive boardwalks that provide direct access to the edge of the harbor. Its layout emphasizes flat, accessible surfaces that integrate with the surrounding urban landscape of the Cianjhen District. The park serves as a key node in the larger continuous greenway extending along the Kaohsiung waterfront.
