Titang Lake, also known as Ditang Lake, is a man-made ecological detention basin located within the Southern Taiwan Science Park in Tainan. It serves as a vital flood mitigation facility while doubling as a landscaped recreational area for park employees and the public. The site features a perimeter walking trail that encircles the water, providing views of the surrounding modern industrial infrastructure and greenery. The lake is designed to integrate water resource management with local biodiversity, attracting various bird species. It functions as a quiet green lung amidst the high-tech semiconductor and optoelectronics factories of the science park.
