The park is situated within the Taomi Eco-Village, which was rebuilt as an ecotourism hub following the 1999 Jiji earthquake.
The pools are fed by natural mountain spring water, which remains cool throughout the summer months.
It is a primary site for viewing the Chirping Frog (Microhyla fissipes), one of the many amphibian species found in the local ecosystem.
The park infrastructure uses natural stone materials to minimize environmental impact on the stream bed.
Taomi Riverside Park is a community-managed recreational area in Puli Township characterized by its shallow, natural stream water pools designed for wading. The park utilizes the clean water sourced from the surrounding mountains to provide a safe environment for families and young children. It features stone-lined riverbanks and small water slides integrated directly into the stream flow. The site is a core component of the Taomi Eco-Village initiative, which focuses on community-led environmental conservation. Visitors can observe local frog species and aquatic wildlife in the adjacent restored wetland habitats. The area is maintained by the local residents to promote ecological awareness and sustainable tourism. The park maintains a natural, rustic aesthetic rather than a conventional commercial water park design.
