Fuyang Ecological Park

It was a Sunday that I did not need to go to the cram school. The weather was so nice so I decided to go out for nature. I took the metro brown line and got off at Linguang Station, situated in a quiet neighborhood without too many tourist attractions, but possessing two very pleasant parks for the locals and nature goers.

My destination was Fuyang Ecology Park, which is 5-10 minutes away from the metro station on foot. Unfortuantely, Fuyang Ecology Park is still under renovation, and its entrance is totally blocked by the metal construction wall. There seemed to be other visitors with a net at hand coming on their scooters disappointed after seeing the announce on the panel. 


The map at the entrance of the park, with the announce on top of it indicating its temporary closure till Feb 1.


Fuyang park was actually a ammunition depot during the Japanese colonization and then military base, so it preserves the nature in a way.


I continued walking to  the top of the Fuzhoushan park beside, where we can have a nice view overlooking Taipei basin, and of course Taipei 101.
