Kaohsiung Sanmin District - Jianmin Park (a great place to take your kids out for a sunbathing day)

Many people visit Jianmin Park during the day and at night, mainly because of the convenient transportation and surrounding environment, which are particularly refreshing. Bicycles can be rented here, and the 50 Building and the Science and Technology Museum are easily accessible nearby. There are rare alley-side delicacies all around the park, leisurely brunch shops on holidays, afternoon tea cafes, and the famous 6-yuan mochi. From desserts and snacks to delicious meals, everything can be satisfied here. So it is common for parents to bring their children here, and after having a big meal, they go to the park to let off some steam. In addition to slides and swings, there is also a small climbing area for children inside the park, as well as a rehabilitation equipment area for adults. Although it is a bit old, it is well maintained. There are big trees here, very tall ones, so they basically block the sunlight and it is very cool. The transportation here is convenient. You can drive or motorcycle to get there. In addition to roadside parking, there is also a public parking lot nearby. In fact, I personally think the facilities are just okay, only a little richer than the small park. I think the advantage of recommending it is that there are so many delicious foods in the surrounding environment, and the plants here are well maintained. You can enjoy the feeling of phytoncides in the city at the same time. It is also because nature is well maintained, so there are many birds here. You can often see a whole group of pigeons, and squirrels running around in groups. From time to time, you can go exploring in the flowers, and you may find all kinds of cute little insects and beautiful butterflies. The sounds of insects and birds are constantly changing here. These are natural scenery that artificial parks cannot achieve, and can be seen in the city. Almost all the plants here are introduced. Even if they are newly planted, their names will be handwritten before the introduction board comes out, so that children can get close to nature and recognize new plants. Buy a cup of coffee and sit in the park. The shade of the trees here is a natural air-conditioning room. Although it is noon, you can see many people sitting under the trees chatting. You feel separated from the scorching sun, but even with the faint sunlight coming in through the leaves, it is not stuffy at all. There are always some activities here during festivals, which may be challenges for children organized by the village head, or small markets. The most important thing is that it is completely free. (I heard that the head of the village here likes to organize activities, so he often organizes a lot of activities for us to play) Children don’t have to worry about being exposed to the sun when they come here. After playing all the amusement facilities, they can go on a forest adventure and experience the "pigeon chasing" that is longed for when traveling abroad. It is fun to experience the fun of walking a few steps and a whole flock of pigeons flying up. The ground is flat and there are no stairs, so wheelchairs can pass freely. There is a circle of sidewalks outside, and many people walk their dogs and jog there in the evening. It can be said to be a place suitable for all ages. It is worth mentioning that there are 3 Pokémon gyms here, so every time there is an event, the park will be full, but it will soon be gone. If you are a game player, you can also come and visit this resort. Each food in the surrounding area has its own characteristics, but basically they are all good and the prices are affordable (brunch is a bit more expensive). I especially recommend Erjie Noodles opposite the park. The mahjong noodles are extremely delicious. The convenience stores next to the park are like a tripartite alliance. They have all the convenience stores you can think of, including 7-11, FamilyMart, Hi-Life, and OK. My favorite is Mart, which has different special offers every day. You can pick your favorite drinks and go out to enjoy some air conditioning when you are tired of playing. There is a Youyou Pot Pasta not far ahead, and 6 Yuan Mochi is next door. Both are recommended by locals. The rest depends on your personal preference. In addition to Taiwanese food, there are Vietnamese snacks and Thai food restaurants about ten minutes' walk behind the park. Whenever you don't know what to eat, come and stroll around the park, which will definitely be very beneficial.
