Beitou Park, located in Taipei City's Beitou District, is an open-air hot spring park that blends natural scenery with cultural history. Situated between Zhongshan Road and Guangming Road, it is close to the popular tourist attraction Thermal Valley. The park was established during the Japanese colonial period, becoming Taipei’s third park after Yuanshan Park and the former Taipei New Park (now 228 Peace Memorial Park), and is also Taiwan’s first hot spring park, covering an area of approximately 3.98 hectares.

The development of Beitou Park was closely tied to the construction of the Xinbeitou Railway, which was built to serve visitors heading to the hot spring area. For this reason, it has also been referred to as "Xinbeitou Park." Today’s Beitou Park comprises several designated urban planning parks (Beitou No. 1, 2, 4, 54, and 55), with a total area of 61,129 square meters.

At the park entrance, a jumping fountain facility completed in 2009 puts on daily performances with synchronized music, lighting, and water displays, adding a modern atmosphere. Walking along Guangming Road, visitors will find rare and ancient trees such as Melaleuca and Pterospermum, bearing witness to nearly a century of Beitou Park’s history. Along the way stands the Taipei Public Library Beitou Branch, designed with green architecture concepts focused on energy conservation and carbon reduction, adding a cultural touch to the park.

Another park highlight is the walkway along the Beitou River. This river was once the only known source of the mineral Hokutolite, named after Beitou itself—a rare geological distinction. Although the mineral is no longer visible, it remains a unique geological feature of the area.

On the Zhongshan Road side of the park, visitors can find the Beitou Public Hot Spring Bath, next to which stands "Plum Garden," a historical building now functioning as a visitor center managed by the Taipei City Government’s Department of Information and Tourism. The park is also home to the Beitou Hot Spring Museum, which blends Japanese and Western architectural styles. Its wooden lattice windows and red brick walls reflect the aesthetics of the Japanese colonial era, harmonizing beautifully with the surrounding natural landscape.
