Liberty Square

Liberty Square, Public square in Zhongzheng District, Taipei, Taiwan

Liberty Square is a public plaza in the Zhongzheng District of Taipei, Taiwan, covering over 240,000 square metres. It is bordered by the National Concert Hall to the north and the National Theater to the south, with the National Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall at its east end.

The square opened in the late 1970s as Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Square, designed by architect Yang Cho-cheng as part of a memorial to the former president. In 2007 it was renamed Liberty Square to honor Taiwan's democratic progress, and the new name was kept even after the memorial hall reverted to its original name.

The name Liberty Square, displayed on the main arch, reflects the site's role in Taiwan's move toward democracy. Today the plaza is a stage for outdoor concerts, lantern festivals, and military honor guard drills, while the surrounding parks host quieter pastimes like Go games and tai chi.

The square is easy to reach on foot from nearby metro stations and has wide, flat paths that suit wheelchairs and strollers. Visitors can enter from several sides, but the main gate on Zhongshan South Road is the most straightforward starting point for a walk through the grounds.

The calligraphy on the main arch follows the style of Wang Xizhi from the East Jin Dynasty, known for its sense of movement and freedom. The characters are arranged from left to right, a modern practice in Taiwan, rather than the traditional right-to-left order.
