Liugongjun Pool, National Taiwan University, Swimming pool at National Taiwan University, Taiwan.
Liugongjun Pool is an outdoor swimming facility on the campus of National Taiwan University in Taipei, with eight lanes and sections of varying water depth. The layout allows different groups to use the pool at the same time, from lap swimmers to class participants.
National Taiwan University was founded in 1928 during the Japanese colonial period, making it one of the oldest universities on the island. The pool was built as part of a later expansion of the campus sports facilities.
The pool is a regular part of physical education at the university, where students attend classes and swim teams train side by side. Watching a session gives visitors a sense of how sport fits into daily campus life.
The pool is generally open during the academic term, with different hours on weekdays and weekends, so checking ahead is a good idea. The campus is large and signage is available, but arriving with a map helps you find the facility without difficulty.
The water is kept at a constant temperature between 27 and 29 degrees Celsius (80 to 84 degrees Fahrenheit) throughout the year. This means that even during Taipei's cooler winter months, the pool remains comfortable for regular use.
