Taipei Water Park, Water heritage museum in Zhongzheng District, Taiwan
The Museum of Drinking Water is a former water treatment facility that spans multiple buildings with extensive displays. The collection documents historical equipment and modern purification systems that explain the entire water processing process.
The facility was built in 1908 during Japanese colonial rule and transformed into an educational museum in 1993. It gained historic site status, preserving an important chapter of Taiwan's infrastructure history.
The grounds display traditional water management tools and documents that show Taiwan's long relationship with water resources. Visitors can observe how people in earlier times collected and used water.
The site is within walking distance of Gongguan Station on the Taipei Metro and offers guided tours in multiple languages. The best approach is to spend time in the different exhibition halls and choose which areas to visit based on your interests.
The grounds preserve red brick colonial architecture with gardens and water elements that maintain the original appearance of the facility. This blend of preserved buildings and modern exhibits makes the place a rare example of a repurposed industrial site in Taiwan.
