Jiaobanshan Park
Jiaobanshan is a major starting point on the Northern Cross-Island Freeway. The beautiful scenery of Dahan Creek and Shimen Dam attracts the attention of tourists. Dozens of old maple trees in the park turn into beautiful maple red in the autumn. There are also tall old pine trees. The eerily beautiful scenery is a draw for photographers. The two giant banyan trees in the park planted by Jiang Jie-shi and by Madame Jiang are a must-visit for tourists. There are stone steps below the park that lead to the shore of Dahan Creek. One can go to the Xikou Terrace on the opposite side via the suspension bridge.
With a view to increasing the artistic atmosphere of Jiaobanshan and bringing international art to Taiwan , the Taoyuan County Government invited 12 artists from Taiwan and from the United States and Europe to embark on an outdoor sculpture park.. This is the first world-class sculpture park in Taiwan. The works are innovative and are incorporated into the local scenery.Twelve major artists from around the world were invited to use their “language without sound” to create a fusion of art and space, singing the praise of nature at Jiaobanshan International Sculpture Park. Forming a dialogue with people was also one of the goals behind the establishment of Jiaobanshan International Sculpture Park.
"Embracing Couple" Banyan Trees
Mr. and Mrs. Jiang Jie-shi respectively planted one banyan tree in October of 1950 in front of “Taizilou”(literally the prince’s building). After being taken care very well by China Youth Group people over decades, the branches of trees hold each other after many years, like one couple affectionately holding each other; therefore it’s called “Embracing Couple” banyan trees”. |
