Built by the Japanese as "Taipei Nursery" in 1896, the park was expanded in 1921 to become a botanical garden home to over 2,000 species of plant species.
Occupying 82,000 SQ METRES of land in Downtown Taipei, the garden today serves as a research centre for the Taiwan Forestry Research Institute as well as a public park for the public to enjoy.
The National Museum of History (國立歷史博物館)[1] and National Taiwan Arts Education Center (國立台灣藝術教育館)[2] are located next to the garden.
The park is home to the remaining areas of the ancient Taipei Lake.
