Thrill Rides at Taipei Children’s Amusement Park

The Taipei Children’s Amusement Park is located in the northern part of the Shilin district. While it’s certainly no Disneyland, it’s a great place to take children, being geared towards mainly younger kids.

Altogether, there are 13 main rides to choose from and a handful of smaller rides. The park is only a few acres in size but there’s enough variety in rides to keep children of most ages entertained.

The Swing Ship, Drop Tower and of course the giant Ferris Wheel are the most popular rides, and serve up enough thrills to get pulses racing.

There’s a large indoor section with many fun games machines and an activity play centre.

There’s plenty of food options on site, and a large food hall serving Asian cuisine.

Located about 5 minutes walk from the Taipei Astronomical Museum and 15 minutes from Shilin Night Market, a visit to all of these would easily fill a whole day.

Taipei Children’s Amusement Park doesn’t ever get too busy, and a visit on a Saturday evening when the sun has gone down and entry is free is definitely the best time to visit.
