The construction of Jinrui Flood Management Park was completed in 2015. Located at the end of Lane 348 of Section 3 of Neihu Road, the site is built on a natural valley for the purposes of flood and debris control and reducing stormflow volume.

The site is also the first dragonfly theme park in Taipei. According to the Park’s plant and wildlife survey results, a large diversity exists among the population of birds, butterflies, and dragonflies in the vicinity. Over 61 types of dragonflies, counting nearly one-third of Taiwan’s dragonfly species, have been spotted at the park. Lucky visitors may catch a glimpse of red-crested Eurasian moorhens and white-breasted waterhens.
