The Taipei Metro Daan Park station is a metro station on the Tamsui–Xinyi line located beneath Xinyi Rd, Sec. 3 between Xinsheng South Rd. and Jianguo South Rd. in Da'an District, Taipei, Taiwan.^[2] It is located at the northern end of the Daan Forest Park for which it is named. The station was opened on 24 November 2013.^[3]

Station overview

[edit]

The two-level, underground station has an island platform, a naturally-lit hall and a sunken garden.^[4] The naturally-lit hall has two light towers and a light hallway. The sunken garden connects to the hall and has a ring-shaped corridor, pond, cascade and a circular plaza.^[5] The station also has an underground parking lot.

An earlier draft for the station's design did not include the waterfall and sunken, ring-shaped corridor design,^[6] though it still maintained the sunken plaza within the station lobby.^[7]

Construction

[edit]

The station is 226 m (741 ft) long and 22 m (72 ft) wide and excavated to a depth of 19 m (62 ft). It has six entrances, three elevators for the disabled and two vent shafts.^[2] One of the entrances is integrated into a joint development building. The 34-story building is incorporated into exit D and was completed in December 2010.^[8] Due to station construction, old banyan trees originally planted on the sidewalk along Xinyi Road were replanted elsewhere within the park.^[9]

Design

[edit]

The design theme for the station is "Forest Revolution: the City and Park Conversing".^[10]
