Homes around Dahu Park, Jindai Bridge and Kangning Elementary
Dahu Park is on Section 5 of Chengong Road in Neihu. The lake covers about 10 hectares, and there's a trail circling the lake where you can often spot egrets and other waterbirds. This neighbourhood is the residential area south of the park, bordered by Section 4 of Chengong Road to the west, Section 5 of Chengong Road to the east, and Lane 131 of Dahu Street and Dahu Shanzhuang Street to the north. The park itself spans across Xiuhu Village and the neighbouring Dahu Village, with Jindai Bridge located on the Xiuhu Village side.
Out of Taipei's 65 neighbourhoods, this one ranks 16th for greenery and 17th for waste and street cleanliness—both solidly near the top. For everyday walks, there's Dahu Park right nearby, with Bailu Mountain just beside it. There's a pavilion in the middle of the lake where you can take in the whole view, and it's a popular spot for morning activities. Kangning Elementary School is in Qingbai Village, and its catchment area covers all of Ziyun Village plus most of Qingbai Village.
Dahu Park MRT Station and Dahu Elementary School are both actually in the neighbouring Dahu Village, not within this neighbourhood, so be sure to check your route for commuting and school runs. The entire catchment area for Xiuhu Village is Dahu Elementary School, so kids living in Xiuhu Village go to school outside this neighbourhood. Sidewalks rank 49th and medical access ranks 44th out of the 65 neighbourhoods—both toward the lower end.
Dahu was formerly known as Shisifen Pond, and because of the large flocks of egrets, it was also called Bailu Lake (Egret Lake). This pond was originally built during the Qing dynasty for land reclamation and irrigation, reportedly constructed by Lin Xiujun; the Taipei Prefecture Gazetteer from the Japanese colonial era states that it was established in the same period as Gongguan Pond, during the Qianlong era. Construction of Section 5 of Chengong Road and the park facilities began in June 1979; the lake bed was later deepened and the embankments reinforced, giving the park its flood-control function.
