A former children’s amusement park on a hillside next to Shengji Temple in Zhongzheng District, Keelung. It was presumably established sometime after the 1992 release of the popular Disney film, Aladdin, in association with the temple and nearby Eighteen Arhats Cave (十八羅漢洞). After closing at some unspecified time some parts of the playground were relocated to Zhongzheng Park (中正公園). Although less is written about this playground than the Eighteen Arhats Cave and the temple, they were likely all the work of the Guo family of Chinese medicine practitioners. Abandoned for decades now but recently resurfaced on social media, and it is generally part of the common memory of people growing up in Keelung in the 1980s and 1990s.
