Urban Literature is a public park designed around the Taichung Literacy Museum in Taichung City, Taiwan. The park covers 15287.57 square meters and links historical sites with open green space. Vintage walls of an old dormitory are preserved as part of a storytelling route. A curved wall at the entrance recalls the narrow streets and alleys of the past. A bamboo forest leads to a literary pathway that ends at a hundred-year-old tree, a poetry wall and a wide square. The design connects local history with daily community life.
