Zhongzheng Park is located on the slopes of Dashawan Mountain, to the east of Keelung City. The park is renowned for its striking 25-meter-tall white statue of the Goddess of Mercy, which has become an iconic feature of Keelung.
The park offers panoramic views of Keelung City and the harbor and is organized into three levels. The first level features a historic cannon fort. The second level houses a Buddhist library, the Martyrs' Shrine, and the Zhuputan Temple. The temple attracts numerous worshipers on the 15th day of the 7th lunar month for Zhongyuan Ghost Festival. The third level is home to the Guanhai Pavilion, where visitors can enjoy a sweeping view of Keelung and the ocean.
The Goddess of Mercy statue is the park's most prominent landmark and is the largest of its kind in Southeast Asia. Inside the statue, a stairway leads to the top, providing a stunning vantage point. The Zhuputan Temple, a focal point for worshipers during the Zhongyuan Ghost Festival, was originally established to resolve land disputes among early Taiwanese immigrants. It was initially located in Gaosha Park during the Japanese occupation before being relocated to Zhongzheng Park.
