Ta-an Forest Park (often just called Ta-an Park) is one of the
largest parks in Taipei. On weekends and holidays, you’ll
find many people there engaged in all sorts of activities from
sunrise until late in the evening. On weekdays, it’s quieter
but still a popular place for walking and jogging.
Among the many trees in the park are quite a few banyan trees.
The “trunk” of a banyan tree actually looks like many
tangled roots going into the ground. This small cache is located in
the west-central part of the park among the roots of a medium-size
banyan tree. The tree is located near a red clay path that runs
north and south along the west side of the park.
Since the cache is located near a path, you’ll need to be
careful that no one is nearby when you remove and replace the
cache. On Saturday and Sunday mornings, this will be quite
difficult because of all the people. Best to look for the cache on
weekdays or weekend afternoons. Or in the evening with a
flashlight.
Original contents of the cache: two coins and a toy key
ring.
