What it is
Xpark is a modern metropolitan aquarium co-developed with Yokohama Hakkeijima Sea Paradise, opened in 2020 in the Cocobear A19 area of Taoyuan's Zhongli district. Its 13 themed halls across three floors prioritize visual impact and immersion over traditional museum-style education. The centerpiece Formosa Zone features a nine-meter-tall, 1,000-ton ocean tank filled with rays, hammerhead sharks, and rare Japanese bullhead sharks. Other zones include the hypnotic Jellyfish Healing gallery, a wrap-around 180-degree coral tank, a Penguin Adventure room with King and Magellanic penguins, interactive touch pools, a projection-mapped Rainforest room, a Freezing Zone with seals, and the iconic Xcafé where penguins occasionally swim through overhead glass tubes. Live animal performances (featuring capybaras, seals, and parrots) run several times daily in an outdoor theater. The entire venue is stroller- and wheelchair-friendly, and QR codes throughout the exhibits unlock bonus video content for kids.
Highlights
- Formosa Zone ocean tank — a 9-meter-tall, 1-million-liter curved wall of water holding 10,000 fish including hammerhead sharks, giant rays, and a Japanese bullhead shark rarely seen outside Japan
- Jellyfish Healing gallery — a darkened room of tall glass cylinders filled with jellyfish drifting through shifting colored light and ambient music; the most photographed spot in the aquarium
- Penguin Adventure — home to both Magellanic and King penguins; timed feedings let visitors watch staff hand-feeding the birds up close
- 180-degree Coral Exploration tank — a concave wrap-around display on the 3rd floor that projects coral patterns onto the floor, making you feel submerged in a reef
- Temperate Zone touch pools — shallow hands-on tanks where you can touch sea stars, hermit crabs, and sea cucumbers, plus live reptiles and amphibians nearby
- Xcafé penguin tube — the café sits beneath a horizontal glass swim tunnel; on lucky visits, penguins swim directly overhead while you sip your drink
Good to know
- Plan around 2–3 hours for a full visit following the recommended floor route; going off-route can be disorienting since the entrance is on the 2nd floor and exit on the 1st
- Live animal performances typically run at 11:00, 13:00, 15:00, and 17:00 daily (plus a 18:20 show on Saturdays) — check the current schedule at the venue and time your visit to catch one
Frequently asked
- How do I get to Xpark from Taoyuan HSR or the Airport MRT?
- Take Exit 2 from Taoyuan HSR Station (Airport MRT A19) and walk about 6–10 minutes through Gloria Outlets — Xpark's entrance is on the 2nd floor of Landmark Plaza. No shuttle or taxi is needed, and the route is covered and easy to navigate.
- How long should I budget for a visit to Xpark?
- Most visitors spend around 2 to 3 hours exploring all 13 exhibition zones at a comfortable pace. If you plan to catch a live animal performance (usually held at 11:00, 13:00, 15:00, and 17:00), factor in an extra 20–30 minutes and time your arrival accordingly.
- Are Xpark tickets available with discounts or coupons online?
- Yes — tickets are available through platforms like Klook and KKday, which often offer discounted prices versus the gate rate. A joint THSR + Xpark ticket package is also available if you're traveling from Taipei by high-speed rail. Compare live prices and coupons on Alvin Travel to find the best deal.
