  The Taipei Water Park (traditional Chinese: 自來水園區; simplified Chinese: 自来水园区; pinyin: Zìláishuǐ Yuánqū) is a water park in Zhongzheng District, Taipei, Taiwan.
  
  ## History
  
  Since 2000, the Taipei Water Department had repaired and restored Taipei Pumping Room and set up the Museum of Drinking Water for the public. The first phase work completed in 2002, combined with part of space of Gongguan Water Treatment Plant and renamed it as Taipei Water Park.
  
  On 27 July 2016, a fire broke out at the park, prompting the evacuation of the 1,200 visitors. The fire started from a solar panel grid.
  
  ## Transportation
  
  The museum is accessible within walking distance south West from Gongguan Station of the Taipei Metro.
