Carton Box Theme Park

Ever wondered what a theme park made entirely of cardboard would be like? Look around you. We’re at the Carton Box Theme Park in Taichung, Taiwan. This isn’t your average amusement park. Carton King Creativity Park, its official name, is a testament to the power of imagination and resourcefulness. Founded in 2009 by Mr. Huang Fangliang, the general manager of Jintang Paper Products, Carton Box Theme Park showcases the incredible versatility of cardboard. Nearly everything here, from the towering replica of Big Ben to the whimsical windmills and even the restaurant furniture, is crafted from this humble material. The park isn’t just about static displays. You can climb the wrought-iron Sky Trails for a unique view of the park. It’s a bit of a climb, but it’s worth it to see the cardboard creations from above. Feeling hungry? Dine at the park’s restaurant where even the hot pots are made of paper. The food might not be award-winning, but the experience is certainly unique. Don’t miss the souvenir shop packed with cardboard treasures. You’ll find everything from messenger bags to intricate paper lanterns. For a non-cardboard treat, head to the Honey Museum for some delicious honey ice cream. Looking for a hands-on activity? The Cardboard Art Gallery offers build-your-own cardboard furniture and other items. And for a fun ride, hop on the cardboard train that loops around the park. While you explore, keep an eye out for the eight stamp stations. Collect all eight, and you’ll receive a special gift. As you leave Carton Box Theme Park, you’ll carry with you not just souvenirs but a newfound appreciation for the magic that can be created from simple cardboard.
