The "Gu Liou Game Park" at Qing Shui's Aofeng Mountain, which opened in May, has become a popular attraction with 34 slides. The police department chose this vibrant local spot for their celebration, adding a distinctive regional flavor to the event.

The 'Gu Liou (meaning smooth and agile) Popularity Award' was specifically designed with local characteristics and a Taiwanese Hokkien pun.
