Any active flying fields or RC shops in Taipei?

I’ll be in Taipei, Taiwan next week. I’d love to visit a field and watch some flying (not planning to bring any planes with) and visit a big hobby shop, but I haven’t been able to find any fields or shops. Maybe they don’t advertise in English. Does anybody have any leads? Thanks!

Thanks, that’s for me pointed in the right direction! That particular field was closed down a couple years ago, but after finding that on Google maps it recommended a few other places, and one of them was a great field called FuDe Keng flying field. Coincidentally, it’s built in top of an old landfill, just like my home field. It was packed this morning with at least 50 fliers. There were at least five planes in the air most of the time. Everyone was super friendly and chatty, even though I don’t speak Chinese. We had a great time visiting!

This is the field…
