Tao Dan Park (Vietnamese: Công viên Tao Đàn) is an urban park in District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam behind the Independence Palace. It is of the largest parks in the city, covering 10 hectares. Part of the park will be used for the Ho Chi Minh City Metro Line 2's Tao Dan Station.

Bird cafe

The park formerly hosted an outdoor bird cafe that served coffee and attracted songbird owners, who would hang their birdcages and listen to them sing. Now a construction site for the metro station, the cafe was moved across the street from the park to Cong Doan Cafe.
