This paper focuses on the aspect of sport, finding out the problem in Taipei's urban planning. Especially, in the view of people's sporting lifestyle from 1895 to now to open up a new way. The following will divide the Taipei's urban planning into three parts, the Japanese occupation (1895-1945), retrocession of Taiwan (1945-1980), localization of Taiwan (1980-). Each period has its own planning values and characteristics in sporting space. Appeal the urban governance to change its way from developmental model to human model and rewrite our life into Taipei.
