Since 1980, the Taiwanese government has promoted the teaching of creative thinking and the incubation of creativity. The education in Taiwan breaks its reliance on traditional teaching methods. The new methods followed a unique and innovative educational design, and demonstrated the characteristics and diversities among various regions by integrating art instruction with environmental context. The objective of this study was to emphasize the importance of creativity in activation the environment by researching before and after renovated parks along Wufu Road in Kaohsiung. By employing a qualitative case study design, we counted the number of pedestrians and conducted on site observations of 3 parks to identify how the pedestrians used the parks. According to the results, we proposed 5 suggestions. (a) Historical landmarks and public facilities should be maintained and repaired periodically to ensure completely safe and scenic park environments. (b) People, space, and time constitute the unique vocabulary of a region, which directly influences environmental activation. (c) Increasing the number of illumination devices installed can increase tourists' and local residents' willingness to use the parks at night. (d) Parent-child recreational activities and walking needs must be considered to attract pedestrians to activate the region. (e) In addition to reconstruction, daily maintenance plans must be established to achieve the goal of activating the environment.
