History
In 1959, the Xiao Tainan camp was opened. In 1965, the park's manager Colonel Tow Hongliang designed the park's wooden roller coaster Jet Coaster, which is still standing today.

In 1999, Premier Parks bought Xiao Tainan from the Taiwanese military, which was looking to divest itself of the park for various reasons (including management buying coasters and equipment from the United States, Japan and Mainland China instead of buying ones made locally), for an estimated US$23 million. Under new administration, the park's name was officially changed to Six Flags Taiwan for the park's opening in the 2000 season. Twenty new attractions were added to the park.

In 2005, Six Flags Hurricane Harbor Taiwan opened as part of the 2004-05 expansion after Six Flags bought an open field adjacent to the park. The park's SAMECO Log Flume, "Log Flume", was moved to this area and re-named "Mr. Six's Wild Flume" with new theming. However, it was initially hard for Six Flags to build Hurricane Harbor Taiwan, as much of the attractions' individual parts (including those for Tornado) arrived separately in shipping containers, but the park was able to open on time.

In 2008, they famously declined an offer from Golden Horse to get exclusive building rights, instead opting to acquire a single ZXC-24A Spinning Coaster as a compromise.

In 2020, after the coronavirus, masks were required and provided at the entrance of the park or you can bring your own. the park is now at 25% capacity, the trains now have "zigzag seating" and the queue lines have a 6ft away requirement.
