Daxi Yuemei to Longtan Sankeng Riverside Scenic Green Corridor Introduction
Have you ever tried the "One Day Double Old Streets" experience? Starting from Daxi Bridge, head towards Longtan Sankeng, where you can enjoy the incredibly relaxing riverside scenery, historical century-old monuments, rich primordial ecology, local specialty snacks, and the leisurely pace of life that remains unchanged for decades. It's a complete package that will excite everyone, whether you're a local or a visitor! The Daxi Yuemei to Longtan Sankeng Riverside Scenic Green Corridor is approximately 7,190 meters long, connecting Daxi Old Street Riverside Trail, Yuemei Bicycle Path, Shimen Dazun Bicycle Path, and Sankeng Old Street Bicycle Path along the Dahan River. Passing through Heping Old Street to Daxi Bridge, you'll appreciate the beautifully decorated street houses and the bridge with its semi-circular dome shape, as a Baroque sonata unfolds leisurely. After crossing Daxi Bridge, continue upstream toward Kanjin Bridge, with lush green fields accompanying you, and the air filled with the faint aroma of rice and leeks. Visiting in August or September, you can see a vast sea of leek flowers at Fanziliao, a romantic view that rivals the snow of Tung flower blossoms in May! After passing the Erkan Rest Area, you can walk along the Dahan River bank to reach Sankeng Natural Ecological Park. Stand on the wooden pavilion to quietly observe the emerald green lake, or stroll along the arch bridge and stream, unknowingly alleviating the fatigue accumulated from daily life, making your journey even more meaningful. Walking about 2 kilometers on Yongfu Road, you'll enter Sankeng Old Street, known as "Longtan's First Street," where traditional lifestyles are still clearly visible; at the entrance, women chat while doing laundry in the black and white wash. Yongfu Temple, a second-class historic site, has been the center of faith for residents for over 200 years; next to it, the Qingqian Mansion, once a grand family in the Qing Dynasty, has returned to simplicity. From Sankeng Old Street, you can access the Shimen Dazun Bicycle Path, where highlights such as Sankeng Spring Water, Butterfly Flower Corridor, Coffee Trail, and Tung Flower Viewing Path add delightful surprises to your journey.
