Bicycle Scenic Bridge Introduction
To provide cyclists with a safe and convenient riding space, the Pingtung County Government has specially constructed a bridge exclusively for cyclists and pedestrians, namely the bicycle scenic bridge that spans Provincial Highway 1. The entire bridge primarily features a steel structure, painted white, with its arch made of two intersecting red circular steel tubes. The eye-catching red arcs and streamlined design often become the focal point. Motorcycles are strictly prohibited from passing through the bicycle scenic bridge, which is divided into two parts: a bicycle lane and a pedestrian walkway. The surface of the bicycle lane is smooth enough to accommodate two bicycles passing side by side, while the pedestrian walkway is exclusively for pedestrians, paved with wooden planks. Standing on the bridge, visitors can clearly enjoy the view of traffic flowing beneath the bridge. The scenic bridge also thoughtfully includes rest areas, bike racks, and recreational route maps for visitors to recharge and plan their activities. When visiting the bicycle scenic bridge, don’t forget to take a detour to the Linluo Sports Park in Pingtung. The park is spacious and broad, filled with lush greenery and well-planned recreational facilities, including an artificial lake, a waterside square, walking paths, baseball fields, basketball courts, and croquet courts. In addition, the artistic atmosphere of Linluo Sports Park is quite strong, with large public art installations adorning the area, making it an art park as well. At the entrance square of the park stands a towering structure made of interlocking circles, which features a simple and eye-catching design. As visitors continue into the park, they will encounter more and more public artworks, such as a memorial statue representing Pingtung's glory, honoring Hsu Shu-ju, who won a bronze medal in taekwondo at the 2000 Sydney Olympics, and Kuo Yi-han, who secured a bronze in weightlifting. Additionally, the earliest jet engine trainer used in Taiwan is also displayed here. After exploring Linluo Sports Park in Pingtung, visitors achieve their leisure and exercise goals while also being immersed in an artistic experience.
