Bicycle Scenic Bridge Introduction
To provide a safe and convenient riding space for cyclists, the Pingtung County Government has specially built a bridge exclusively for cyclists and pedestrians, which is a bicycle scenic bridge crossing Provincial Highway No. 1. The entire bridge is primarily constructed with a steel frame, painted white, with the arch section composed of two intercrossed red circular steel tubes, making the striking red arches and streamlined design a focal point. Motorcycles are strictly prohibited from crossing the bicycle scenic bridge. The bridge surface is divided into two parts: a bicycle lane and a pedestrian walkway. The cycling lane has a smooth surface that can accommodate two bicycles passing each other, while the pedestrian walkway is exclusively for pedestrians, paved with wooden boards. Standing on the bridge, one can clearly appreciate the flow of traffic below. The scenic bridge also thoughtfully provides rest areas, bike racks, and recreational route guidance maps for visitors to recharge and plan their trips. When visiting the bicycle scenic bridge, don't forget to stop by the Linluo Sports Park in Pingtung. The park is spacious, lush with greenery, and well-planned with recreational facilities, including an artificial lake, water plaza, leisure trails, baseball fields, basketball courts, and croquet courts. Additionally, the Linluo Sports Park is rich in artistic atmosphere, featuring large public art installations throughout, making it an art park as well. At the square at the entrance of the park stands a prominent tower formed by interconnected circles. Continuing deeper into the park, one finds an increasing number of public art pieces, such as a commemorative statue representing Pingtung's glory, which honors Chen Shuju, who won a taekwondo bronze medal at the Sydney Olympic Games in 2000, and Kuo Yi-Han, who achieved a weightlifting bronze medal. There is also a jet engine trainer, the earliest used in Taiwan, stationed here. After exploring the Linluo Sports Park in Pingtung, visitors not only achieve recreational and athletic goals but also experience a baptism in art.
