Bicycle Scenic Bridge Introduction
In order to provide cyclists with a safe and convenient riding space, the Pingtung County Government has specially built a bridge exclusively for cyclists and pedestrians, known as the Bicycle Scenic Bridge, which crosses Provincial Highway No. 1. The entire bridge is primarily constructed with a steel frame, painted white, with two intersecting red circular steel pipes forming the arch, creating a striking focal point with its eye-catching red curves and streamlined design. Motorcycles are prohibited from passing through the bicycle scenic bridge, which is primarily divided into a bike lane and a pedestrian walkway. The bike lane is smooth and can accommodate two bicycles passing each other, while the pedestrian walkway is exclusively for walkers, paved with wooden planks. Standing on the bridge, one can clearly enjoy the flow of traffic beneath. The scenic bridge also features resting areas, bike racks, and recreational route guides, allowing visitors to recharge and plan their activities. When visiting the Bicycle Scenic Bridge, don't forget to also explore the Pingtung Linluo Sports Park, which boasts a spacious and vast area filled with flourishing trees and greenery. The park is well-equipped with leisure facilities, including an artificial lake, a waterscape plaza, leisure pathways, baseball fields, basketball courts, and croquet courts. Additionally, the park has a strong artistic atmosphere, with large public art installations scattered throughout, making it truly an art park. At the entrance plaza of the park stands a tall tower formed by interconnected circles, with a simple yet striking design. Continuing into the park, the number of public artworks increases, such as memorial statues representing the glory of Pingtung, notably honoring Cheng Shu-Ju, who won a bronze medal in Taekwondo at the Sydney 2000 Olympics, and Kuo Yi-Han, who won a bronze medal in weightlifting. The park also houses one of Taiwan's earliest jet engine training aircraft. After exploring the Pingtung Linluo Sports Park, visitors can not only achieve their recreational and sports goals but also experience a baptism of art.
