Bicycle Scenic Bridge Introduction
To provide a safe and convenient riding space for cyclists, the Pingtung County Government has specially constructed a bridge exclusively for cyclists and pedestrians, which is the cycling landscape bridge that crosses Provincial Highway No. 1. The entire bridge features a steel frame structure, painted white, with two red circular steel pipes crossing each other to form the arch section, making the striking red arcs and streamlined design eye-catching. Motorcycles are strictly prohibited from passing over the cycling landscape bridge, which is primarily divided into a bike lane and a pedestrian walkway. The bike lane has a smooth surface, accommodating two bicycles passing each other, while the pedestrian walkway, exclusively for foot traffic, is paved with wooden planks. Standing on the bridge, one can clearly enjoy the flow of traffic beneath, with vehicles coming and going. The landscape bridge also thoughtfully provides rest areas, bike racks, and recreational route guides for visitors to recharge and plan their activities. When visiting the cycling landscape bridge, don’t forget to take a side trip to Pingtung Linluo Sports Park, which occupies a spacious area filled with lush greenery. The park is well-equipped with rest facilities, including an artificial lake, a waterfront plaza, leisure walking paths, a baseball field, a basketball court, and a croquet field. Additionally, the park has a strong artistic atmosphere, featuring large public art installations, making it a true art park. Standing in the square at the park entrance is a prominent tower made of interconnected circles, which has a simple yet striking design. As you continue walking into the park, the number of public artworks increases, such as a commemorative statue representing Pingtung’s glory, honoring Chen Shu-ju, who won a bronze medal in Taekwondo at the 2000 Sydney Olympics, and Kuo Yi-han, who secured a bronze medal in weightlifting. There is also an early model of Taiwan's jet engine trainer aircraft on display. After exploring Pingtung Linluo Sports Park, visitors achieve both recreational and athletic goals while experiencing an artistic immersion.
