Donghe Bridge Recreation Area Introduction
The Donghe Bridge Recreation Area, located at the mouth of the Mawuku River, is an important hub connecting Chenggong Township and Donghe Township in Taitung, and is a must-visit attraction along the East Coast journey. The old and new Donghe Bridges span the river, each showcasing unique characteristics—one ancient, one modern, one gray, and one red. The old bridge, built in 1930, features a design that cleverly integrates arches and a water frame, blending with the terrain and the giant boulders in the river, and is listed as one of the "Hundred Historical Buildings of Taiwan." In contrast, the new bridge boasts a vibrant red steel arch design that is simple, sleek, and highly modern.
