Old Camphor Bridge Recreation Area Introduction
Zhangyuan, formerly known as Guzailv, is a village located at the northernmost part of the coastline in Taitung County. During the colonial period in Taiwan, it was an important production area for camphor. To develop the camphor resources in eastern Taiwan, the first Zhangyuan Bridge was constructed in 1937 over the Jiumoteng Creek. Built with cobblestones, the bridge features three arched piers, showcasing the rustic charm of nature.
