Mizhong Bridge Introduction
Although Matsu Bridge is only a few dozen meters long, it is an important bridge spanning the Pacific Ocean. Visitors can enjoy the roaring waves on the bridge, but due to the varied coastal topography, it can easily trigger massive waves during northeast monsoons or typhoons, posing dangers. Tourists planning to visit Matsu Bridge are advised to check local weather conditions to avoid hazards. The cliffs above the inner edge of the bridge are known as Matsu Ridge Cliffs, which are home to Taiwan's wild lilies. They bloom in April and May and are very eye-catching, featuring white trumpet-shaped flowers adorned with orange-yellow stamens and complemented by dark green stems and leaves, making them quite charming. If lucky, one might see the pure white flowers dotting the cliffs, creating a beautiful contrast with the white waves at the outer edge of the bridge. In addition to wave-watching and flower-viewing, there is a trail under the bridge for visitors to get close to the seawater, making it a great place to visit on a sunny day to escape the heat in the natural shade of the marine gorge.
