Li Chih Nine-Bend Bridge Introduction
Formerly known as Hsinchu Park, it is located on Pillow Mountain halfway between the urban area and Eighteen Peaks, covering an area of 190,000 square meters. It was completed in the 5th year of the Republic of China and was affected by shelling during World War II; it was extensively renovated after the restoration of Taiwan. The park is filled with towering pines and cypress trees, vibrant flowers, and features the beautiful Liyu Pond, with a curved bridge and green pavilions composing a stunning scenery. After exiting the park, you can continue along Park Road to Dongda Road; turning left at the intersection in front of the military police can lead you to the zoo, while turning right will take you to the Confucius Temple. Liyu Pond, as its name suggests, is a beautiful and inviting retreat. Surrounded by lush flowers and trees, with koi swimming in the pond and swans gliding on its surface, it creates a delightful, serene atmosphere that can refresh the mind and soothe the spirit. Liyu Pond is located on Park Road, adjacent to the zoo, and is home to koi, mallards, black swans, and rare mandarin ducks, adding vibrancy to the pond. Majestic ancient trees surround the pond, providing shade, with the scent of maple in the air, making it a great pleasure to relax and enjoy the day.
