蝙蝠洞公園涼亭夕陽景色

Bat Cave Park is located next to the coastal highway seaside tunnel (at the 75K mark of Taiwan Highway No. 2). It features a pavilion and a parking lot, as well as a bat-watching platform, allowing visitors to observe bats during their breeding season from April to September in the evening. The park can be accessed via community roads (the former railway of the Lian Dong Branch Line has been removed) leading to the seaside community. The road was originally an old railway, and remnants of Haibin Station can still be found, allowing visitors to explore the past prosperity.
