Jing'an Suspension Bridge Introduction
The Jing'an Suspension Bridge, located in the Shifen District of New Taipei City, is colorful and eye-catching, situated between Shifen Village and Nanshan Village, close to Shifen Station and Shifen Old Street. It serves as an important connecting bridge and is the most prominent landmark in the Shifenliao area. The Jing'an Suspension Bridge has a long history; it was initially built for transporting coal, and after coal mining ceased, it was converted into a pedestrian-only thoroughfare, which it has faithfully served ever since. The suspension bridge is 128 meters long and connects Shifen Village and Nanshan Village. Built in 1947 (the 36th year of the Republic of China), it was originally constructed to transport coal. Positioned near Shifen Railway Station and the old street, the blue and white suspension bridge has also become a popular photo spot for tourists.
